Why does America say 'merry christmas'?
while it seems everyone else says 'happy christmas'
which imo is a way better phrase, it's very ... pragmatic. happiness is more attainable than merriment. how often is anyone merry?

Personally, merry Christmas just sounds better than happy Christmas. Something about the repeated "m" sound, I think.
That's called euphonics, and I agree
It was bad when Hitler did it and I’m not going to suddenly start agreeing with it.
It's Christmas! Let the guy do a little euphonics if it makes him happy.
Euphonics?
Replace "euphonics" with "eugenics" and the joke will make sense
