    Dear Billy:
    Nice spelling. You're on your way to a career in lawn care. How about I send you a f***ing book so you can learn to read and write? I'm giving your older brother the space ranger. At least HE can spell!
    Santa


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dear Santa:
    I have been a good girl all year, and the only thing I ask for is peace and joy in the world for everybody!
    Love, Sarah

    Dear Sarah:
    Your parents smoked pot when they had you, didn't they?

    Santa Dear Santa,
    I don't know if you can do this, but for Christmas, I'd like for my mommy and daddy to get back together. Please see what you can do.
    Love,Teddy

    Dear Teddy:
    Look, your dad's banging the baby-sitter like a screen door in a hurricane. Do you think he's gonna give that up to come back to your frigid Mom, who rides his @ss constantly? It's time to give up that dream. Let me get you some nice LEGOs instead.
    Santa


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dear Santa:
    I want a new bike, a Playstation, a train, some G.I. Joes, a dog, a drum kit, a pony and a tuba.
    Love, Francis

    Who names their kid "Francis" nowadays? I bet you're gay.

    I left milk and cookies for you under the tree, and I left carrots for your reindeer outside the back door.
    Love, Susan

    Dear Susan:
    Milk gives me the runs and carrots make the deer fart in my face when riding in the sleigh. You want to do me a favor? Leave me a bottle of scotch.
    Santa


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dear Santa:
    What do you do the other 364 days of the year? Are you busy making toys?
    Your friend, Thomas

    Dear Thomas:
    All the toys are made in China. I have a condo in Vegas, where I spend most of my time making low-budget porno films. I unwind by drinking myself silly and squeezing the @sses of cocktail waitresses while losing money at the craps table. Hey, you wanted to know.
    Santa


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dear Santa:
    Do you see us when we're sleeping, do you really know when we're awake, like in the song?
    Love, Jessica

    Santa


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dear Santa:
    I really really want a puppy this year. Please please please PLEASE PLEASE could I have one?
    Timmy
    Timmy,
    That whiny begging sh!t may work with your folks, but that crap doesn't work with me. You're getting a sweater again.
    Santa


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Dearest Santa,
    We don't have a chimney in our house, how do you get into our home?
    Love, Marky

    Mark,
    First, stop calling yourself "Marky," that's why you're getting your @ss whipped at school. Second, you don't live in a house, you live in a low-rent apartment complex. Third, I get inside your pad just like all the burglars do, through your bedroom window.
    Sweet Dreams, Santa

By Dr Pepper on Thursday, June 24, 2010 - 01:22 am:

    I walked to the front office because there was a small bottle of generic aspirin because I had a pounding headache. But one day, it vanished by unknown person.

    So I asked few of office worker about it. None of them had it, however, a forewoman told me, " you can ask Shirley, she has it, and she is in the bathroom."

    I told her, " You know, I cannot go in there". Everyone at the front office laughed.
