"Yeah?"
"We should, like, have a magical bunny delivering eggs and burying them in sofas!"

I mean Id imagine that happened in somewhat the same manner as how a fat man in a red suit came to be more a symbol for Christmas than the baby jesus

Yes but Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Jesus, what made them decide to lump the two together into one big holiday

It's Easter/Passover/April Fool's Day/National Sourdough Bread Day I don't feel like debating this
