Because many people have done the math, and the time it takes to fly to a house, go down a chimney, and set the presents down, doesn&#8217;t really workout if you&#8217;re going to take care of the 7 billion people on this planet.</p><p>St. Nick: Ho! I have my ways, but if I told you, one of my elves would have to kill you.</p><p>Thalia: Really???</p><p>St. Nick: No I&#8217;m kidding! HO HOOOOO!!! It&#8217;s like this, I am a saint right?</p><p>Thalia: Yeah&#8230;</p><p>St. Nick: And many saints have powers like bilocation correct?</p><p>Thalia: Bilocation, the ability to be in multiple places at the same time. I&#8217;ve heard of it&#8230;</p><p>St. Nick: Well that&#8217;s how you do it! I just hop on my reindeer and POOF! I&#8217;m on everyone&#8217;s house in the entire world in no time!</p><p>Thalia: You know what? This does explain your weight problem.</p><p>St. Nick: Oh yeah! Sometimes I&#8217;m watching TV and instead of getting up off the couch I&#8217;ll just bilocate and get myself some gl&#246;gg from Sweden. </p><p>Thalia: And God is ok with this?</p><p>St. Nick: He said I might get my bilocation powers taken away if I keep this up. I&#8217;m trying to break the habit.</p><p>Thalia: Come to Greece and exercise! Hercules will get you jacked and tan in no time!</p><p>St. Nick: Sounds good to me!

This time it&#8217;s King Triton from The Little Mermaid. I&#8217;ll ask him the questions you always wanted answered!</p><p>Thalia: So K3, how&#8217;s it goin?</p><p>King Triton: Swimmingly Thalia! How about you?</p><p>Thalia: Can&#8217;t complain! So! Some readers have been saying that you should&#8217;ve let Ariel get turned into one of those slug looking things for making such a terrible deal with the Sea Witch Ursula. </p><p>King Triton: Well I can&#8217;t do that! She&#8217;s my daughter! Also, I don&#8217;t know if you&#8217;ve noticed but if you look at how she hangs out with a child fish and mentally unstable seagull, let&#8217;s just say her fishing net&#8217;s about half full. If she were a fish she would be taking the short school to school. Her depth of knowledge in no way resembles the Mariana Trench. Keeping that in mind, I could not let Ursula turn her into a sentient booger.</p><p>Thalia: Yeah, it&#8217;s a pretty bad deal. You were pretty trusting that it would work out!</p><p>King Triton: Yeah some would say making a deal with a Sea Witch that you can obtain true love&#8217;s first kiss in three days after being washed ashore naked and unable to talk to the man you want to fall in love with would be a tall order. You&#8217;d also be correct!</p><p>Thalia: Plus she had never even walked or known human culture at all!</p><p>King Triton: Yeah I wish I had her luck! More specifically I wish her mom had her luck! I told her to stay away from shiny objects holding food in the middle of the water but nope! She was hooked by a fisherman! I always said Ariel took after her mother!</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png" width="1152" height="896" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/ab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:896,&quot;width&quot;:1152,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:1714770,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!DzLg!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fab56e6fe-9233-4437-8fa1-d52ff50bb9c7_1152x896.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>Thalia: So did you think Prince Eric would save Ariel?</p><p>King Triton: Of course! Anyone who is crazy enough to take on my daughter is crazy enough to drive the prow of his ship through the heart of a gigantic Sea Witch!</p><p>Thalia: You know there is actually a lot of truth in that. So you&#8217;re currently being wheeled around in an aquarium that&#8217;s paid for by your King son-in-law. Got any plans while you&#8217;re on dry land?</p><p>King Triton: Oh yeah! We&#8217;re gonna visit some Long John Silvers, give them a piece of my trident, I mean mind. Then probably visit some fish markets. Then finally go to war against mankind for what they&#8217;ve been doing to the fish population.</p><p>Thalia: What was that last part?</p><p>King Triton: Nothing! I will say that inspirational documentary you have called Aquaman <em>REALLY </em>got my mind working. They did <em>NOT </em>like Land Walkers and to be honest, I didn&#8217;t think we would have a chance conquering you. At least until I saw that movie. I&#8217;ve taken some notes and updated my land itinerary if you can&#8217;t tell.</p><p>Thalia: Well that&#8217;s not a documentary but, whatever, never mind. Got anything else to say to the folks before you go?</p><p>King Triton: Yeah! Make sure you enjoy life Land Walkers!
