Title: Why?
Post by: Scrumpy on November 25, 2023, 06:01:33 PM
Has Father Christmas lost weight. ?
I saw him on the TV.. Skinny as a rake.. His beard was a flat strip of cotton wool.. and he wasn't jolly..

Everyone knows that he is chubby with a big belly.. he wears little specs at the end of his nose.. he is jolly with a happy face.. He has a full bushy grey beard ...
  I'm beginning to not believe in him..

They're probably trying to phase out Father Christmas

Why don't they pad him out..?   Or is that MOCKING fat people ?
What a carry on.. 
In time we will not be using the word (CHRIST) ..
No Christmas Morning.. Father Christmas.. Christmas decorations or puddings..

In the US they already say Happy Holidays, no doubt in years to come we will follow suit.    It's only English speaking countries, so of course it's to avoid using the word ' Christ'    Frohe Weinachten and Joyeux Noelle won't have to change  :grin:  :grin:
