Santa's List

This Hub is an alternate reality hub. Where you see through the eyes of your younger self...as a child. Where mystical figures still exist such as the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny, and yes even Santa Claus. But this time around is somewhat different. This time I have some serious questions for you Mr. Claus.

As a child, I always wondered how Santa tallied up his good/bad list. Was it a point system? Was it pure mathematics, where he came up with some type of formula? Did he meet up with the Almighty himself (pssst, God, what to you think about this one?). Either way, I never really understood this crapass system of his. I often saw rotten little brats get the best presents and shook my head in disbelief! Maybe it was a simple blindfold and Santa just randomly picked who was naughty or nice.

So, with this new and profound way of looking at the situation, I ask YOU Santa Claus...do you really check that list twice, big shot? Or how about this...have you been a good boy? Would you make the precious nice list?? I think not...you hypocritical, good for nothin, two-headed rotten snake! Or perhaps you would put on that infamous blindfold and magically appear on the list like all the other rift rats I see.

I'm not bitter...well, maybe a little...I just want answers! Answer the little ten year-old boy, why oh why, did the rich kid who tormented everyone get the Super Nintendo, and I got a pair of socks and some Voltron tidy whities? Tell me why, I was made fun of in class for getting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle sneakers, while the big snot received a brand new 10 speed bike? Tell me, why Santa. Why?

Your hub is thought-provoking on many levels. This hub is entertaining and well-written, and it also raises questions about justice and entitlement. What does it mean to the ten year-old to see the rotten, spoiled rich kid get the Super Nintendo or the ten-speed bike? Where is the justice in that? (I probably sound bitter myself, huh?)

I hope Santa is good to all of us this year. We can all use a break.

Thanks for your post.

This is so interesting and unique,more importantly, makes me think (like Santa) when reading it. I loved it. You are very talented.
