The 'c word'

Christmas is Christmas. The "c word" is not referring to Christmas, something quite different. All over social media people saying "is it too early to talk about the c word?" Stop it.

I use the C word often and it ain’t Christmas!

Isn't that the joke?!

I hate the c word (not Christmas). I gave a girl in my class a right telling off using the word yesterday

I don't mind the c word but I love Christmas. Just say Christmas, right? It's not witty or clever.

@Jbraise but what if she was just confused and did actually mean Christmas?

Christmas is a bit of a c@#& though.

@ThisHereMamaBear

She didn’t shorten it she actually referred to someone as a fat cunt (she’s 7)

@Jbraise I thought you meant you called the child a cunt Grin

@BreakfastAtLitanies

Very tempting sometimes x

As a crafter, who started making Christmas stock in June, I use the 'C' word to mean Christmas, as in discussions with colleagues we all agree its very early to be talking about 'C' preparations, but has to be done.

I know it's not witty or clever, but I use it never the less.

I hate the other c word and always correct people to ask if they mean vagina. I think it's the hard c sound I dislike.

@Jbraise oh dear!

I thought you'd get booted off on here for writing cunt. I feel quite liberated.

I suppose it depends if you are a Merry Christmas sort or a Merry Cuntmas sort...

ThisHereMamaBear · 12/09/2019 20:42

@DPotter what Christmas stock do you make?

@ThisHereMamaBear

DPotter · 12/09/2019 22:13
