Yes, it occurred to me that I'd replied this way a few months ago, it wasn't intentional. It's no biggie, I just find Kirk's pimpfluence astonishing (That's a good thing in case you weren't sure).
And you'd be suprised how white he is in person. 😛

You're only supposed to call it "xmas" if you hate Jesus. 😛
that really sounds like I made that up but I think its something along those lines.
Originally posted by Will EverittThe "x", or rather a chi, is the second letter of the Greek word for "fish", "ichthys". ICHTHYS was used as an acronym for "iesous christos theou huios soter" (Jesus Christ, son of God, saviour). So the "x" stands also for "Christ".
