Tom Kenny (the voice of SpongeBob) explains that the inspiration for his character came about about after he overheard a frustrated little person in an elf costume venting over their career prospects. Wild times. Who knew the voice that so many children grew to love and so many parents grew to tolerate had such strange origins.
When you're just a kid, you just kind of assume everyone lives the same way as you, so you don't think too much of it. Then maybe you go to a friends house and realize that it's just a little bigger, or cleaner, or they seem to have a lot more food. Then it hits you. "Oh, man, what is it my mom does for a living?" For some other interesting and somewhat frustrating stories of relative wealth, here are people's craziest encounters with rich kid syndrome.
Why can't we all just get along? Oh, it's cause you insist on calling Die Hard a damn Christmas movie. Or, it's cause you don't. Controversy, get it while it's piping hot. At least we're recycling it with this age old debate, this time.
Little kids are basically Santa's full-time soldiers, to ensure his legacy is carried on and respected. Watch that profanity, or you might find yourself getting brutally yelled at by some, red-faced Santa-crazed kid who might as well be an elf.
The time that immediately follows Christmas is one ripe for particularly testy, ridiculous, and outright crazy customer demands/refunds/etc. Thus was the case for a Costco down in L.A., when a crazy lady was trying to return her Christmas tree, cause it was "dead." Yep, her heart might be tinier than the Grinch himself. We can only imagine the cringe that must've ensued in the store when she dragged that sick puppy in.
Sometimes the stars align, and the most innocent and well-intentioned Christmas decorations end up looking absolutely dirty. These are those times. You're welcome. Happy Holidays!
