    Spellcheck does not recognize the holiday.

    It's a conspiracy.

    Where's Bill O'Reilly when you need someone to take a stand!

    I guess we know where to start with the airing of grievances.

    I'll tell you what, sir: I've written Festivus possibly 1,019 times since Thanksgiving, and every fucking time I run spell check, I get a little tweaked. Don't believe in Festivus; that's fine, to each his/her own. But fucking accept it as a correct spelling -- like it hasn't been a recognizable word for the last decade. I've added it to every dictionary in which I've written, but I shouldn't have to do that. What, you can give me alternate spellings on Chanukah (Hanukkah), but not one on Festivus?

    Blow me.
