To show you these horrendous Christmas cards

[Dairyqueen2]

I actually find them quite offensive!

Offensive? Why?

Crisp well for SOME people, Christmas retains it's original message.

Offensive why, how?

This Christmas I will be very merry as I will be full of gin and champagne so 🤷🏻‍♀️These are my kind of cards

Original message a pagan holiday commandeered by the church?

Not in the best taste, but not offensive

Eh?
I don't even like Prosecco. But offensive? Hardly.

Granted they miss the whole idea of Christmas (Christ's birth, that whole thing!) but offensive? I'm not seeing that. Tacky yes, but the whole gin o'clock bollocks makes me roll my eyes. This is just more of that to me. I wouldn't buy them but if someone else did, hey ho (ho, ho)

Unless they were given to your toddler with a bottle of gin, I wouldn't waste time being offended

I'm not offended but I do think they're pretty horrible.

@Dairyqueen2 - I don't drink alcohol. I found them still very inoffensive.

Not particularly funny, and certainly not clever.

But not everyone that celebrates Christmas is religious, and some do use it as an excuse for a party, so I can see it has its place.

I don't think Jesus would spend too much time worrying about it though. He had more important things to be getting on with.

Tacky but not offensive imho.

Well they’re a bit tacky, but not offensive. If you find them offensive because they’re not about Christ’s birth, what about all the Christmas cards with penguins, reindeer, Father Christmas, snowy cottages etc? They’re not about Jesus either.

Offensive 😂😂😂

Op. How can a card offend you? You're choosing to be offended by the cards. The messages may be silly but why are you choosing to be offended by them?
Just look at them and move on. Life is far too short to be offended by silly messages on cards.

Far worse cards out there than these.

Not offensive at all. I bought my friend a card that said I wish her a white Christmas but if it runs out go onto the red We both found it funny.

tacky - yes
offensive - no

Contact the Daily Mail 😆

Crispwell for SOME people, Christmas retains it's original message.

So don't buy these cards then. 🤷🏼‍♀️

They are pretty naff but they aren't offensive this is offensive - to some anyway.

Is alcohol offensive? Or just when it’s mixed with Xmas?

Alcohol is a BIG part of my Christmas.

People have been getting hammered at Christmas for as long as there has been Christmas.

Get a grip.

They don't offend me as such but they are in bad taste. 'oh come let us adore Gin' is particularly distasteful but I would just eye roll and walk on by if I'm honest.
I can see why people would be offended by them, Christmas is a christian celebration of the birth of Jesus so to replace his name with Gin isn't great but then again most Christmas cards are covered in Snowmen and Reindeer and they have nothing to do with Jesus either!

What, a pagan feasting period? This being before Christianity came and overlaid it with its own festival, of course. So in the original context of a mid-winter festival, the cards are fine.
