Santa
« on: November 15, 2007, 12:33:06 pm »
Can you believe this crap?
SYDNEY (AFP) - Santa's in Australia's largest city have been told not to use Father Christmas's traditional "ho ho ho" greeting because it may be offensive to women, it was reported Thursday.
Sydney's Santa Clauses have instead been instructed to say "ha ha ha" instead, the Daily Telegraph reported.

One disgruntled Santa told the newspaper a recruitment firm warned him not to use "ho ho ho" because it could frighten children and was too close to "ho", a US slang term for prostitute.

"Gimme a break," said Julie Gale, who runs the campaign against sexualising children called Kids Free 2B Kids.

"We are talking about little kids who do not understand that "ho, ho, ho" has any other connotation and nor should they," she told the Telegraph.

dang - I just read that today - CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? :o >:( >:(

I had a friend take a picture of his three teenage daughters (for a Christmas card) holding up signs that read Ho Ho Ho (each daughter had a sign that read HO).  We made fun of him all the next year about his three Ho's  :D :D :D :D :D

So there can be no mo Hostess Ho Ho's?  Let me guess, kids are getting slapped for saying "I want a Ho Ho!"

If Rudolph Giuliani becomes the next president, they will have to give "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" a new name.  It will confuse kids and they will think the President is leading Santa's sleigh.

Maybe "Hillary the Red Nosed Reindeer", hmmm.

Newsflash: It has just been reported that the FDA is mandating Coca Cola change its name.  Too many kids refer to having Coke during lunch.  When they hear of someone being arrested for possession of Coke, they get confused

Why do the govt's of the world now become the saragate parents?  That is not their role!

Father: "Hey son, bring me the hose so I can get my truck washed"

Son: "Dad, why can't you wash the truck yourself, why do you need your girlfriends?"

What do you think poor kids will think when Santa comes down the chimney and into their poorly outfitted living room with second-hand furniture and the like?  The first thing Santa says is "HA HA HA!"
