Bini Posted October 8, 2012 Author Report Posted October 8, 2012 I think my husband and I have decided not to do Santa, at least, not in the sense that a jolly fat man climbs down the chimney and delivers presents under the tree. Quote
Misshalfway Posted October 8, 2012 Report Posted October 8, 2012 (edited) I think my husband and I have decided not to do Santa, at least, not in the sense that a jolly fat man climbs down the chimney and delivers presents under the tree.Way to go against the whole marketing machine. I actually felt pretty great about the whole santa thing until I saw this documentary on the history of christmas and how the legend, image, story of santa was changed so that merchants could sell stuff. I really wanted to stay thinking that everybody just loved the altruistic nature of the whole thing and that keeping it was a sign of our better nature. The air has officially left my balloon. Although, I'm fighting to blow it back up again. :) Edited October 8, 2012 by Misshalfway Quote
