"I love that Nona called this a gem. It truly is. When I got older I was mortified to learn that lines had been cut from the tv showings that depicted misogynistic male to female stereotypes but now the lines are a running gag in my house. Truly this one is my favorite of the Rankin and Bass Christmas Specials. I had a special connection to it all my life. There has been a game that I played when I was little and I taught it to my kids. The lines on the iceberg "This Fog is as thick as Peanut Butter." "You mean Pea soup." "You eat what you like and I'll eat what I like. WHAAA ! Land Ho!" "No Kidding!" The game is to say this lines in different verbal style themes to make each other laugh and you can change some words and add some. Like perhaps do an Australian accents for example. When I was little I remember the "Valley girl talk" was funny and popular. "Like Totally Gag me with a spoon!" When my kids were little, the McDonald's commercial with the " Dada Da Da Da! Following every line it became one of my sons renditions of the game. Or you could talk like a pirate when saying it. However theme you say them the trick is to try and make everyone laugh."
