I have to be honest
I’m not a big South Park fan. I mean I
started watching it in the beginning, and was only able to compare it to the
Simpsons. Naturally I didn’t like it, I
hated the art work, I hated the storylines, and I hated how offensive it could
be. However I started watching it again
a few years ago, when there was nothing else on. A lot of the stuff that I used to hate about
the show were upgraded, the artwork, the storylines, and although they were
still very offensive, I found them to be more driven to have a message.
One character from
the show which I love and I absolutely hate is Eric Cartman. He’s racist, sexist, homophobic, mean, and
very selfish. Yet I can’t help but laugh
whenever he’s on the show, pair him up with Butters and I’m crying in
laughter. Last year for Christmas I went
to my local drug store and noticed they had a Christmas ornament of him. I didn’t think anyone would buy him, so I
waited until after Christmas to buy him when I knew he would be on sale. Fortunately this decision paid off and I was
able to buy him at half price. The ornament
was made in 2009 by American Greetings.
It is a Christmas version of Eric, and he is wearing a blue sweater that
features a Christmas tree and some snowflakes.
He also doesn’t have on his beanie which makes him a rare
collectable. From the looks of it, I
assume it is made from vinyl. The paint
job isn’t that great, but it still looks amazing on my Christmas tree. Here’s hoping Eric will make Santa’s ‘nice’
list this year.
