There is definitely an idea for an SNL skit where the Russians code-name a new weapon "Santa" and NORAD is tracking Santa but no one thinks twice about it.

"Mr. President, NORAD is currently tracking Santa over the Pacific"

"Don't they do that every year"

"Yes sir"

"**** it then"

After more than a decade of buying gifts for our kids and watching the fat bastard get all the credit, I'd like to see him take a sidewinder or two up the ass.

santa gets NO love in my house. i told my son a long time ago that santa wasnt allowed to come over and he just accepted it. he knows that when he wakes up dad has made up for everything that santa didnt leave.

Now that's funny.

I found out about Santa when I was 7. I didn't tell my mom; it would have broke her heart.

But she noticed that my list at six years old was a lot bigger than the one I made at seven. That's because I knew money was an issue.

I was such a genius child.

It's no surprise that they can't shoot him down. Actually, it's amazing they can track him at all considering that he travels at 3000 times the speed of sound (about 650 miles per second).

• No one has ever seen flying reindeers, except Santa, Mrs. Claus and their elves, of course. However, since there are over 300,000 species of living organisms that are unclassified (though they are mostly insects and germs), we can give them benefit of doubt.
• According to the Populations Reference Bureau, there are about 2 billion children (defined as under 15) in the world. Assuming that Santa caters to Christian children only and do not bother himself about children of other religion, he still has 15% of the above children population to think about.
• 15% of 2 billion means 300 million children, which is certain an enormous workload, even for benevolent and kindly Santa.
  Let's assume that there are about three children in each household and at least one of them is good. Thus, Santa has to visit 100 million homes during Christmas Eve.
• Let's assume Santa starts distributing gifts, starting from 5 pm to midnight (which makes 7 hours). Since earth rotates and there is a difference of full 24 hours overall due to different time zones, we can say that Santa has 31 hours to finish his work. We can also assume that Santa works from East to West to use this time difference to his full advantage.
• Visiting 100 million homes in 31 hours means that Santa has to visit 896 homes per second.
• Thus, he has about 1/1000th of a second to do everything mentioned above such as parking his sleigh, looking for the right gifts, climbing down the sleigh and chimney, binge on snacks, fill the stockings, come up again and rush to his next stop.
• Even if we assume that all households are distributed evenly throughout the earth for convenience of Santa and Santa Claus works non-stop for 31 hours (both of which are very big assumptions that are almost impossible!), Santa has to travel about 75.5 million miles in 31 hours and 650 miles per second.
• Now the fastest man-made vehicle moves at 27.4 miles per second and normally reindeers can run at the speed of 15 miles per hour. 650 miles per second is 3000 times faster than the speed of sound.

All that and the bastard still insists on eating milk and cookies. I'm leaving his ass a celery stick and protein shake this year.

[Cherick]

He just left Iran, there are reports he just ran out of shoes gifts.



I hope he remembers about the $50,000 for me.

You can't do that to Santa!

I wonder if Pez leaves him some wings.
