The Grinch Is A Personal Hero Of Mine.


Yes, while he may have perpetuated many a dastardly deed on Christmas Eve to get revenge for all the noise and racket the Whos had made for 53 Christmases, I see him as a positive role model. Not for the change of heart he had in the end, that was all well and good, but I really admire an individual that can firmly take action when he's had enough of something. I mean think about it. When someone that lives on the top of a mountain, in a cave, has an entire community making that amount of noise during the Christmas season for decades on end, wouldn't anybody be a bit disenchanted with the town's population. God only knows what else they sang about. Easter? Thanksgiving?? New Year's??? Lorax Day???? All I'm trying to get at is that the Grinch shouldn't be solely admired for him seeing the error of his ways at the end, but, also, for the time, planning, and effort put into executing such a widespread heist in a single night in an attempt to put those noisy creatures in their place. Opinions, anyone?
