I wish Christmas would stop existing so my dreams of a secular socialist democracy could come into fruition.

Belgium and Netherlands should be the same either "Zalig Kerstfeest" or "Hartelijke Kerstgroeten" (I've never heard that one before in real life).

And they speak two different languages in Belgium: Dutch and French.

Dutch version isn't right :suspicious:
it should be
Gelukkig Kerstfeest
or
Fijne Kerstdagen
or somthing like that
NOT Hartelijke Kerstroeten :S
'Kerstroeten' isn't even a word :huh: :blah: :no: :upset:

They're not. In the USA people say "Merry Christmas" but in England and Australia people say "Happy" because merry can mean being drunk.

In chinese we usually say and hear "Sheng Tan JIEH Kuai Loh "
"If you buy a bag of peanuts in this town they'll write a song about you."
