Another Reason I Hate Xmas

It's not the reason for the season, it's just a pissing contest.

Residents of Long Beach, New York are whining over a seven foot Christmas tree because it's next to a 20 foot tall menorah in the plaza in front of City Hall. They feel that the tiny tree in the shadow of the huge Hanukkah symbol was an insult to the Christian community. How festive and in the true spirit of the holidays!

City managers looked as far as Canada for a bigger tree but couldn't find one until Wednesday, locating a 20 foot blue spruce to ease the symbol envy of the fanatic residents. God forbid something be more important than Xmas, even if it ends more than two weeks before.

The old spruce tree was pruned of its lights, dug up, and taken to a mall. Suck it, mall folk! And yes, that's a scooter menorah! .
