I can only imagine that Santa knows the difference between evil and good ^

That was until he went crazy, got his shotgun and massacred the reindeers.

That's nothing new. I also give Santa wood every time he comes round. He sure loves unwrapping my package!

Joke aside, because everyone keeps mentioning coal, I'll share a story. Many many years ago my brother was dating a woman who was a bitch. She had her nice moments, but on the whole wasn't a pleasant person IMO. She told me this story once and she thought it was so funny!

She gave some friends a box of coal for xmas. Naturally, they thought it was her being her nasty self, so they threw the box out. She later called and asked what they thought of the present. They were none too pleased. She asked did they like the tickets? What tickets? She had hidden tickets under the coal. So then they had to go and dig through the trash until the found the box, to get the tickets. She thought the whole thing was hilarious. I didn't know what to say.

Absolute maverick behaviour there!

...and not on your part at all.

I thought the end of the story would be that she had lied about the tickets and had made them dig the trash for nothing. xD But hiding a nice present under a joke one is not bitchy at all. It's a bit funny that her friends had to go on a rescue mission because they thought ill of her.

It's just straight-up stalking…
Santa Claus is basically a creep:

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town lyrics

"He sees you when you're sleeping.
He knows when you're awake…"

And then the opening part makes sense now:
"You better watch out.
You better not cry…"

…

"He's making a list…"
There goes the targets!

"And checking it twice…"
Verified — there's no escape. Ho-Ho!

"Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice."
Preferences preferences…

…

"He knows if you've been bad or good"
See? He knows! That's some Pro Stalking right there.

"So be good for goodness sake!"
Means — "Be submiss~ " uuh- erhm… I'll stop here.

<insert Santa's naughty Ho-Ho-Ho imagination bubble>

Not generally, no. But the emotions at the time would be to assume it was a joke, be amused, and either look more into the box or call them up to figure out what the joke was. But when you open a present and think it's an insult, one of many they've done, and throw the box out having a negative feeling from the experience, that IS bitchy. It's why I mentioned her character for context.

Add powdered laxatives to the cookie flour, and use lactulose in the cookies instead of sugar. I wouldn't want to be Rudolph later on, that's all I'm saying... he's coming out of it all with a brown nose...
