No big deal when you've got a factory full of elves. And eight reindeer. (No wonder the guy's all Ho-Ho-Ho.)

Moreso than on Yahoo!, there actually is a minimal amount of moderation on YouTube, although with billions of bits of drivel, they can only delete the crap that generates the most complaints. All in all, there's not a whole lot of racist wingnuttery, so they probably do ban the worst of the worst. (I mark the bible-humpers' screeds as "spam" when I'm in the mood, but since they spend their days spewing out fresh claptrap, I doubt that they notice or care what happens to yesterday's output.) The Yahoo! comment stream is a flaming wasteland. The only saving grace is that the default display has comments hidden; you don't have to wade knee-deep in derp unless you want to.

Got that one too! What do you mean it's not an Xmas movie- you got something against lobsters at the Nativity?

Oh, ok. My definition of an Xmas film is that it takes place at Xmas. For example, key scenes in Catch Me if You Can are at Xmas, ergo, Xmas film.

And for some people I know, it is, but I don't like Bruce Willis.

No, but five will get you ten Samual L. Jackson is. He seems to be in every other movie.

"Planes, Trains and Automobiles" is a neat Christmas movie! So's "Home Alone." And what's that one about the drunken department store Santa?

Did anyone else ever notice the characters in ye olde stories such as this are well-scrubbed, always have clean clothes and remarkably fine teeth?
