Ours is a sick culture where there is nothing holy or pure and those who try to make the world a better place are mocked. Priests are pedophiles, Santa is a pervert who wants kids to sit on his lap, charities are hoaxes, love is a lie, cops get away with murder, and the disease goes all the way down to the most trivial expressions of creativity, such as good fictional characters being written as secretly evil in fan fiction. Embrace the nihilism and slit the goat’s throat!

Or maybe they just think it’s funny, dunno.

I don’t have much of an opinion either way about Hipster Santas, but I think Rockin’ Santas" are kinda cool.

Too easy, the color gives it away.
