What it was supposed to mean? I can only read ’Merry Hamas’
-mas
Just like people rewrite the phrase as “Merry Xmas” or non-christ substitutes like cats in “Merry Kitmas”, they were trying to make a ham-holiday. A Mass made of Ham. A Ham Mass/feast. Sadly, there is a war on so anything close to ‘Hamas’ is no longer suitable for mass-market humor.
