"You scumbag, you maggot, You cheap lousy faggot, happy christmas your arse, I pray God it's our last."
You said it, classic.

HAHAHHAHA! That was fucking rich! Thanks Tom. A merry fucking christmas to you and yours.
Speak like adults ? Give your guests a chance to speak, particularly erudite and articulate guests such as Hitchens.
