Ho, Ho, Oh, No! the Best #SantaFails of the Season
‘Tis the season for tears and tantrums! While the origin of everyone’s favorite holiday hashtag seems to be the stuff of mysteries, like Rudolph’s red nose and how exactly Santa fits down the chimney flue, one thing’s for sure: #santafail is the gift that keeps on giving—until it happens to you. Here’s hoping your little elves bring more smiles than sniffles when they meet the big man in red.
Even celebrity family photos take some improvisation.

Naughty and Nice, personified.
"You’re a cotton-headed ninnymuggins!"
Big sister is the only one pulling her weight for the Christmas card.
If you can’t beat em, join em.
All she wants for Christmas is to get the heck out of there.

Ho, ho, ho? More like, “No, no, no!”

Missing: Tidings of comfort and joy.
The wig is a red herring. You are definitely not Grandma!
Santa knows if you’ve been bad or good…or are pooping in his arms.
“Take that, Santa.”
“I wasn’t bad! She made me do it!”
“First you made me wear tights, and now I have to sit through this?”
The one time bribery is not going to work.
“There better be a really big present for me under that tree when we get home!”
