Bed Bugs and Christmas

Nothing says Merry Christmas like a nice Bedbug Bible Gang Christmas Show VHS tape, featuring bed bugs in a story about the birth of Jesus.

The description states:

The Bedbugs have been busy learning their lines for their biggest show of the year–a show all about Jesus’ birthday! Children are sure to enjoy hearing the Bedbugs tell the stories of Mary’s Surprise, The Wise Men, and The Shepherds of Bethlehem. The fast-paced antics of the Bedbugs will keep children enjoying this video year after year. (27 min.)

Anybody else notice the irony: bed bugs have indeed been around since Biblical times.  Am I alone in thinking “Mary’s surprise” in this context is related to the discovery of blood-sucking parasites in her home?

And what’s with the pseudo-prison-stripes garb that alleged bed bug is wearing?

Apologies to the non-Christian Bedbuggers. I guess in this instance, Christian kids get all the blood-sucking bedbug fun.

    I hate to think what they’ll think of for Kwanzaa, Eid and Divali.
