Go Here: Santa Claus, Indiana
As the Holidays get closer, decorations are popping up everywhere we look. In a little town in Indiana, though, it's Christmas all year long, and it's a little weird.

When Chris Burd was 13-years-old he went to the mall in Maplewood, Minn during Christmas time. He was with his three-year-old sister, and to appease her he also sat on the lap of the mall's Santa Claus and asked for gifts.
Fast forward 13 years. Chris had recently become engaged when he got a call from his mother who tells him she had made an interesting discovery while going through a batch of old pictures.
Got a guy on your Christmas list who you need to impress? Maybe your boss, her dad, or your grandfather who keeps telling you how back in his day men didn't wear skinny jeans or use moisturizer? You can relax now, we've found it: get them a personalized bottle of Knob Creek bourbon.
With all the time we spend on Pinterest, it's no wonder we've come across so much quirky and awesome stuff. Half our holiday gift and decorating ideas come from the site alone! Want to check out Disney/Star Wars mash-up art or a cheeseburger dress? They've got you covered. Not surprisingly, the site also has a whole slew of questionable holiday products you can pin and repin, like a pickle ornament or a creepy spandex reindeer costume.
While I still don't know what to think of this video myself, it will get your heart pumping and your blood racing with some of the shots in Phil Vassar's new Santa's Gone Hollywood' Christmas song and video. This is one video you don't want little kids to watch because they'll be asking you, "did Santa really more to California, 'cause I thought Santa was more conservative than that?" or "Is that really Mrs Claus, 'cause it doesn't look like that lady knows how to bake cookies?" I will warn you the video is a little racy, check it out.
Aside from that time when a cousin, without a trace of irony, sent a family Christmas card that was a picture of all the kids dressed up in hunting camo holding rifles, these are the best family Christmas cards ever. They were made by Redditor TPThatsMe, and if you go to the post on Imgur, you can also watch a video for how each of the photos came into being.
Christmas-themed video games might seem like the best way for developers to cash in on the holiday season, but there's a conspicuous lack of these titles on the market. Believe it or not, this is a good thing, because the vast majority of Christmas games to date have been pretty bad and, what's more, inexplicably weird.
This new Christmas single from John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, which is supposed to be the sequel (song-quel?) to the 'Grease' classic 'You're the One That I Want,' has created a bit of a moral dilemma. Is it wrong to think something is totally worthless, even if it's for charity? Because this is just awful.
What's worse than a news anchor blabbing on live TV that Santa isn't real? How about a Texas kindergarten teacher revealing the terrible truth about Saint Nick to her entire class of five-year-olds? Yep, that actually happened.
While I was out looking for "The Best Place To Buy A Christmas Tree," I ran across a lot of beautiful Christmas decorations. I got a little carried away as my camera just kept on clicking picture after picture, before I knew it I had a lot of photos of some incredible Holiday decorations. I came to a conclusion, "West Texas has so many different avenues for Christmas decorating" Check these out.
I had a dream the other night about Santa. Yes, I still dream of Santa but it wasn't the kind of dream where he's bringing me presents; I was trying to capture him. I'm not sure what spurred this dream other than I had watched a show on TV where people had been kidnapped and a lot of violence ensued. I wasn't trying to hurt Santa, mind you, I was just trying to capture him.
One of my favorite things about the Christmas holidays, besides eating mass quantities of food with the family, is all of the movies and TV shows that come on during this time of year. Some we just happen to catch, while others we make it a point to watch every single year. Here are a few of my favorites that I think everyone must see.
