For those of you at least 30 years of age, did any of you know of anyone that had issues of a serious type with allergies? It seems to be an issue of the last 10-15 years.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm not that old (37) but when I was a kid we all ate dirt and rolled around in germs and nobody got sick. These days it seems kids are sick if you look at them the wrong way.

People are dicks. I told the girl I wanted to say something to them but she said it wasn't worth it and people talk to them like that all the time :(

I'm a total hypocrite when it comes to this subject. On one hand, I wish we could still say Merry Christmas. To me, Christmas has absolutely nothing to do with Jesus. It's about spending time with family, eating a good dinner and hoping you got the gift you've been waiting for. It doesn't bother me one bit when people say Happy Holidays, because I understand why they're saying it. On the other hand I think it's absolute bullshit that some religious politician refuses to remove the 10 commandments from a government judicial building. They're your beliefs, not mine.

It's not religions fault...it's the overly sensitive religious people who are at fault. You can't blame religion for people's actions. No where in the bible does it say "thou shall chastise anyone who sayeth Happy Holidays"

It was part of the 15 commandments, but we all know what happened to 5 of them:

Which makes the original post by Rose illogical

I haven't worked retail in over a decade but I just don't remember this being a big deal back then. What happened in the last 10+ years?

They even did away with Christmas/Halloween/Valentine/ect... parties at schools as well. My youngest daughter didn't get a single classroom party even though my two older ones did. They even allowed parents to come to the classroom parties back then.

People stopped making the blind assumption that everyone in the country shares their religious beliefs?

Personal experience...

I was in line at the grocery store waiting to check out with a gallon of ice cream...The guy right in front of me had already checked out and was showing pics of his grandkids to the checker who he obviously knew..This went on for a few minutes and I could feel the ice cream getting soft..The cashier's eyes kept darting back and forth. She could guess I was getting impatient. Finally I said to the guy.." hey man, my ice cream is getting soft here, can you show the clerk your grandkids pics on your own time?"..I was pissed cause he showed absolutely no concern that I was waiting to check out while he was BSing with the clerk. He knew I was standing there and could have let me go, but he was acting big with his grandkids pics...

I should have phrased if differently. Maybe asking him if I could check out cause of the ice cream etc, but I was pissed and you know how that goes.. Anyway, the guy shot me a dirty look, and left. The clerk apologized for making me wait, and I checked out.

..My point is, we all get pissed about something, and it may have nothing to do with whats obvious. Maybe those 2 old geezers were pissed at that girl for some other shit, and that was their chance to get a dig in.. I wonder if someone in the store thought I was anti-grandkids...lol

wtf is this drivel?

But it does say you can stone them. And their families.
