'happy holidays' turns it into the depressing buy-up that tends to represent everything wrong with our consumption process. It's Merry Christmas or I just go snowboarding.

Happy holidays and Merry Christmas are used in two different contexts. You say 'happy holidays' anywhere between Thanksgiving and the New Year. You can only say 'Merry Christmas' on Christmas Eve and Christmas.
