With all the good-feel-y stories we’ve posted lately — nice folks aiding neighbors and strangers; churches and synagogues rushing to help after a fire, blahblahblah — it’s time to turn our attention to another side of the holidays.
An alert but anonymous “06880” reader describes an overheard conversation in a (fortunately) unnamed hair salon the other day:
If one more person tells me Merry Christmas, I’ll clobber them. I’m Jewish! Stop telling me Merry F—ing Christmas!
Now that’s the Westport we know and love!
Wait, wait! I was kidding!
Really!
Well then, Merry F—ing Christmas to you too!
