Default Ho Ho Ho Banned from Santa's Vocabulary

...At least in the land down under.

Quote:
A Santa veteran of 11 years told the Sunday Herald Sun the instructions were clear: "No 'ho ho ho'."

"We were told to say 'ha ha ha Merry Christmas'," he said.

Two Santa hopefuls reportedly left the course after the edict.

Family Council of Victoria spokesman Bill Muehlenberg described the ban as "nonsensical".

"Potentially any big guy in a red suit with a white beard is scary but I don't think him saying 'ho ho ho' would damage a child's psyche.

"Let's just concentrate on the kids having a good time."

A survey of Melbourne children yesterday found universal support for Santa's "ho ho ho".

If ho, ho, ho isn't allowed, what about ha, ha, ha? Isn't that sexist? He should be saying ha he ha, or he she he she. This is stupid.
