Merry Christmas Ha ha ha (not ho ho ho)

It's not enough to have the word "Christmas" banished from our language because it might be offensive to certain cultures.
The PC crusaders are at it again. Eager as ever to stamp out offensiveness perceived by them, they now target the fat man in a red suit and white beard. Just imagine how scared the little ankle biters must be to be confronted with big fat man in red suit and white beard saying "ho ho ho". Yes incredible as it may seem, not till now did people actually realize how intimidating this was to little children. And we all know, we must protect our little children from the big bad world. Wrap the little ones in cotton wool, shield their eyes from the six o'clock news and most importantly, protect them from the big scary man who will bring them presents at Christmas. Better to have him say "ha ha ha" say the PC crusaders.
Funny as it may seem, to me some stranger saying "ha ha ha" and promising to give presents seems like the pedophile stereotype.
It amazes me how vigilant those PC crusaders are, seeing evil in every word in every sentence spoken or written where most of us see simple meanings.

For example we all know how wicked the word "man" can be. It has been removed from "mankind" and "manhandle" and maybe even "mannerism".
The plural of "man" (men) should also be removed from our lexicon as in "menstrual" or "mendacious".
Let's leave "ho ho ho" for the more appropriate referral to women, oops I mean ladies of a loose moral inclination...skanky ho ho ho.

I have searched and searched and can find no evidence that this has actually happened. You are all worked up over an urban legend. No government entity has outlawed "ho ho ho".

Whoever has created this faux news item, rather than celebrate the birth of the Prince of Peace, has chosen to stir up hatred and animosity during the Christmas season. For shame!
