ARE YOU FREAKIN' KIDDING ME?????!!!!
Ok, so I just read that Santas en masse are being told not to use the traditional "Ho, ho, ho" as a greeting this year, because of the fear that women will be offended by it.
SERIOUSLY????
The part that is hilarious to me is that if you are one of the women that this may offend, why do you have a guilty conscience? Why if someone says ho do you feel that they are talking to you? I could see it if the Santa points at you and two of your friends and says "Ho, ho, ho" like he's the damn Count from Sesame Street. If that's the case, feel free to kick his jolly ass. Otherwise, lighten the fuck up. This feels to be in the same vein as people that know how to use the heimlich maneuver, but don't because they don't want to get sued if they accidentally break a rib saving your life. Why can Santas have little kids sit on their laps, but they can't say "Ho, ho, ho"? In the grand scheme of life, which truly could lead to more therapy sessions and confused feelings?
Ugh, I can't even believe this crap is for real.
Speaking of crap that is unreal, I also just read that 4 people that received organ transplants have contracted HIV. Wow. Just wow. How does this slip through the system? I guess if someone dies and doesn't have a detailed medical history or doesn't know they have HIV, and they are an organ donor, this could happen, but it seems like their should be some checks in place to do some tests before the organs make their way to give the gift of "Oh and by the way, while you're body tries not to refuse this organ, it also has to fight the beginning of HIV" good thing you signed that waiver ahead of time, eh?
This is the kind of blogging I miss. Pure, unadulterated rage.
Stay tuned to my blog for more fits of rage.
