What?! of being naughty against Three deductions of being nice.
It's bad.
Three? You didn't deduct all my nice invoices.
Look, what about this one? Yes, well, i didn't think "Hitting clyde in the balls with slingshot" Really counted as nice.
It was nice for token, he laughed for like 20 minutes.
You can't deduct things like that, eric, Santa will know and he'll come after you.
God dammit, i have to get that haibo robot doll, You son of a bitch! Hey, i'm just your naughty or nice accountant, Don't blame me for the numbers! Haven't you seen the haibo doll? It's like a pet, a robot pet.

Right now in iraq there are children who fear us And what we might do to their country.
The threat of war touches us all- But over in iraq, there is no christmas.
They have nothing.

You know, you're right.
Santa hasn't been to that part of the world in a long time.
Perhaps santa could bring peace to this whole situation! That's what i thought.
