Which Santa do you like best?
The first one looks the kindest but he definitely doesn't got no loot for me. I like the middle guy, he's laid back and looks like magic comes easy to him. But Santa didn't make me happy as a kid, he just tricked me into going to bed and tidying my room.
This makes me happy at Christmas:

And this:
"Suppose there was a king who loved a humble maiden. This king was like no other king. Every statesman trembled before his power. No one dared breathe a word against him, for he had the strength to crush all opponents. And yet this mighty king was melted by love for a humble maiden. How could he declare his love for her? In an odd sort of way, his kingliness tied his hands. If he brought her to the palace and crowned her head with jewels and clothed her body in royal robes, she would surely not resist – no one dared resist him. But would she love him?
She would say she loved him, of course, but would she truly? Would she be happy at his side? How could he know? If he rode to her forest cottage in his royal carriage, with an armed escort waving bright banners, that too would overwhelm her. He did not want a cringing subject. He wanted a lover."
- Soren Kierkegaard
Christmas, you see. Christmas.
