Santa's hat
Typically, around this time of year, someone in your circle of influence is going to get the bright idea to spend a day wearing a Santa hat. Do them a favor, and remind them right away that though they think it's funny, you think it's tired.Someone at the bank will have one on.
Someone at school will have one on.
A cashier at K-Mart will have one on.
Maybe even you will be tempted to wear one.
The best part is that everyone who dons one of these caps thinks they are the first person to ever do it. They walk around all day expecting people to say things like, "Well, someone has the Christmas spirit!" Or, "That thing is awesome, where did you get it...the North Pole... ha, ha, ha."
I have a better question for this year's wearers of the Santa hat, "Did you know that the red dye they used to make that thing came from a clubbed seal?" Even though that isn't even a little bit true, I think it might be a hoot if the question made them cry.

Is that picture of Steve Correll from the Office?
You are correct.
"Mint chocolate chip....mint chocolate chip." Steve Correll - The Office, Season 1
You are evil.. but I like the pic.
just today at the grocery store our bagging lady had on a santa hat, and i thought she looked ridiculous.
i also like that your picture is from The Office. nice touch.
Well, I would definately like to be there when you tell the person wearing the Santa hat that the dye in it came from a clubbed seal. To make it even better would be if they were a vegetarinan. That would definately make me crack up. Anyway, it made me laugh. It kind of makes me wonder why people do wear those hats.
You're gross. Love Tami
That post was really funny.
Is the Office any good?
Typically, around this time of year, someone in your circle of influence is going to, for some wet-wash-clothed reason, get the bright idea to make fun of people wearing a Santa hat. Do them a favor, and remind them right away that though they think it's funny, you think they need to get up on the right side of their scrooge bed tommorrow morning.
Someone at the bank will roll their eyes when they see one.
Someone at school will just walk away shaking their head with their face all sour.
A cashier at K-Mart will have one on, and a person in line will let out a disgusted sigh.
Maybe even you will be tempted to make fun of someone because of someone's opinion that you respect.
The best part is that everyone who makes fun of one of these caps thinks they are the first person to ever do it. They walk around all day expecting people to roll their eyes, shake their head, or let out that sigh and say things like, "Well, someone really knows how to make fun of the Christmas spirit!" Or, "You're lousy attitude is pretty awesome, it makes me want to send all of these people with the stupid hats right to the North Pole!... ha, ha, ha."
I have a better question for this year's perpetual dousers of festiveness, "Did you know that the root of your crabbyness is the same root found in those that clubbed baby seals?" Even though that isn't even a little bit true, I think it might be a hoot if the question made them cry...:-)
Well done. I admit (with my head lowered in self-pity) that I am not a big bundle of joy during December. (I promise that my reasons are mostly justified).
Your parody of my post was creative, but why do my critics insist on remaining "anonymous"?
Use your name. I promise, I won't get mad.
