Didn't we already have a worldbuilding thread that nobody participated in?

What kind of mouth breathing creep hyphenates Xmas, anyway?


I have a random thought but I'm still working on it, just had to throw that out there in the meantime.

I’m using an IPad Pro and thus letters are spread further apart. I will edit my post that apparently autocorrect did nothing to

That wasn't directed at you, haha. I just saw "X-mas" at free top of the page.

It wasn’t a response to you. I noticed that the first three letters of my previous post were replaced with a t, making was replaced with a combination of letters and commas that wasn’t a word. I fixed my botched post after writing that/

"X-mas" is actually just shorthand for Christmas, due to how the Greeks (who gave Jesus the moniker in the first place) spell "Christ".

Yoink was upset about the hyphen specifically. He's dictating it must be Xmas not X-Mas.

Let's go for X'Mas.
