Why angels Lenny?

[08:28] PiMPiNReDHaTMaN: Why do people put angels on christmas trees?
[08:28] PiMPiNReDHaTMaN: There's nothing pretty about an angel with a tree up her ass
[08:31] Ineffable Lenny: It's probably something to do with the Christ part of Christmas. Chances are it's Angel Gabriel.
[08:31] Ineffable Lenny: I prefer stars.
[08:31] PiMPiNReDHaTMaN: You completely missed my point you fucking brit.
[08:32] PiMPiNReDHaTMaN: this is going on Zelaron

After a little Google search, I can give you a proper answer.

On the Victoria and Albert Christmas Tree, they put a little angel on top. And, of course, the British public followed suit.

A-HA!

You've still missed the point. Brits fail at life.

It's all our fault for the Angels.

I still prefer Stars.

Santa was very cross. It was Christmas Eve and NOTHING was going right. Mrs. Claus had burned all the cookies.

The elves were complaining about not getting paid for the overtime they had accrued while making the toys. The reindeer had been drinking all afternoon and were dead drunk. To make matters worse, they had taken the sleigh out for a spin earlier in the day and had crashed it into a tree.

Santa was furious. "I can't believe it! I've got to deliver millions of presents all over the world in just a few hours, but all of my reindeer are drunk, the elves are on strike and I don't even have a Christmas tree! I sent that stupid Little Angel out HOURS ago to find a tree and he isn't even back yet! What am I going to do?"

Just then, the Little Angel opened the front door and stepped in from the snowy night, dragging a Christmas tree. He says, "Yo, fat man! Where do you want me to stick the tree this year?"

And thus the tradition of angels atop the Christmas trees came to pass.

Whether it's tradition or religious or whatever, it's beyond me why anyone would shove a tree up an angel's ass and call it pretty. That's my point Lenny.

Hmmm...

Well, what can I say? Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were always a bit wrong in the head...and the British public at the time liked to follow the Royals examples.

You've still missed the point. Brits fail at life.

Brits fail at everything except naval warfare.

We're good at naval warfare?!

Well I'll be...

At the time of WWI we were the greatest fighting force in the world and we had the largest Empire...but all that fighting changed it. By the end of the war loads of countries and colonies wanted independence. Ungrateful little...

Lenny are you going to run for King when you get older?

If I remember correctly from history class, the Britts wanted an ice ship, because it was supposed to be near impossible to sink.
