This is really the biggest thing for me. I mean, it's really stupid to lie to your kids for a few years when you obviously want to raise your kids not to lie, but what's even stupider is that there's no good reason to do it. The whole thing is just dumb.

Santa, by and large, is an unpleasant concept to me and my mom was never good at faking it to begin with. I doubt my future, hypothetical children will be raised to believe in him.

Haha hah, that's great, Lost. Thanks for the midnight chuckle. A dash of honesty is the best thing for children. :D

Irrational AND illogical. If I seem to be contradicting myself, then I have just proven my point.
