Default \'Merry Christmas\' or \'Happy Christmas\' ?
This is arguably very trivial, but ive noticed that loads of people say 'Happy Christmas' and some say 'Merry Christmas'

Just out of interest which do you say ?

ive always said Merry Christmas myself....

We taught me 'Merry Christmas'. 'Happy Christmas' sounds well weird.
'We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year' like the song is.
