The dumbest thing I've heard in a while

This guy just left... FYI, I'm writing this Saturday December 31st.

A guy comes in looking for an item we normally carry but we are out of at the moment. He asks when we will be getting more, and I tell him because of the season, an order probably won't show up until the end of the first week in January. His answer?

"Damnit, now I'm gonna have to wait 'til after Christmas!"

... and he storms out before I can say anything.

Uh....his Tardis was off a little bit?

Um...Maybe he meant another culture's Christmas, or...No, I don't know either. O.o

Armenian Christmas isn't until Jan 6th! I just bought my fillo dough to make baklava for the occasion!

Though something tells me this guy was just way off.

My first thought was maybe he said Christmas when he meant New Years, but as he said it on New Year's Eve, that doesn't make much sense either.

Unless of course he'd been in a coma

I guess he could be meeting with relatives for a late Christmas, and referred to that without thinking of how it sounded. Our daughter, son-in-law & grandaughter live 400 miles away, we usually alternate which place we have a late Christmas about a week later, (so Santa can find grandaughter at home ). Since we do the whole "Christmas morning" thing, I've been known to pick up stocking stuffers after Christmas and get odd looks if overheard talking about putting them in stockings when it's already past Christmas.
