It did. It's closed every year since I've been a member.

Aww, I was just gonna post a story about the pope being assaulted in there too
Merry xmas btw!
Re: Doesn't the Backroom usually close around this time of year
Still, its curious that the Backroom closes at a Christian holiday.
It could be interpreted as rascism or descrimination by some people.
BLARGH!
Re: Doesn't the Backroom usually close around this time of year
Backroom topic, ironically. Still, it can't be racism, it doesn't even come close to fitting the definition.
Re: Doesn't the Backroom usually close around this time of year
Indeed, not that I as an educated Judeo-Christian European Westerner have much to oppose that our holidays and culture be forced upon everyone else. But it is rather curious to see something as potentially discriminatory as this being a regular practice.
BLARGH!

Everything is potentially discriminatory, better to just relax and let the mods handle it.But it is rather curious to see something as potentially discriminatory as this being a regular practice.

at some point in ones life, you have to stop worrying perpetually that every minutae of your conduct might be deemed offensive to some other unknown person. it really doesn't matter that much.Indeed, not that I as an educated Judeo-Christian European Westerner have much to oppose that our holidays and culture be forced upon everyone else. But it is rather curious to see something as potentially discriminatory as this being a regular practice.
and more to the point, i am unwilling to waste my time on a person who has such a fragile psychological makeup as to require absolute deference to his or her insecurities.
and someone who has got nothing more important to achieve than to incessently worry about pleasing other people really needs to find a hobby......... before they suffer a mental breakdown.
it is called integration.
merry xmas. *

Re: Doesn't the Backroom usually close around this time of year
I rarely visit the backroom... and silly me for bailing and not bothering to check the responses after I post... But I do like the place
I'm not objecting on this Org tradition and I'm more then willing to respect Christmas and Christmas truce but when is backroom going to be re open?
Re: Doesn't the Backroom usually close around this time of year
Maybe not until January 2nd.
