Let's talk about some dumb shit.
Let's talk about those Starbucks cups.
They used to have like snowflakes and reindeer on them.
I actually understand why people were fucking offended by that.
You know, it's fucking annoying.
I don't understand how a religion can be offensive.
And it's not even the religion, right?
But it kind of is because that Santa Claus shit,
that's the shit that Christians tell their kids.
You know, Santa Claus, you know, oh, you better watch out.
You better not cry.
You better not pout.
I'm telling you why Santa Claus is coming to town.
He has some silver bells.
He has some mistletoe.
He's riding along in a one-horse open sleigh for goodness sake.
Oh, Dasher and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen,
Johnny Mathis, and something else.
Yeah, that's what you tell your kids
before you tell them the real made-up story
about Jesus dying for your sins.
And I just don't understand.
Like somewhere along the line,
wishing somebody a Merry Christmas became like offensive.
Like if somebody said to me, you know,
Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa,
I wouldn't be like,
I'm a fucking Christian.
That's offensive.
Don't say that to me.
It's your fucking religion.
It's what you say around the holidays.
I don't have a problem with it.
Well, you got so fucking politically correct,
you can't even have a fucking snowflake and a reindeer on it
because some poor baby has a fucking menorah
or a fucking whatever the fuck else you got going on this time of year.
What gives a fuck?
Put a menorah on it.
I don't give a shit.
Can you imagine that?
Can you imagine being so fucking childish that you fucking,
if there's a goddamn cup in it
and they got some fucking Christmas shit from a different religion
that for some reason that ruins your experience going to a coffee house
to the point that they have to change the cup.
It's not that it's a red cup.
It's not that they,
whether they have it or not,
it's why they change it.
I think.
If that's even the fucking story,
that's as far as I could tell.
And I got to be honest with you,
like,
stories like that is when liberals love to come out
with their smug fucking looks on their faces.
You know,
like that fucking broad there that dances around and shit.
It's big.
Yeah, it's just a cup.
Yeah, it's just a cup.
Whatever.
Yeah, it's just a zillion fucking people
that are of that religion
that kind of like the little snowflake in a reindeer.
Yeah, fuck all of them.
Fuck all of them.
But this fucking guy over here becomes a woman.
Then all of a sudden,
everybody's supposed to fucking,
you know what I mean?
It doesn't make any sense.
They're all about,
like,
if one person has a fucking problem,
then they're like,
oh,
everybody needs to stop.
But if everybody's into one thing,
they're like,
yeah,
fuck you one thing.
I don't understand their math on that.
Can't you be respectful to everyone?
I probably missed the whole point of that fucking story,
but as far as I realize,
that people,
you know,
they took off snowflakes and reindeers
because somebody in fucking,
I don't know where,
bitched
that the cup hurt their feelings last Christmas.
Is that what happened?
You know,
Bill,
it kind of helps if you actually know what the story is
before you have a strong point of view on it,
or at least a loud point of view.
Oh,
fuck you.
How about that?
Fuck you.
In the holiday season.
I'm just glad I don't fucking drink coffee.
What a fucking waste of time that is.
You know what I mean?
I'm not saying it's not delicious
once you get over how bitter it is
and you got to pour a pound of fucking sugar in it.
I'm just saying the amount of times
you just see people standing in these fucking lines
at the airport
or outside of Starbucks
and you're like,
is Bruce Springsteen in there?
Is he playing that coffee house?
Because that's the only fucking reason
you could ever explain
standing in a line that fucking long
to be like,
let me get a fucking frappe,
copa, mocha,
whatever the fuck you guys get.
Junkies.
Do you understand that?
I wouldn't stand in a line like that for beer.
Liar!
I've done it at games.
At least I got a good buzz going, right?
Well, I guess coffee's a drug too.
Jesus,
I'm just really destroying
all my opinions here this week, right?
You guys don't even need to do it.
I always feel bad for those.
I don't feel bad for them.
It's just like,
why?
That alone would be enough to quit.
You know what I mean?
