Not a question, but the situation was just absurd. I was working in a big department store and happened by when this happened on 23 rd of December. People are shopping the last minute gifts and decorations. There's a long line to the gift wrapping table where two girl are doing it as fast as they can, serving a 30-something lady with several items. In really low voice she says: "don't put an effort into making them real pretty.. they are just for myself". That was kinda sad too, but I laughed, bastard as I am.

A small girl (~5) is holding her dad's hand and trying to keep up with his speed. He looks to be in a hurry and not in very good mood. She sees a Santa and some children lining to tell him their xmas present wishes.
Girl: "Dad, do you think that's real Santa?"
Dad: "Not bloody likely."
