[livejournal.com profile] rataxis has pointed out to me that Christmas is not how one spells Chanukah. Well. Ok. So, since I am pagan AND Jewish but I live in a country where it's mainly Christmas, I will be referring to the festive season as Yulenukamas. No, I'm not including things like Diwali and that because then it'd just get silly, and I'm only including the ones which are relevant to meeeee. Yes, this is a bit of a mickey-take, before anyone gets all aggy.
(Yes, I know better than to equate the holidays; I just liked the word "Yulenukamas".)

The Aldari church uses "Yahoo YuleHanaMas!". The appropriate response to such a greeting is "Sping".

I was raised celebrating a Christmas that had nothing to do with religion, and I see no reason to stop now! :-)

I've been using, as a greeting, "Happy Non-denominational Solstice Bush Day" for years.

It just seemed easier, and made people laugh.

I took up calling it "Defaultiday," since it's [Insert Your Culture's "Burn Something and Maybe The Sun Will Come Back" Holiday Here]. As always, YMMV.
