Chad & the psycho Santa


We think Chad is about two-and-a-half here. We're merely guessing though, due to the huge two-year molars so clearly visible in the picture.

Honestly, I have never laughed harder at any picture. There's a lot going on here.
First, he's scared out of his mind. Which is not so funny, since I have a picture of Carys screaming like this while sitting on the Easter Bunny's lap.

But it is considerably funnier once you take a closer look at the Big Man dressed in red.

He looks like he's severely hung over. Or drugged. And I'm sure he really didn't like having screaming kids schlepped onto his lap every day for an entire month.
But goodness. He could have pulled himself together - you'd think he'd realize that moms everywhere save these pictures. He didn't even both to cover up his black mustache.
He does have rosy cheeks like the real S.C....but this faux Santa looks more like he has a skin disease; or was roughed up in the parking lot before starting his shift.

Poor little Chad. He really looks petrified. And now I know why he's not such a big fan of Christmas. He was traumatized as a wee wittle man. I think I may stay away from all things Santa after an encounter like that, too.


And he really looks like Cailyn in this picture. She screams exactly like that!
