The playwright David Mamet drew this cartoon that's taken on a life of its own, popping up all over the net. 

When Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan was asked during her confirmation hearing where she had been on Christmas Day she laughed and replied, "You know, like all Jews, I was probably at a Chinese restaurant."  It's an old joke based on a real tradition.

And then you go to a movie.

And for those of you who do celebrate in a different tradition, Merry Christmas and Joyeux Noël!
