Well, we're deciding who the greatest superhero is, so I thought we could tackle another question for the ages.

It's still real to me, dammit!

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. We can eliminate China and India, plus most of the Middle East as places he would visit. Then, in the rest of the world, he would only visit good girls and boys.

He only has to visit about 200 kids over the course of the night, most of them live in Utah.

Santa Claus is real because Santa Claus is the spirit of giving. Whenever an old dude suits up for a mall Santa gig, or you label a special present for your kid "from Santa," or you put a toy in the "Toys for Tots" bin, you are Santa for a while, and that's why Santa is real.

That's my take anyway. Those other options sure are funny though, huh?

Krydor: I love that you use the same rhetorical methods to make the case for Santa as you do for Republicans...

Sol: Was that you that voted for the "I'm still really angry about being gypped with the whole 'Eight Crazy Nights' bullshit" option? Come on, tell us all about it.

[Ryan Who Loves Punk]

Haha, I remember when this was a huge existential debate for me.

[salmonjunkie]

But that was only a year ago, Ryan. You're only 9 years old, after all.

No geek, I voted for you to suck my schlong. Not you personally, the royal you. Sorry to let you down, cowboy. That said, I like Santa, especially in this classic. Watch for Thai's cameo as a singer in the end.

[Batman]

Oh yeah. That's the one I meant. Never mind.

[Courtney]

All I know is that even though I don't live at home anymore, I will spend Christmas Eve at my parents and Santa will bring me presents. ;D
