[ru-] Rudolph is in the [3] basement of the [-_] house, slowly destroying a bunch of 辱 disgracing Christmas 辰 ornaments on the cement basement floor with a 寸 caliper. Each 辰 ornament has a picture of Rudolph doing something embarrassing. It seems all of the other reindeer made these to 辱 disgrace him, and hid them in the basement so he wouldn't know. But it is probably more 辱 disgracing to care so much so as to destroy each with a 寸 caliper...
