Santa in PC ban: 'Ho, ho, ho' means prostitutes?

This might be the dumbest thing I've ever heard!

[PROCON]

Yes, at least in the Top Ten.

While we’re at it what are the Dumbest Things FReepers have ever heard??

[muawiyah]

Now, for a cold blast of reality. People engaging in that quaint folk ritual of drinking reindeer urine after the reindeer has consumed large quantities of amanita muscaria (an hallucinogenic mushroom that grows in the Arctic) frequently emit a distinct "ho, ho, ho" sound while under the influence.

BTW, this is the substance identified by the ancients as "soma". It seems that it is not destroyed or metabolised as it passes through the body to the kidneys, so it may be used repeatedly.

Is that why Rudolph’s nose was red?

[SamAdams76]

This reminds me of a movement here in Massachusetts to ban trick or treating on Halloween. That too supposedly conjures up images of prostitution because the "trick" could be interpreted as a desire to perform a sexual act for money and the "treat" could be interpreted as performing the same sex act for free.

Liberal do-gooders sure do think of prostitution a lot.

[Always Right]

Nappy-headed Santa ho.

[muawiyah]

Yes, when reindeer get carried away snorfing up amanita muscaria (which are bright red with white dots ~ like Minimouse's dress and head scarf) (The Keppel in his name is about Mt. Keppel in Norway which is sacred to several tribes of Sa'ami), their noses might well look red!

Actually National Geographic made a film of some reindeer eating this mushroom ~ looks like their eyes are spinning too. Human beings who eat the mushroom (or drink the properly flavored urine) develop a perception of flying.

Again, the whole Santa Claus, his sleigh, his reindeer, his bag of gifts, climbing down the chimney (or through the smoke hole in the tent) ~ all that stuff is there in the ancient stories of the far North.

Many years ago in college all the Republican guys knew that the ladies at the Students for a Democratic Society were easy.

Plus, they were FREE.

They still are.

I seem to recall a joke where a beauty pageant couldn’t find any females to run for “Miss Idaho” for similar reasons...

[stylecouncilor]

LOL!

develop a perception of flying.

"He used ta give a little bit to da reindeer, a little bit to Santa Claus, a little bit more for Santa Claus, a little bit more..."

So now even Santa has to be niggardly with his ho's?

[heartwood]

Some of the girls at my daughter’s CATHOLIC school sure looked like they were ready to turn tricks. “Evil” costume were banned, but the school forgot to mention thigh-high stockings with miniskirts, and cleavage.

Gonna write a letter to monsignor and the principal on that one.

That’s not the dumbest hing you’ve ever heard, waggs. There are things to come that will make this pale in camparrison. That I promise.

[mware]

Just in the last three days, we have had suggestions from a city in Colorado to ban red and green lights. From Lowes we have "family trees" instead of Christmas trees and now from Australia we have Ho, Ho, Ho being equated to prostitution.

..and it is not even Thanksgiving

[Daffynition]

[metmom]

Scrappleface would be jealous.... that they didn’t think of it first.

Can somebody stop the planet and let me off?

[The Ghost of Rudy McRomney]

That’s not the dumbest thing you’ve ever heard, waggs. There are things to come that will make this pale in comparison. That I promise.

sigh.

Sadly, I have to agree with you.
