What was supposed to be a happy visit with Santa left a bad taste in the mouth of a 9-year-old boy in North Carolina.
Thats because the jolly old fat man reportedly shamed the child by telling him to lay off the hamburgers and french fries, local station WLOS TV reports.
On Saturday, Anthony Mayse of Rutherfordton went to a Christmas event in nearby Forest City. The family enjoyed a carriage ride and ice skating before ending the night with a visit to Santa.

Probably, the first time the kid has had a bad taste in his mouth.
Why is a 9 year old boy sitting on Santa’s lap? And why does a 9 year old weigh more than an NFL linebacker?
Santa was just giving the snowflake some sage advice.
Santa has a point.
The boy should listen to Santa’s wisdom and lay off the hamburgers and French fries.
I was a bit of a smart mouth as a child ;) My response probably would have been, “Only if you lay off the booze first.”
My mirror fat-shames me.
His mom should have never called the media and had him go on TV.
That was abusive.
If you’re a 75-year old Santa, would you want a 200-lb brat sitting on your lap ?
It was NOT Santa’s job to say that to the kid. This kind of thing is not helpful. The guy who played Santa should be fired.
And why do Santa’s reindeer all have hemorrhoids? From towing his big fàt ass around everywhere, that’s why!
Not that I want to look greedy but if the fat-shamed child no longer wants to eat his burgers, can I have them?
I believe the line by a robot spaceship to a very heavy gasoline station attendant in the movie “Flight of the Navigator” was similar - “Too many twinkies, chubby”.
I agree. It was not his job. His job was to play Santa Claus and all that went with it.
Fat shaming a 9 year old. Seriously.
If only Santa had given this advice to Rosie O’Donnell when she was still young...
It’s also abusive that his mom feeds him all those hamburgers and fires.
“Its also abusive that his mom feeds him all those hamburgers and fires.”
Yeah, it is a wonder he does not have burns all over his mouth.
Not Santa’s job. Santa needs coal in his own stocking.

Too Many Twinkies

Last week I got a five euro gift certificate from a mall because a clerk idiot shamed me.
I mentioned it to my wife and then she took it upon herself to call and complain.
I didn’t really much care. I need to get my hearing checked.
