Eaz-tarr!!1!
Easter is lame.
If Easter were HTML, it'd be broken code:
<easter>
<jesus> cures leprosy, water into wine, brings peace to the land, has identity crisis regarding being the son of god, betrayed by apostle
</jesus>
<jesus>
</easter>
Hmm...dangling orphan tag! The second appearance of <jesus> is not closed! And so, the HTML is broken, or at least unable to be validated properly. According to HTML standards, the only thing to do to remedy this is to add another </jesus> tag. So...maybe instead of hunting for plastic eggs filled with candy, we should be looking for Jesus. And kill him again.
When I was younger, I actually believed in the Easter Bunny more strongly than Jesus. Think of it this way--I’m ten, and here's what I'm told:
A) Once a year, rabbits hide pastel-colored candy and hard-boiled eggs.
B) The son of God dies and three days later, returns to life.
Hmm...cuddly rabbits and candy, or a zombie?
Easter is just like every other holiday in any religion: it means a lot to the people who believe in it. For the rest of us, though, we just sit awash in pastel yellow, blue, and green for about two weeks. At least no matter what you believe in, there's always massively-discounted candy the day after.
