Well, I think we should get some bricks and some baseball bats and go over there and teach them the true meaning of Christmas.
— Designing Women ‧ 1986
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Here, a sarcastic twist on holiday goodwill: instead of kindness, the speaker proposes bricks and baseball bats as a lesson in the 'true meaning' of Christmas. The humour comes from pairing festive language with an absurdly violent plan, showing how angry they are at someone.
