I hate Columbus Day.

What a useless holiday! Only banks and government offices are closed. No schools are closed and they certainly don't close retail businesses. What the hell? Only third graders celebrate it with ships made out of construction paper.


Also, what an offensive holiday. We all know that Columbus raped and killed the natives, right? We're all caught up on that little tidbit of history, aren't we? Why would we celebrate that?

It completely confounds me.

Columbus pissed people off by killing them and taking their land. Our gov't is trying to keep up the tradition by pissing us off by holding our mail and preventing us from cashing checks today.
