Disney

Before I go on tonight's tirade, I would like to announce the suspension of all plans to write my own 'swinger of birches' poem due to an overwhelming negitive response from my viewers. I like you to feel that this is somewhat of a democracy ;) Ok, announcements over, on to tirade!
I dislike Disney with the burning passion of a thousand suns. (Sorry Clare, I felt that on this momentus occasion of my renouncing Disney and its affiliates, some thunder-stealing was in order.) All Disney does is fill children with illusions that life is fair, good always wins, and the good guys always live happily ever after. I'm sorry, but I'm sure Aurora had her fair share of plagues and droughts and Philip probably ended up spending most of his time running around slaying dragons, leaving her to manage the kingdom. Snow White does not just ride off into the sunset with her Prince. Obviously, the horse will throw a shoe, the wedding will have to be delayed until the noble steed is reshod, and the caterers will get angry and revolt. And what about the dwarves? They can't just happily go whistling back to thier lives of filth and squalor in thier little cabin after they've seen how nice it is to have a woman around. And excuse me, but can anyone honestly tell me that Cinderella magically manages to adjust to court life and doesn't offend any visiting dignitaries? I don't think so. Clearly, Disney is intentionally misleading us to think life is better than it actually is. Well, I OBJECT! There is no such thing as living happily ever after, just living normally (hopefully) ever after. Maybe the Brothers Grimm had it right after all...
