Please don't forget that I am an extremely racist idiot who also has terrible opinions about the Culture series.

You'd think after the rest of the bystanders start referring to the dude you're fronting up to fight as "Champ" you might think about it for a second.

"Don't square off with someone named Champ" is right up there with "don't play poker against a guy named after a city."

My favorite variation of that is from Pratchett's Thief of Time

Even the cowering challenger mumbled along to the chorus:
‘Do not act incautiously when confronting little bald wrinkly smiling men!’

jokes are traditionally funny, friend.

I wasn't making a joke, I meant it in the sense that Christmas's established mascot has already been engineered into a corporate shill that readies children for the watchful eye of a fascist entity or whatever complaints people have against that elf thing. The Coke bit's just an easy go-to since Santa's been selling coke since like, 1930. As I said in my original post, I don't see why Santa gets a pass and the elf is abusive and awful when they're pretty much doing the same bit.

Didn't realize there was a Santa history purist thing.

That's Luke, It was Arthur who died, from the sounds of it they lost their balance while tripping on LSD next to a cliff. :smith: I guess, but here's an article to go with the pic: Henry Rollins and Nick Cave - How We Met:

quote:

He loves his kid, and, man, when you saw him on stage with the Birthday Party you would never think he could be a father. The father of the Antichrist, maybe. It's really cool to see Nick be a good dad, and be wrapped up in his son. Luke could be one of his greatest masterpieces.
:unsmith:

That reminds me, what's the difference between a toddler and a bag of cocaine?

Eric Clapton would never let a bag of coke fall out of a window.

Nick has gone to a few areas that I'll never go to, but to me that's not a reason for liking or not liking somebody.

One of those places? A 10 day heroin binge wearing a leather tuxedo in 90 degree weather and constantly squaring his fingers like he was constantly lining up a shot. Oh and never taking off his tuxedo until Henry has to hold him down and strip it off him.

the idea of Santa/Father Christmas/Kringle evolved from the traditions surrounding Odin and Yuletide. it's far older than the measly 100-odd years Coke has been around
