Merry Fucking Christmas!

Speaking of how one feels about holidays that coincide with death ("Grief Is a Bee..."), I think of Jody Williams wondering how to handle the holidays the year after her brother died on Christmas, and shortly after my own mother killed herself.
She told me she'd found the perfect Christmas cards.
They read:
Merry Fucking Christmas!
I think a lot of people could relate, even people who never experienced death on holidays. But JW decided not to send them after all.
