Dr Nathan Grills from Monash University in Australia said the idea of a fat Father Christmas gorging on brandy and mince pies as he drove his sleigh around the world delivering presents was not the best way to promote a healthy and safe lifestyle among the young.

Judging by the look in his eyes, I say he's high lol

Seems Autralias universities have drawn the short straw when it comes to being given stuff to research.

yep, coke kid looks high to me. maybe he's eyeing Vixen for bad intent.
[quote]Father Christmas could also potentially promote drink-driving, argued Grills, referring to the tradition of leaving Santa Claus a brandy to wish him well on his travels.[/quote]

"Santa... hey Santa, where's my present? Wake up, Santa!"
Santa is Satan spelled inside out.

For christ sake people it's santa clause, he's amazing don't try and use him as a scape goat.
Are they really that desperate to find something to blame childhood obesity on?
I wanna shove a brick up that doctors ass.
First it was the best way to rip off a band-aid and now it's the moral acts of Santa Clause?
Who the fuck cares?
Its coca cola marketing not the santa, they just abuse the idea of santa.
Santa isn't a role model.
[QUOTE=erazor;19014133]Santa isn't a role model.[/QUOTE]
He breaks into houses and steals their food. He is a great role model!
oh well he sounds p cool if you ask me
i've never seen santa drinking brandy what the fuck Australia
Oh brother... I'm surprised Australia hasn't banned Santa all together.
Dad: I'm sorry, Sally. But there won't be a Santa Claus this year?
Girl: Why not?
Dad: Our own government thinks it's promoting obesity.
It's funny how these kinds of adults are the ones that need to grow up.
Eat a cookie get fat, drink a coke get drunk.

That's because the Coca-Cola company pretty much invented the modern-day Santa Claus.
I fucking hate society nowadays. They try to look for faults in old traditions that have been around for longer than they've been alive. Shit like this makes me fucking hate people in general.
The Australia Santa is traditionally somewhat different then everyone else's. Ours is a drunk fat idiot.
Well the fat bastard does come to everyones house an stuff his face with mince pie.
But I hardly think that being paranoid about everything being unhealthy for us or promoting bad things is a very good lifestyle choice either
stupid scientists, go cure cancer or something
