for the last time, its because his sledge is on the roof. the roof is his runway. he doesn't carry a ladder with him to climb down to the front door because he's fat. and can't really be arsed. so he magic's his fat arse down the chimney. where he scoffs the pie's you left out for him, making his ass fatter. so next year it's too fat for the ladder. again. story of his fat arsed life. i'm his fitness instructor, he never makes any progress. leave skimmed milk.

It's just tradition, that is all. Plus Santa is a good way to curve behavior around the end of the year.

You got to many questions. Your in violation 6.25-3A... \n\nxmas lanterns came originated from the Asia, replicating the bright star that guided the 3 kings to the stables. xmas tree came from the western world. they were so bored they decorated pine trees. Santa Claus is a Saint! Each regions of the world has their own interpretation and versions. but basically, businessman upgraded the Santa idea.

st. nicholas was a good guy that gave out presents arround chirtmass time, thing that money other peolple strated doing untill it become what is now. then toy factories started making money out of people who carry out this tradition and one day they decided tocreate this fat guy for a slogan. so santa is just like sonic in a lot of ways just a fictional charater.

Santa has a long standing, top level security pass. It allows him into no fly zones, and across borders with impunity.\n\nYour presents are safe this year.

Let Santa be.  There's benefit in just about everything.  If that fat rascal comes down my chimney, I can see his suit fur cleaning out my chimney liner.  It beats paying a chimney sweep.  And I get a present.

Every year on christmas eve "the birds" (santas) leave new pyjamas on our beds to let us know Santa has left the north pole. Since I moved out 2 years ago mum arranged for my fiancee to leave new pjs on my bed for me, I think its a really lovely tradition that i'll carry on when I have children of my own.\nMy dad used to wrap up useless presents to give to all the adults, like used spark plugs etc, all the kids thought it was hilarious, even more so because it infuruated mum.\n\nI really like suprise presents, santa would hide a few "extra" presents around the house with our names on them... usually something we really wanted, and a few unexpected things.

It is!!! no really !!!  We have not read or heard of that theory, oh ... well for at least a thousand times.\n\nOh please.  Well, you just live and let live.  You don't like it, no one is forcing you to celebrate Christmas.  Please, have a life and let other have enjoy theirs.

In Anglo-Saxon countries, Santa Claus is said to leave a lump of coal instead of Christmas presents in the stockings of naughty children.\n\nUnless you've been naughty, you've nothing to worry about, but if you get an aluminum foil wrapped, irregularly shaped and fairly small stocking stuffer... you should probably try to behave better next year!

who doesn't?? Santa is the greatest man alive!! He gives free presents just to make us happy and to spread holiday cheer. i think that if more people started to actually take Santa seriously christmas wouldn't get as much bad press as it did last year (crimes & such):(

Turn up the radio.....you'll hear it. They broadcast the cash register sound and if I remember correctly, Santa goes HO-HO-HO. And they give the phone number to call in. It's at different times each hour. Just listen to The River and you'll know. Good Luck getting through, I can't seem to!

They are as follows:\n\nDec.1 at 12:01 am. and they have informed me that you have to cut down your own tree, and decorate it on DEC. 9 at 4:30 in the afternoon.  If you should have any questions about the decoration gods and times of decoration please feel free to call this 1800 number...1800-337-7378

well some people believe that the only way you go to the fire place is if you refuse to believe in him.\n\nthe similarities between god and santa claus are uncanny, except if you are bad, santa only punishes you with no presents on christmas but god makes you BURN!
