As that ‘certain time of the year’ approaches, I’m preparing my ‘Certain Time Of The Year’ card for President Donald Trump, because as I understand it Donald (if I may address him in such a familiar manner) has called for the return of the use of the ‘C’ word, the one that ends in ‘mas,’ at this time of year.
I call it the ‘Cmas’ word.
At the moment I’m busily amassing alternatives to the Cmas word, alternatives which by a process of deduction make it clear to the reader that I am referring to Cmas but don’t actually mention the word.
Not in full, anyway – not the complete raw, naked, uncensored version.
I feel that when Donald receives my ‘Certain Time Of The Year’ card he will, by employing his considerable powers of deduction, realise that I am referring to Cmas.
However, I do have backup, a failsafe mechanicism, checks and balances, in case he doesn’t ‘get it,’ to use a popular euphemism.
For example, I also plan to use the message ‘Warmest Greetings’ in my Cmas card to him.
However, at the moment I can’t decide whether to use this before or after ‘Certain Time Of Year’ – whether to use it as a headline or as a sub headline.
Let’s see how it looks.
Warmest Greetings!
At This Certain Time Of Year!
Alternatively, if that doesn’t work, how about this:
At This Certain Time Of Year!
Warmest Greetings!
However, I have to admit that ‘warmest greetings’ might create a problem, because it hints at ‘heat,’ as in the heat generated by an inter continental ballistic missile, and I don’t Donald to think that it’s a card from North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un referring to a seasonal ICBM attack by North Korea.
