        Don't you know, if you aren't a part of their exact echo chamber, you're a stupid Republican?

            If I ask my die-hard Republican friends, this past one, when I voted Johnson. They told me it's a vote for Clinton.

              Evidently, it was a vote for Trump.

                  The stop motion cartoon is sexist as hell. I noticed that when I was about 10. Also, Santa is a real pr-ck, and Donner is even worse. Still love it, obviously. I had (OK, have) a thing for Clarice.

                  Is it "Herbie" or "Hermie"?

                    Hermie

                    Agreed it is sexist. We still watch it with our 8 year old son, but I think he is getting bored with it. He used to want to watch it multiple times, this year he's seen it once and that seems to be enough.

                              I can't tell if they're upset that the original cartoon holds 1960 gender roles as a given or that the theater production is staying as true as it can to the stop-motion cartoon to cash in on the nostalgia dollars.

                                I guess I've been spelling it wrong. The google tells me it is 'Hermey'.
