My betrothed and I were driving along recently, and as it’s winter there’s all sorts of Christmas lights and decorations up.
As we drove past a particularly festooned yard my betrothed said, “I should just go steal all those decorations. Like some kind of anti-Santa.”
“Do you mean like a Grinch? That’s- that’s what they call people who do that.”
My betrothed did the blank stare of someone who had absolutely forgotten that the Grinch existed and was calculating whether to backtrack what they’d said.
Instead, they doubled down with, “No. The anti-Santa.”
Today they expounded on this theory by adding, “If there’s an anti-Christ there should be an anti-Santa.”
Pretty sure the anti-Santa is Krampus.
Okay well I just lost a bet because my betrothed insisted that someone would say this exact thing.
But no, Krampus is his own guy, I’m informed the anti-Santa is a discrete entity that just robs people out of a sense of cosmic balance.
For further inquiries about the anti-Santa please confer with @aorryn47 my betrothed.
