[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just found out two years ago that reindeer are real animals and are not make believe.

I had always assumed they were a made up animal because I only ever heard them referenced in relation to Santa who is ....[/quote]
Who is what?  What are you trying to say?   :( [/quote]

Santa is GAY.  Didn't you know?  There is no Mrs. Claus.  There's Mr. and Mr. Clause.  
All the elves are gay.  Did you never wonder why there are no girl elves?[/quote]

This reminds me of my favorite David Sedaris piece

...One doesn’t want to be too much of a cultural chauvinist, but this seemed completely wrong to me. For starters, Santa didn’t used to do anything. He’s not retired, and, more important, he has nothing to do with Turkey. The climate’s all wrong, and people wouldn’t appreciate him. When asked how he got from Turkey to the North Pole, Oscar told me with complete conviction that Saint Nicholas currently resides in Spain, which again is simply not true. While he could probably live wherever he wanted, Santa chose the North Pole specifically because it is harsh and isolated. No one can spy on him, and he doesn’t have to worry about people coming to the door. Anyone can come to the door in Spain, and in that outfit, he’d most certainly be recognized.

On top of that, aside from a few pleasantries, Santa doesn’t speak Spanish. He knows enough to get by, but he’s not fluent, and he certainly doesn’t eat tapas.
