Shoulda stayed away from the green eggs and ham, it would appear.

Holiday edition:

I find it funny that a lot of Christmas media revolves around some kid having a crisis of faith regarding the existence of Santa Claus.  Like, a kid no longer believing in him is some sort of tragic loss of innocence, and that faith in something that doesn't exist is still beneficial.  

I deduced that Santa wasn't real when I was somewhere around 4 or 5.  I figured that Santa didn't really work for Hasbro or Mattel, and the penmanship on the gift tags was identical with my mom's.  And when I came to that revelation, I wasn't sad.  I just shrugged, because I knew I would still get gifts anyway.

Yeah, I noticed the penmanship, too. But I was 7, because I was blind as a bat, and didn't get glasses until I was 11. I didn't say shit, because if I mentioned that Santa wasn't real, I might get cut off from presents, as a result.
