the grinch's misdeeds are:
-attempts to "steal christmas"
-lies to a child
-is mean to his dog
considering that the Whos do not care about the presents and decorations being removed, the actual negative impact of the first two is negligible.
no one other than the narrator (who only the grinch reacts to) actually harbors ill will towards the grinch in the text. the grinch is a figure who *believes* he is hated
in conclusion, maybe the grinch just needed an app to tell him to drink water
the grinch named himself
in a way mt. crumpit is the grinch's platonic cave and in the absence of human interaction he became convinced that he was ostracized for any reason other than his own choice
congratulations; you grinched yourself, we say
*whooman interaction, sorry
@alex an allegory of the cave joke is good
@alex The Incel Who Stole Christmas
@alex the key party scene killed me dead.
I am going to write an essay about the grinch
