Miley Cyrus’s antics have been causing a lot of buzz recently. Some people think her actions are inappropriate. Some think they’re empowering. I think she trained under Krampus, the Alpine Christmas devil who steals naughty children and beats them with sticks. Consider the following:

                       Krampus, the Yule Lord                    Miley Cyrus, Queen of Punk Fuckin’ Rock

 1

Krampus carries around chains to bind children and drag them into hell. Miley swings on chains at construction sites.

 2

Krampus chases children into washtubs and drowns them. Miley chases child-sized barbie dolls into swimming pools and licks their chins.

 3

Santa and Krampus share an uncomfortable moment.  Santa and Miley share an uncomfortable moment.

 4

Krampus drives a car. Miley drives a car.

 5

Krampus hangs out with stuffed horses. Miley hangs out with stuffed sheep.

6

Krampus sticks his tongue out in every picture. Miley sticks her tongue out in every picture.

Gruß vom Krampus, hope your holiday is Bangerz!
