Bah Humbug

Mon 12/21 Blog Prompt: Humbug Day. Are you or anyone you know a humbug? (Do you know what a humbug is?)

Something devoid of sense or meaning; nonsense is what comes to mind when I think of humbug. Every year during the holiday season, my dad would answer the phone "bah, humbug." He never really meant it, but there was something comforting in hearing him say it.

heh...if my phone doesn't show a number I recognize usually answer it with WTF do you want? Especialy this time of year when every other call is from someone solicting money for some phony charity. HAH HUMBUG!

We just bought a new Chick-fil-a calendar and one of the cows says, "Bah, hamburger!" LOL
