Wolf: Or a Merry Chanukah.
So what? Truthfully, aside from the fact that “merry” is associated with Christmas, there shouldn’t be any issue there either. (Besides, no one says “Happy Christmas.”)
So, again, I ask the question: Why is there a problem wishing someone a happy day — whatever day it is*? Why does there have to be an obligation of happiness before you can wish someone a “happy day?”

* OK, I’ll grant that “Happy Tisha B’Av” is a bit out of order.
