It seems some people very much want to make “happy holidays” as being put upon, i.e. someone, somewhere is telling them what to do. And as soon as they’re told what to do, there’s a defensiveness. Insisting someone do something tends to make them annoyed, and that’s natural.
Reminds me of a Tommy Tiernan bit. Warning, language NSFW. (If the video doesn't start at 5:45 automatically, that's the portion bit I'm talking about). The "have a nice day" part...
