As if Santa wasn't a freak himself.  Pretty fucking huge for an elf.

y'know, Rudolph was only accepted into santa!society when his disfigurement became useful.

That's a big wrongo. It was the other reindeer that bullied Rudolph, not Santa.

Well it means you should call it reindeer society, not sully santa's association with such second-rate slander!

How do we know it isn't Santa that perpetuates the reindeer on reindeer racism?

Didn't they use to burn people in those things? Wicker man goat?

EDIT: with 'they', I ofcourse I mean the Swedes. Back in the human sacrifice days, everyone in their right mind just used human shaped wicker men for that.
Can't blame them though. If you stare into the abyss of surströmming long enough, the abyss will stare right back at you.
