bluegrass cat santa with the red suit, big jelly belly and sack o' toys is an original american tradition, as is the leaving of the cookies. its spread worldwide, though...but still... ITS AMERICAN!!! scream we always did milk and cookies @ mi casa when i was little...chocolate chip with frosting because THOSE are santa's favorite! when we have little ones ourselves, we'll put out peanut butter cookies because then THOSE will be santa's ((angel's)) favorite. 3nodding
I am not 100% on this but i am pretty sure Santa is a british concept, if i remember correctly a drunk guy stumbled out of a bar, looked up at the sky and saw a fat old guy in red cloths, riding with flying reindeer domokun but i never left out food for santa, its not a tradition in south africa to do that ninja History of Santa claus |

Thanatos Phoenix Irukus MissMunchieMonster Well my professor said that Santa Clause was designed by a German for a coca-cola advertisement and that drawing became the image that we have of santa. Not really, if u read the link i sent then it explains that Santa has many origins, like the dutch " Sinterklaas " resembles Santa Claus Alot domokun Wikipedia has a really good article about Santa 3nodding http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa
3nodding thats the same link i posted, i have nothing personal against americans talk2hand they should just stop thinking they invented everything, because the only thing i know they invented was condensed milk talk2hand |

santa with his jolly a** rolly polly self WAS invented by americans.
like, the FAT santa was.
he was modeled after robber barons, but was supposed to be a "reverse robber baron" so that people would stop thinking all industry was evil and would start buying s**t again...i saw it on "christmas unwrapped" last night on the history channel. 3nodding
and as far as the reindeer and such, that came from some minister who wrote "t'was the night before christmas" for his children ((he was promptly fussed @ by the church, too, because santa was considered too secular for christmas)).
and rudolph, of course, was invented by montgomery ward ((a department store)) to sell s**t. 3nodding
now, saint nick and all that, yes, that's european. 3nodding but he was a skinny a** old guy who put presents in good little childrens' shoes and whatnot.
don't trust wiki! its teh devil!!! scream
and americans invented a lot of things besides condensed milk. stare i'm not saying we invented the world, but we invented a lot ((especially since america has for a long time been a place of refuge and asylum for creative geniuses from other countries. 3nodding yay melting pot!))
((btw, for example: bifocal glasses, revolvers, power tools, roller skates, barbed wire, THE TELEPHONE, friggin light bulbs, electric fans, skyscrapers, cameras, escalators, air conditioners, airplanes, radio astronomy, nylon, microwave ovens, defibulator, polaroids, carbon dating, calculator, the hubble telescope, the internet ((ha)), the human genome project and the cervical cancer vaccination.)) |
