while it seems everyone else says ‘happy christmas’

which imo is a way better phrase, it’s very … pragmatic. happiness is more attainable than merriment. how often is anyone merry?

    Who is “everyone else” in this story?

    The only place I know that days Happy Christmas is the UK

    In Australia, it’s merry

      I’m from the UK, and I’ve always said merry.

      I doubt it’s any more prevalent in a specific country and more likely specific to individual families and friends.

      For example, i always thought it was an american thing to say happy christmas.
