2001-12-27 - 12:01 a.m.|Tom Cruise ruined my Christmas Does anyone here hate Disney as much as I do? I mean, really want to retch at the thought of buying or having to watch one of their cartoons? Never even been to Disney World? By hating Disney, this is the one point with which I agree with our friends the Southern Baptist Convention. I mean I've always said the only thing I've left to do for possible shock value is to join the Baptist church (and/or the Republican party, but I suspect they're the same thing.) The thing that really set me off this time is the marketing campaign to sell copies of "Snow White" before they put it on a 10 year moratorium. Is anyone really stupid enough to be marketed to in this way? Wait, don't answer that. As a matter of fact, Disney could just stop advertising and it wouldn't make a damn dent in their sales. Its just like Coca-Cola. Nobody's gonna forget they exist! So why do we have to keep enduring their advertising? If you want something, you're gonna go and buy it! If you don't, you won't! Now just let me watch my Seinfeld reruns and shut the fuck up! Despite the fact that I've never been to Disney World, I've been threatening for years to go on Gay Day. Yes, they really do have Gay Day at Disney World every June. But why stop there? Let's have White Trash Day at Disney. Everyone could spit Copenhagen on the sidewalks, play grabby-ass in the lines, and leave dirty diapers on the rides. It'll be great! Speaking of trash, I'm tempted to ruin the ending of Vanilla Sky for all of you. I would do it too, but I'm afraid the Scientologists would come after me. Not that I really have a reputation to ruin, but those peeps are just too scary to mess with. But suffice to say, the movie is an indulgent, depressing, contrived piece of crap. And since my family always goes to the movies on December 25, and yesterday we saw Vanilla Sky, for once it was not my brother or me, but Tom Cruise who ruined Christmas.
