    Stupid laws/bans in the news.

    The other week i was reading the news on my homepage (yahoo.com)
    and i saw the stupidist law/ban EVER!!

    apparently in Sydney in Australia the Santa's are scrctly NOT allowed to say

    Ho Ho Ho.... because women in the area may find the term offensive

    SERIOUSLY i mean im 16 years old ( not female) and never even thought about ho ho ho as... HO HO HO??? i think the only people that would be offended by this are the ho's and if the word is banned in sydney then sydney must be full of Ho's !?!?!?!

    Santas warned 'ho ho ho' offensive to women - Yahoo! News <--------this is the link the the web page....

    "Ho" is the offensive term, "Hoe" is a gardening tool.

    Re: Stupid laws/bans in the news.

    People get so goddamn uptight about the most ridiculous things. In the Santa example, like everyone thought that the seasonal, "Ho Ho Ho" was actually a derogatory term for women. Go figure, because obviously that was the intended meaning, and if not intended, very ambiguous as to confuse most people.

    L2get a job and not worry about stupid stuff like that. Shouldn't you be home watching your kids or working or doing other important things instead of protesting?? Sheesh.

    lol, just talking to my mum bout it (i live in australia) they have passed on the law santa's are allowed to say "ho ho ho" again.
    (perhaps the person that made the law watched to much "kath and kim"(australian T.V show)(though it has been aired in th UK))
