Tell HN: Merry Christmas • Hacker News Board

In ex USSR we celebrate New Year. So the first several years of remote work with Western folks, I was always surprised to see no colleagues some day in December. Only later in the evening, I would remember they had Christmas that day. :)

Merry Christmas!

Merry x-mas, hn.

Some of you might not celebrate it but that just means I'll have to eat your share of cakes \(^_^)/
