Boy, you've got a schooling in this one over the last few days. You could call it much ado about nothing, or you could call it by it's real name: a 'nontroversy.'

A former preacher and now professional instigator recently took the ludicrous position that the new Starbucks cup was "anti-Christmas" because it lacked much of the traditional holiday decorations.

This set everyone to talking on social media, mostly people blaming this idiot for filling up their feeds with this nonsense (you see, people get upset if you upset their steady stream of crazy cat videos). With the exception of a few gullible folks, this whole brouhaha has been dubbed a nontroversy.

We've had other nontroversies this year, too.  Anything to do with Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner and Jade Helm could be summed up this way. I kind of see these things as a drama vacuum or drama suck.

Nessman's Rule states: Whenever there is a lack of drama in life, someone will create some. THAT is where nontroversies come from.
