    Yeah, since you completely unaware of certain fact….

    Christmas time is a time of unbearable stress for most Americans. Stress causes people to do all kinds of things like drink too much and poke swipes at jolly fat men.

    We have a guy already bombed by 4 in the afternoon, takes a swing at a fake Santa Claus then scuffles with cops. Cue to Ralph Edwards: “Jerome Volk, THIS IS YOUR LIFE!”
