Blue is a colour, the perception of which is evoked by light having a spectrum dominated by energy with a wavelength of roughly 450–490 nm. It is considered one of the additive primary colours. On the HSV Colour Wheel, the complement of blue is yellow; that is, a colour corresponding to an equal mixture of red and green light. On a colour wheel based on traditional colour theory (RYB) where blue was considered a primary colour, its complementary colour is considered to be orange (based on the Munsell colour wheel).
In Modern English, "blue" is one of the basic colour terms, and one of the seven spectral colours, intermediate between violet (purple) and cyan. It comprises a considerable number of identifiable subcategories that can be identified with descriptive terms like navy blue (a dark blue), cyan blue (or "blue-green", on the boundary to the green range), or sky blue (azure).
The word itself was loaned into Middle English from the Old French word bleu, blo "pale, pallid, discoloured; blue, blue-grey", itself from an Old Frankish *blao.
"Xmas" is a common abbreviation of the word "Christmas". It is sometimes pronounced /ˈɛksməs/, but it, and variants such as "Xtemass", originated as handwriting abbreviations for the typical pronunciation /ˈkrɪsməs/. The "-mas" part is from the Latin-derived Old English word for "Mass", while the "X" comes from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Χριστός, translated as "Christ".
There is a common misconception that the word Xmas is a secular attempt to remove the religious tradition from Christmas by taking the "Christ" out of "Christmas".
"Xmas" is deprecated by some modern style guides, including those at the New York Times,The Times, The Guardian, and the BBC.Millicent Fenwick, in the 1948 Vogue's Book of Etiquette states that "'Xmas' should never be used" in greeting cards.The Cambridge Guide to Australian English Usage states that the spelling should be considered informal and restricted to contexts where concision is valued, such as headlines and greeting cards.The Christian Writer's Manual of Style, while acknowledging the ancient and respectful use of "Xmas" in the past, states that the spelling should never be used in formal writing.

I fuck every god damn celebrated day, but she minds insomuch that no one
And nothing's so important than x mas day
She doesn't want to listen what I've planned in my mind
Well I can't wait any longer like that, all I want is something more carnal
What d'ya think about the table? Come and try!
Unforgetable's fire consuming my veins
She likes x mas day
I've tried, yes I've tried to make her see reason but in vain, she wants to be pure
She said it's a cure, holy day, high spiritual level or other fuckin' crap
She likes x mas day
What a day, what a day, but not a fuckin' day!
She likes x mas day
Inside I hear a rumble shattering my mind! And more, and more, and more
Hello, are you still there honey on the line?
I wonder why, you look for complication, it's an easy situation, you and I
Inside that vibration we'll fly out of the world, oh no, no, no! She said
I do not want disgrace this holy day doing such a shame full thing on x mas day
I think I'm going mad!
