    Grinch was the scientist, but the character commonly called “The Grinch” is really Grinch’s monster, created by Grinch.

      Or maybe he’s like the Hulk and turns back into a regular Who when he’s in a better mood?

        Is that why he’s naked? His regular clothes are too small when he grinches out?

          This theory is making more and more sense. Which also implies there’s no Who Tony Stark to make him the uber-stretchy pants.

        He doesn’t like Christmas because that’s when he turns into the monster.

    “You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch” The clue is in the song.

      I mean, “You’re a mean one, Mr. Assface” still works despite being more of an insult than a proper name

      ‘The grinch had a heart that was three sizes too small.’ It gets ambiguous very quickly

      Holy Moses this is a racist song!
      “Uhhh…just change that term to Grinch.”
      Hey, this would make a great Christmas cartoon!
