for Jewish people to feel put out. Oh, come on, don't look at me like that. You know it's true. Every year around the holidays Jewish people have to endure countless indignities. Consider:
1. 4 weeks of Christmas songs on all the radio stations! If it wasn't for Adam Sandler would there be a single song about Chanukah?
2. Giant inflatable lawn decorations. As if christmas lights, nativity scenes, and reindeer replicas weren't bad enough now there are inflatable decorations of everything from snowglobes to the word NOEL. Funny but I don't see any giant inflatable menorahs!
3. No where to go to eat on Christmas Day forcing us to create a tradition of eating Chinese food and going to see a movie. On the other hand everything is open during Chanukah. What's up with that?
4. Having to go shopping. Chanukah wasn't originally intended to be a gift giving holiday but it's involved into one so that we can feel like we're not being left out this time of year. And to make matters worse we have to go out and buy presents for eight nights not just one!
5. Having to listen to carolers none of whom are singing dreidel, dreidel.
6. Having to see thousands of imposter Santa Clauses on street corners and in department stores while there has never been one person dressed up like the Chanukah man.
Now what say you to that?
