look up any word, like leh:
A day people should have off of work, regardless of religion or beliefs, yet your asshole, nazi of a boss won't let you because his religion or beliefs don't match the holiday's.
Are you working this holiday? Yeah, even though I'm not supposed to.

A politically correct and inclusive term for Thanksgiving and Christmas encouraged by the liberals.
It'd be considered a borderline hate crime to have a "Christmas sale", nowadays the PC term is "Holiday sale"!

a) a time of year when you're supposed to sit back and reflect and give thanks and shit like that but actually everyone just gets drunk and eats a lot and spends lots of money because our society advocates wasting insane amounts of dough to "celebrate"

b) a really, really kick-ass song by green day. a dark political "anthem" that truly encompasses america's depressing military situation
a) oh no another holiday is coming up which means that i'm gonna have to go waste more money on crap-ass presents and make sure we have plenty of gramps's old hangover remedy

Can i get another amen
There's a flag wrapped around a score of men
A gag
A plastic bag on a monument
i beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
this is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

Something thats impossible to enjoy at my house because every holiday ( Especially independance day) My father drinks heavily, throws his old vietnam uniform on, grabs his m-14, and fires at my neighbor who just happens to be vietnamese while he shouts " we won the war you brown cocksuckers! Burn in hell you motherfuckers!" Not the best time of the year.
my neighbor packs severe heat and i fear hes going to turn it on us someday soon.
