Poet John Lydgate once wrote; “You can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.” And at no point in the year is that more applicable than the holidays.
So if you’re having a tough time keeping all your friends, family, co-workers and other associates happy with your Christmas Hanukkah Kwanzaa holiday cheer, this generic winter advent calendar is sure to offend no one. Instead of the traditional 25 days counting down to Christmas, the calendar has just 6 leading to the holiday of your choice. And instead of finding a delicious chocolate every day behind those perforated paper doors, there’s a small plastic novelty toy that’s guaranteed to be 100% non-offensive. They’re just $4.95 from Archie McPhee, and I’d be tempted to pick one except that I find the color blue to be incredibly offensive, and intend to start an email campaign letting Mr. McPhee know just how disgusted I am with this product.
[ Politically Correct, All-Inclusive, Non-Denominational Generic Winter Holiday Countdown Calendar ] VIA [ Everything below $29.99 ]
Bastards forgot that we have summer in the southern hemisphere! 😉
You americans will one day die from your politically correct stuff. Get a grip, because this style of yours is spreading into the world like virus.
They've got to be kidding. I think we need an advent calendar that counts down the days until we as a people get the stick out of our arse and quit getting offended over such trivial things.
lol!
I for one, am also tired of just about every commercial saying “here's a great HOLIDAY gift for your friends and family” when just last year they were saying Christmas.
But as to all the people complaining, I think it's meant more as a way of just making fun of all of it.
I agree, I am American, but I am getting tired of all the “OMG, that's not PC” and the like.
do we want to try to not offend anybody? sure! but people are taking it too far!
(does anything I said make sense?)
