Santa promotes obesity and drink-driving?

[Slurpthegoghurt]

[QUOTE=hogstr;19008916]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.

To be honest Christmas for most people is more about Santa than Jesus.

[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;19028264]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.[/QUOTE]

Human sacrifice used to be tradition in some societies. V:v:v

But jokes aside, I get where you're coming form and it makes me rage too.
I'm less angry that they're trying to blame old traditions and more that they're blaming trivial shit that doesn't influence people in any lasting way at all.

I always saw him drinking nothing but Coke[/QUOTE]

I would say that based on the look on the kids face, and the fact that he has a bottle cap on his head, the message of this picture is that santa drinks the innards of derranges childeren.

Also, I highly doubt some kid would think "hmm, santa always drank lots before driving his sleigh" before he downs 2 pints of beer and gets in a car.

It sounds like the guy's just having a laugh, and doesn't actually believe what he's saying, but just joking about it.

I don't see any mention of the pointy-eared midgets forced into slavery. THINK ABOUT THE LITTLE PEOPLE!

[mastermaul]

Eight year olds are gunna steal light aircraft and booze.

Yep.

[Benie]

Someone do a picture of the Grinch looking like Australia, or something funny like that.

[Sgt-NiallR]

If anything that shows drink-driving and obesity promotes it, then sure PSAs ect. would also promote it...

That would mean that the only way to stop promotes things IS TO STOP FUCKING WHINING ABOUT THEM!
