WTF ? Rudolph The Reindeer At Hamleys Toy Store

[Brattygirl01]

Great vid, Dibbs.

I suppose I can't really complain about them using the animals in a store.

If I was a vegetarian, maybe, but considering I eat meat on a regular basis I feel I would be a hypocrite screaming out for animal rights.

Merry Christmas, buddy. :)

[DibbersPage]

@Brattygirl01 It isnt so much about eating meat babes, it's more of a moral question as to should wild animals be treated in such a manner. Thanks for the comment xxxxxxx

H&R?

That makes no sense putting animals in a shop like that is just not right. Christmas has turned into crap, it has taken over halloween and Thanksgiving, its not being used right.

[DibbersPage]

@freetrader0000 Christmas here in the UK comes before Halloween and we dont do Thanksgiving, christmas is a big deal here in the UK as Halloween and Thanksgiving are not British celebrations although Halloween has got more popular these days. H&R

[chlorophylfactor]

definitely a traditionalist , not commercial wholesale to the highest bidder

[DibbersPage]

@chlorophylfactor Glad we read from the same page Bro H&R

[DABRADSTER45]

The world loves you dibber. and yes christmas has become a plastic holiday.

[DibbersPage]

@DABRADSTER45 Glad you agree Bro, thanks for the comment H&R

[DABRADSTER45]

The world loves you dibber.

NO! Animals shouldn't be used in this way. It just shows to what depths these retail companies will sink to by expoliting animals for profit. If one can get away, then whats to stop all shops doing it, and doing it all year round.

And remember... A dog's not just for Christmass, it's for life.

[DibbersPage]

@BritishFreedom Couldnt agree more bro, with you all the way on that one. H&R

[AcousticBeaver]

I completely agree.

It's so commercialised but I work in a shop and do understand that it's how companies make money. They have to compete!

But those animals, especially the penguins should not be allowed!

[DibbersPage]

@AcousticBeaver Must be tough working in a shop this time of year Bro, i owned a pub and that was bad enough at christmas and new year. H&R

[mcdooby1]

i totall agree with u on all points today bro i think they need to leave the animals out of the furthur comercialization of all the holidays especialy xmas i preefur a old fasiond ule log burning spiked egg nog time spent with ur family and friends kinda holiday

[DibbersPage]

@mcdooby1 Just how it should be spent, i did see ya Halloween videos, now that looked fun H&R Bro

[dylandior123]

He's a bit of trivia for you. Did you know that Rudolf is actually a girl reindeer?

During winter time, boy reindeers lose their antlers. I'm not sure why.

Answers on a postcard. :-p

H&R + Haribo.

[dylandior123]

I forgot to put my view on christmas across on this video. Doh!

Personally, I love christmas. It's the only time when my whole family get together and enjoy each others company and have a right old giggle.

I even miss it when my grandad would ask me to pull his finger hahaha! :-p

I can't stand christmas songs on the radio. But I love carol singing and everyone together.

Peace on Earth and good will to all men.

H&R + Haribo.

Ps. What you asked father christmas for, Dibber?

[DibbersPage]

@dylandior123 Sounds just like how xmas should be Bro H&R

[dylandior123]

I meant to say Here's a bit... lol

[DibbersPage]

@dylandior123 Great triva Bro, hats off to ya H&R

[dylandior123]

What you asked father christmas for, Dibber? Or are you keeping that a secret? :)

I don't want much, just an easy life without any stress lol

[DibbersPage]

@dylandior123 A new immune system and bones would be good hahhahhaa H&R

[dylandior123]

Hehe. You should drink sherry. One of my relatives has been drinking it forever. We always say "You're well preserved" hehe :-p

When I was little I used to mess about in the garden and eat mud pies. You should try that as well hehe. No wonder kids today have been getting poorly. They should eat mud and get some germs to get immune to it. Something like that. lol

H&R + Haribo :)

[dylandior123]

Here's a final piece of trivia from me for 2010, Dibber and all. I feel like Gyles Brandreth on QI lol.

Anyways... did you know that father christmas' outfit was originally green like his elves outfits? It turned red when Coca-Cola decided to use such an iconic figure as a marketing thing :-p

[dylandior123]

Eep! Nearly forgot H&R + Haribo :)

[messengerlarry]

Love the back drop, yes Christmas has become way to comersial. I will look at the story, I agree that animals should not be abused. Thank you for bringing these storys to our attention. You are a good bro.

[DibbersPage]

@messengerlarry No worries my Brother, the backdrop is a picture i took near my house last winter, glad you like it LH&R 762

[Maladay]

I like a family christmas,all it seem's now is about money for the shops,and kids wanting stuff thats near imopssible for some parents to afford...greedy little buggers some of em......as for the hamleys debate,well Im not sure,as long as they are looked after properly,meaning not too close to the kids,it shouldnt be a problem,no sorry I take that back,crying....screaming...its no good for them...yeah go see them in the zoo if its animals you want to see,its santa after all that they go to see

[DibbersPage]

@Maladay Couldnt agree more babes xxxxxxxx

[tc71291]

Like you, I don't think they should be able to do that, just added trama to the animals from screaming kids all day. And Christmas ? It is a time for family to get together and reflect the real meaning of Christmas. And it happens to be the day that I will celebrate my 52nd birthday

[DibbersPage]

@tc71291 Wooooooo hooooooo, birthday and xmas together, bet thats a good party H&R

[BIGITCHMAN]

stupid fucks ,,,,,,, piss's me off how ppl try to sell shit with BS Advertising for Xmas , my honest opinion is Xmas is just a gathering for all family members to get on the VB ...... lol

[DibbersPage]

@BIGITCHMAN Hahhaaaha VB rules Bro, i know i'll be having a few. Bring back the old style christmas i say H&R

[TheWestAussie]

no i don't think they should be using animals in that way. and Christmas has become too commercial. but isn't the only holiday that's has.

[DibbersPage]

@TheWestAussie Agreed 100% Bro H&R

[bukroot]

oh gosh... what a horrible thing to do! i can't believe people would put animals through that kind of stress (even I would be stressed if hundreds of screaming children touched me all day) just for money. what is the world coming to? i don't know when and how the exchange of gifts became the whole "point" of Christmas. here in greece we only exchange gifts on new years. Christmas is a day for family. the only gifts we give are donations for the needy that we give to the churches and orphanages.

[DibbersPage]

@bukroot Sounds like a christmas of good will babes, nice one. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[Wysiwygnuttyjo51]

I think it's an absolutely stupidly bonkers idea....and where will it end in order to satisfy the terminally bored children who are saturated with so much stuff these days to satisfy every whim!! Bring back the Xmas's of yore, where everyone would get together on Xmas day and have a singsong, standing round the old piano....wishing that someone could play it! :D I celebrate Yule, and keep with all the old traditions with my family!

I have to disagree about zoos....loathe them, and circuses to

[DibbersPage]

@Wysiwygnuttyjo51 I have a re think about zoo's a few years back, for some animals it's that or extinction, i dont however like live animal theme parks. I like the old style christmas, i know what you mean about the piano hahhahaha H&R

[terinasworld]

hey baby we were talking about xmas the last time you were down mine and i said to you xmas is getting worse and worse the mince pies and selection boxes have been in the shops since blady september the telly is full of what new game is coming out every day so it goes on and on my take is xmas is about love and peace and family so mr make sure you come down to me b 4 xmas for a piece of cake lol and as for animals being in a shop blady toy shop is bang out of order stay safe much love xxxxxxxxxx

[DibbersPage]

@terinasworld You so know im gonna be down before xmas babes hahahah xxxxxx

[Gerbilios]

Christmas become commercial? I noticed that a LONG time ago. It seriously ruins the holiday spirit, the stores and business destroyed most of the christmas. And i do not agree with people using animals to draw more people in to buy toys and stuff. If they want a reindeer, they should have one of the store managers to dress up as one. In short, christmas has become holiday for bullshitting people to buy. That's what i think

[DibbersPage]

@Gerbilios Very well put H&R

[MadameLovrina]

I think Christmas has gotten to commercial. I think it's disgusting to be honest. I perfer spending time with family having a big dinner.

[DibbersPage]

@MadameLovrina You and me both H&R

[karmagirl74]

I'm not religious but xmas has definitely become too commercial. It's about coming together with family and friends, not what's the latest game boy you're going to buy. I can't believe they are allowing these animals to be put in these stores. It's a disgrace. 1000's of screaming kids running around scaring the hell out of these poor animals .. yeah that's the xmas spirit!!! NOT!!

[DibbersPage]

@karmagirl74 Couldnt agree with you more babes xxxxxxxxx

[LittleFawn60]

This kinda thing really angers me, dibber! I HATE the circus, sea world, etc. This thing u speak off falls into this catagory in my eyes! Anthropocentricism in Motion is what I see this as being! NOT COOL!!!

Thanks for all you do here!!!!!!!

Hugs

Dona'

[DibbersPage]

@LittleFawn60 Glad we see this the same way babes xxxxxxxxx

[Thewizard22uk]

Reindeer in a shopping centre...Suppose one is spooked and just runs trampling people??

Quick, The Judge said "It's dangerous, put it down quickly!"

I guess they have'nt thought this one through, Animals and Children don't always go together.

(Good job Rudolph was'nt a pig mind..They'd have other complaints from our immigrant friends)

We're lucky we get ANY Christmas, It's usually *Winterval* so as not to upset anybody :-(

Still prefer the traditional quiet Christmas though.

[DibbersPage]

@Thewizard22uk Hhahahahahha nice touch Bro H&R

[dildomerchant]

not aceptable, fuck the system, cheers.

[DibbersPage]

@dildomerchant Ya welcome Bro H&R

[lightweight69]

some people and what they do just makes me think WTF

H&R

[DibbersPage]

@lightweight69 You and me both Bro H&R

[Ubookz]

Better turn the aircon on for the dears and penguins! I love traditional and Christmas goodies! But I will be spending yule in the Philippines-so no fir or pine trees and a whole roasted pig(baboy) instead of turkey.

[DibbersPage]

@Ubookz Have a good time and stay safe. H&R
