Santas 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.
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.
You've gotta be fucking kidding me! Am I the only one that thinks this is going a little too far?"Ha ha ha", just doesn't have the same ring to it. How to you change hundreds of years of tradition for a group of bitches with sticks up their asses? Next thing you know, people will be claiming that "ha ha ha" makes children feel bad and like they're being laughed at and will be changed to "he he he". A big fat guy in a red suit skipping down the street with candy canes, saying "he he he" just takes away my whole vision of Christmas. "Mommy? What's wrong with Santa?"
Give me a fucking break.

ReplyDeleteP.P., I have a feeling that this is only the beginning of the madness.
ReplyDeleteHannah, only the chain smoking Santa in downtown Manhattan.
Jen, I know! When I saw this, this morning, it blew me away. It'll never stick.
Anon, ho ho ho and a ha ha ha. :P
is this for real?
ReplyDeleteHow weird. You posted at the same time I did. It's really for real. I saw it on Yahoo News this morning.
ReplyDeleteI agree - this is ridiculous! I heard this on the news this morning, and thought, this is taking political correctness a bit too far. I think they jumped the shark.
ReplyDeleteAnybody who thinks santa may be talking to them when he says "ho ho ho...." may have a guilty conscience. Maybe they are wondering if the guy under all the rubber and red was the guy with all the rubber in bed last night?
ReplyDeleteNot to mention that here in Australia, the term "ho" is not in widespread use, so many people would not have heard of it (Jerry Springer viewers excepted).
ReplyDeleteIt's the secular progressive's war on Christmas! Alert the media!
ReplyDeleteOn O'Reilly! On Hannity! On Rush and On Fox! Get Coulter, and tuck her sack back like a box! The wiggles, Paul Hogan and Men at work too! Those austrailians are ruining Christmas, Boo hoo.
Ann, I couldn't agree more.
ReplyDeleteTex, they still air Jerry Springer? I haven't seen that show since I was a kid...
Ted, you obviously have more issues than I do...lol. I find comfort in that!

ReplyDeleteTed, you're a fucking riot!
ReplyDeleteSweet Ass, Amen to that.
ReplyDeleteScott, Indeed.
Ann, Ted never fails to amuse me. :P
