Interestingly Dull Factoid #7 + 8

Child Scams

Sorry to break this one to some of you but..... Santa Claus a.k.a. Fr. Christmas [factoid 7] doesn't exist and neither does the Tooth Fairy [factoid8]. They are both infact made up and their duties are performed by one of your parents at the required time i.e. Christmas or when a milktooth drops out.

NB Usually the part of Santa Claus in public places such as the shopping centre/mall or in the department store grotto is played by a hired bum, hence why Santa Claus smells of booze (it's not because of what's left at the bottom of the chimney with the mince pies).
