I just found out that a co-worker's religion bars the celebration of holidays, and thus they co-worker is offended when birthday celebrations are discussed/planned at work.
I don't know if this is any help at this point, but it turns out this is also an issue for Bahais. I just discovered this recently, and was quite surprised.

Is it an active bar, then? I mean, like Judaism bars consumption of pork, as opposed to not observing Christmas.
Does that make sense? Either way, I can't imagine being offended (bored and irritable, perhaps) about the discussion of other people celebrating things I don't. Unless my code had elevated it to offensive...which'd be a whole 'nother ball of wax.
I think it is an active bar with Jehovah's Witnesses.
I can't see someone getting their panties in a twist over people talking about celebrating their birthdays unless they're jealous. Or unless they're just self-righteous. In which case, MORE CAKE FOR ME!
Bunnycat. He was being affectionate and cute, but I had to move to get the camera, and poof!
billytea? Anybody? What kind of monkey is this: [link]
Do you mean the one behind the glass, or the one hitching a ride?
I reckon it's a woolly monkey from what I can make out. Definitely a New World monkey.
He does that. Don't know why.

I'm at work late so I can actually see you -- my computer at home has perished. How the hell are ya? Still planning on sleeping with me?
My impression was that it was an active bar with Bahais. Of course, I heard this secondhand and have been way to lazy to double check, so I wouldn't swear to it.
Hey y'all,
Crazy request: would anyone have time to do a super-fast emergency beta on a Supernatural fic for me and smonster?
(It may, possibly, be for a fic challenge that has an Aug. 1 deadline, so we're trying to post by, um midnight?)
