Is OTHER wrong in the post ? POST : This came up last year and now that it's November, Christmas season has started in stores everywhere.

This year, like last year, Hanukkah comes before Christmas (if you didn't know the Jewish calendar is lunar so our holidays fall on different days every year, sometimes Hanukkah is during christmas, sometimes during thanksgiving, and everywhere in between).

I've always been kinda annoyed that Christmas gets treated as a multi-month holiday.  I roll my eyes at talk of "war on christmas" because some business just has a red holiday cup without a snowman on it,  and last year during Hanukkah in mid December, when people would wish me a merry Christmas as i was checking out at a store or buying coffee, i'd smile and say "Happy Hanukkah" and be on my way.

I was with my friend at a starbucks when this happened once and they said to me after this "you don't have to be an asshole".  I asked them why? I didn't get angry, i didn't go 'WELL ACTUALLY IT'S HANUKKAH", i didn't make a scene, i just wished someone happy hanukkah, ON HANUKKAH.  But they still felt i was being an asshole to make a point.

AITA?
