This rant was written by a friend of mine who calls himself "Tatbat" (due to all of his bat and/or Batman tatoos) and I thought it was hysterical:
I so dislike the story of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and here's
why.
>
> So here's a sweet and loving creature that was born with a little
something
> extra. Instead of being appreciated for his uniqueness he's taunted
and
> ostracized by his family and friends.
>
> I can see how the other reindeer children could do this because
let's face
> it, children can and often are very mean to other children who are
> different.
>
> One would think that poor Rudolph would have at least found some
solace and
> compassion from his family but that wasn't happening either.
>
> One would also think that Santa, the guy who loves all the world's
children
> just the way they are and bases his judgments on who has been
naughty or
> nice would have been nicer but NOOOO.
>
> What does fat-ass do? He tells Rudolph's parents that he'll never
be able to
> be on the team because of his nose.
>
> It isn't until Rudolph and his little gay dentist elf friend risk
their
> lives to save Christmas, that anyone in the damn story has any
respect for
> the them.
>
> OK I feel better now. Have a wonderful holiday season!
