Happy belated Easter to my western-Christian readers.

March 25th, 2008

Dear western-Christian friends, I forgot to wish you a happy Easter, which was obviously on Sunday, 23rd.

I did so because a couple of people force-fed it to me and I already had a couple of cases where people forgot my Slava on 31st January (that’s my family’s patron saint once again! More of a pagan thing that Christian, but, well, Serbs are an interesting sort of people and probably not completely Christian either…) and my Christmas on 07th, yet, as usual, insisted to wish me a merry Christmas on 25th December and I simply decided not to bother at all. Instead of that, I spent the weekend finalising stuff for two new one-time design jobs that I snatched during March…a successful month indeed.

Also, the chocolate bunnies mania on one side and overusing of religion and making crosses out of everything on the other side totally freaks me out! As I always say, I hate comsumer-mas and consumer-ster; but at the same time, I think various backwards habits don’t have a place in XXI century. He’s risen? OK, sure he’s risen and although I’m not religions, I believe Jesus was not a myth and I respect all of the things he tried to teach people (and failed, as people seriously suck), it was, alongside Utopia and Marxism in theory the only idealistic thing in this world…but attending a mass doesn’t wash bad things you (no one in particular, any person!) might have done and it won’t change your life. It just might make you feel calm for a day or two.

But, since I know how it feels when people don’t care and when they think their culture is the only one in the world, and today is probably Easter Tuesday, happy belated Easter! I hope you all spent a nice weekend with your families. Love from me!

P.S. Mine is on 27th April this year and YES, it was on the same day as yours last year and in 2004, but NOT in 2008. I’d put money on 3 people on my friends’ list forgetting it.:p

P.P.S. If you respond to this with “Happy Easter” and you aren’t my clown-commenter; I’ll delete it and write you a long email about what I call comments taken straight from the bottom of your butt

Don’t (over) use Flea’s quotes here, people! I know he’s smart and unique, but(t) using his sentences before I have a chance to do it is simply not fair!

PS- I like chocolate bunnies stuff. However, talking 24/7 about Jesus, AND supporting the troops at the same time, now that’s something I do not understand.

I’m a Catholic, but as someone said, what does a rabbit have to do with Jesus anyway… eh, I don’t celebrate it at all, and I didn’t even attend church this year. I’ll probably end up in Hell, but this world is already Hell for me.

Jesus turned water into wine, fed 300 people with a couple of fish and a French loaf. What, indeed, would he use the bunny for?
Jesus created Playboy magazine.
