I have never had anyone get upset that I didn't acknowledge their holiday but apparently others have had that experience. I have also never had anyone get mad for an seemingly inappropriately worded acknowledgement of their holiday either but apparently those people also exsist. It does take all kinds.

All kinds of sayings out there. I don't really live my day to day life based on quote snippets. I just go day to day trying to be as kind as I can to others.
