Woman tells cousin's GF to 'shut the f*** up' on x-mas after she goes on 'creepy' rant.

When this woman is concerned about her Christmas party, she asks Reddit:&quot;AITA for telling someone annoying people at my party that we don&rsquo;t respect their beliefs?&quot; My (19F) family has never had a Christmas party because my mom doesn&rsquo;t like people sitting on our couch or touching our towels in the bathrooms, and my parents would rather just go to someone else&rsquo;s Christmas party.
