I find it more hilarious that his name spelled sideways is Satan.

08-12-2005, 07:55 PM

"Sideways"???

Wouldn't it look like this?...

*KROW* · 08-12-2005, 08:14 PM

No, that would be what it'd look like spelled vertically.

*XERO* · 08-12-2005, 08:23 PM

Either way, Christmas will be interesting this year now that I know this information...

SANTA'S A WOMAN

I hate to be the one to defy sacred myth, but I believe he's a she. Think about it.
Christmas is a big, organized, warm, fuzzy, nurturing, social deal, and I have a tough time believing a guy could possibly pull it all off!
For starters, the vast majority of men don't even think about selecting gifts until Christmas Eve. Once at the mall, they always seem surprised to find only Ronco products, socket wrench sets, and mood rings left on the shelves. On this count alone, I'm convinced Santa is a woman.
Surely, if he were a man, everyone in the universe would wake up Christmas morning to find a rotating musical Chia Pet under the tree, still in the shopping bag.
Another problem for a he-Santa would be getting there. First of all, there would be no reindeer because they would all be dead, gutted and strapped on to the rear bumper of the sleigh amid wide-eyed, desperate claims that buck season had been extended. Blitzen's rack would already be on the way to the taxidermist. Even if the male Santa DID still have reindeer, he'd also have the transportation problems because he would inevitably get lost up there in the snow and clouds and then refuse to stop and ask for directions.
Other reasons why Santa can't possibly be a man:
-Men can't pack a bag.
-Men would rather be dead than caught wearing red velvet.
-Men would feel their masculinity is threatened... having to be seen with all those elves.
-Men don't answer their mail.
-Men would refuse to allow their physique to be described, even in jest, as anything remotely resembling a "bowl full of jelly."
-Men aren't interested in stockings unless somebody's wearing them.
-Having to do the Ho Ho Ho thing would seriously inhibit their ability to pick up women.
-Finally, being responsible for Christmas would require a commitment.

So... is Mrs. Claus a hermaphrodite?

Leonardo_ · 08-14-2005, 11:07 AM

Ahm, what's the sense of this thread?

*Headscratching*

*Anarky* · 08-14-2005, 11:12 AM

I don't get it either. I don't think ridiculing names of any sort is funny. Even if it's Coca Cola's best invention up to this day...

Ra · 08-14-2005, 03:04 PM

Well what do ya know...Santa is a woman AND was made by Coca Cola

Dinny · 08-17-2005, 09:50 AM

Santa wasn't created by Coca Cola, his colour scheme was.

A is santa spelled vertically, then this is santa spelled sideways: SANTA

*Sewer Bull* · 08-17-2005, 09:53 AM

Let's just say "SATAN" is "SANTA" spelled anagrammatically.

*KROW* · 08-17-2005, 09:53 AM

No, that would be his name spelled forwards, or horizontally. To me, spelling something sideways means scrambling the letters to create a new word that sounds funny or has a touch of wit to it.

*Sewer Bull* · 08-17-2005, 09:57 AM

You mean - "laterally"?

*KROW* · 08-17-2005, 09:58 AM

Sure, that works, too.

*Sewer Bull* · 08-17-2005, 10:11 AM

And "Claus" spelled sideways is "Lucas". So we have "Satan Lucas" encrypted in "Santa Claus". Any other traces?
