Happy Persian New Year!

[Swedishguy]

Some of my class-mates got a day off! And some weren't even persians! This has gone too far, don't you agree?

Nope! The more holidays, the better.

 

[Catharsis]

Random Persian: Hooray, holiday!
Swede:

So, you think all days should preferably be holidays? Let's see what impact that has on the global economy.

In a country where persian ethnicities are a minority thats ludicrious.

It weren't only persians.

Or do you view El Savadorians as Persians?

No i meant that it shouldnt be a national holiday and nobody should get off because its a minority race.

If thats the case then i should get off for St Patricks day, or groundhog day.

Since when does one extra day off from school matter when it comes to an impact on the global economy?

This is just going to cause another Iranian outrage if non-Persians celebrate something Persian.

'Instead of a full public holiday, MSPs agreed to make 30 November a voluntary public holiday.'

we can't even get St. Andrews Day as a holiday in our own country

 

[MobBoss]

In support of the Persian new year, I advocate we all go see '300'.

 

[ArneHD]

I don't mind, as I really can't see the damage done.

 

[Mirc]

More free days = Better!!

 

[Princeps]

Well maybe multiculturalism brings us something good... more holidays.

 

[skadistic]

Wheres my day off for being white? Or Irish? Or......

 

[GenMarshall]

Nope! The more holidays, the better.

Nope, the more holidays the worse. I don't think too many School kids would want to stay in school longer into the summer .

When I saw Persian New Year I thought immediately of the only Iranian I know.
