Things learned from watching The Grinch


1.) Christmas can come without ribbons, without tags, and without packages boxes or bags

2.) If you suddenly have a change of heart and become nicer, your heart will grow 3 sizes. And you, yourself, whoever you are, will carve the roast beast

3.) 2 year olds can be smaller than Christmas ornaments

4.) There's so much NOISE NOISE NOISE on Christmas morning, with games like zoozitherkarzay, a rollerskate type of Lacrosse and Croquet!

5.) If you puzzle and puzzle too much, your puzzler will get sore

7. The topography of Whoville hillsides is highly irregular, much too steep for ordinary humans to negotiate.

11.) If there's a single light on the tree that won't light on one side, it's necessary to take it to a workshop to fix it up.

12.) The Grinch has lived on Mt. Crumpit for 53 years and he can't stand Christmas or the Whos but he will not move somewhere else

13.) The Grinch's soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable, mangled up in tangled up knots, with a heart that's a rotten dead tomato splotched with moldy purple spots.

14.) Somehow rather, Christmas came just the same

15. Christmas Day is in our grasp, as long as we have hands to clasp!

18. When you literally have a change of heart, your eyes change colors.

19. When you steal Christmas, it's necessary to take EVERYTHING, and not leave anything as much as a single crumb on the floor that's even too small for a mouse

20. Dressing up as Santa and deciding to steal Christmas is a great Grinchy trick

21. The Whos will most likely go "boo hoo" when they discover no Christmas came.


22. Stink stank and stunk are 3 words that best describe a Christmas hating curmudgeon who wants to sabotage the holiday

23. The Whos won't care if the Grinch throws all the presents back and they end up with the wrong recipient

He didn't even cut out a suit. He just cut out the profile (outline) of what a suit would look like. That scene always made me laugh.

24. Tony the Tiger has a great singing voice!

25. Maybe Christmas doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.

I understand. Thank you for telling me. -The masked bandit
