I mean 'ho' is a relatively new slang term. Should Santa keep up with the current times?

Many special words have been "hijacked" to give them a negative connotation. Such as "gay". Back in the day, many people named their daughters "Gay" and also there are many people with the last name "Gay". We had many "gay" celebrations and that meant "fun". Now those people have to suffer jokes because of homosexuals hijacking the word "Gay". The media should not allow groups such as this and the "ho" group to hijack our language. They should come up with a word not previously used and leave our good words alone. As usual, their instinct is to destroy anything good.

If any woman is offended by Santa saying ho ho ho they should be medicated and carted off in a white jacket until the holidays are over.
I cant believe that anyone would be offended by something that brought them joy when they were children.
Dont punish the kids just because you have no common sense.

Sometimes people can really go a little too far. For years we are use to hearing Santa saying "ho,ho,ho" so why change the script now? I don't get it myself really.

No....
Because ho ho ho is not offensive to women.
Only HO is.
HO HO is a location or a product.
HO HO HO is santa claus.
This world is getting too p.c. nowadays.
Personally I would ignore this so called p.c effort.

If any lady is offended via Santa asserting ho ho ho they could desire to be medicated and carted off in a white jacket till the trip journeys are over. I cant have faith that anybody could be offended via something that extra them exhilaration while they have been babies. Dont punish the babies merely because you have not got any undemanding experience.

that's the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. when have you ever heard "ho ho ho" and thought of it being directed towards women?? and who exactly would be the one to change "santa claus," a new law? this is the most retarded question ever and who ever thought of this needs to go play in traffic

Santa's been saying it forever and he should keep saying it. I'm more offended by the PC groups saying the term is offensive to women, as if only women can be whores. It's stupid. Good luck. 2D
