    I knew being Jewish would pay off for me one day.

      but did you remember to properly opt out of Santa’s list™ via the correct sequence of letters to Santa?

        How did Santa even get my name? I’m pretty sure my parents Santablocked him before I was born!

          did your parents opt out prior to your birth, because “he sees you when you’re sleeping” would probably give him your name through your parents.

            I think my ancestors opted out by not worshipping the guy nailed to the tree.

    I have always wondered what ratio of naughty:nice tips the balance on one side or the other. Santa’s list seems awfully binary

      Given the source material, Santa has come a long way just to get to the punishment being coal instead of being beaten or eaten.

      I knew a kid in school who was poor or jewish… not really sure now that I think back about it… But he thought it was a scale and the better you are the better present you get, then it goes the opposite way into no present, then if you’re really bad you get coal. He would always try to be as horrible as possible during the holiday season in hopes of getting coal. But he never had such luck.

      At the rate vital information keeps leaking, we can keep the general population covered in free identity theft protection indefinitely.

    Also a lot of information about what they want for Christmas, which can be used for market research and customer profiling. Not to mention you can scan and OCR all those letters to Santa and use them train AIs. Finally, Santa’s dropping off presents… and not leaving behind any advertising?

      Man, Chat GPT’s spelling has really gone to shit lately. It’s like all the responses were written by second graders.
