Looks Good on Paper by Dan Collins for December 22, 2019

Another downer.

Terry Pratchett, “Hogfather”.

Oh no. He killed Santa!

Um, is that the ghost of Christmas yet to come?

Buzz kill.

Nor any other year from now on.

Reminds me of my sadistic, Northern Irish grandfather, who went out into the backyard and fired off his shotgun.

He came back into the house and informed us kids: “They’ll be no Christmas this year. Sandy Claws is dead!”

Hogfather (2006)

He wasn’t a good boy this year.

Happy Hogswatch to you all -

What’s with the hum bug Christmas attitude?

Oh my! That was dark.

Well THAT took a really dark turn two days before Santa is due to arrive on Christmas Eve! ;-)

He doesn’t look like Thanta Claws.

Santa, an immortal, dead? Have the Dark Elves (Dökkálfar) finally succeeded with their melding of Thanatos with the Christmas Spirit? (Thanta Claws) A Grim Reaper of the Jing-jing-jingle? They have out done themselves, not since their dark horned beast called Krampus.

Santa’s bad case of Snow Balls must’ve spread to his Peppermint Stick.

Jack Skellington?

“But IIIIII”ve got aaaa present for youuuuuuuuuuuu!"

OMG! What happened to Santa?
