See Over 800 Santas Running in Germany
Roughly 800 people put on Santa costumes for the Fourth Annual Michendorf Santa Run in Michendorf, Germany. The race is sponsored by Laufclub Michendorf (which translated means Michendorf Running Club, imagine that) and is 10 kilometers long. You can't quite tell from these pictures, but it actually began snowing pretty hard during the race, which probably makes these the most Christmas-y photos ever. Enjoy!

Singing UPS Guy Is Modern Day Santa
Here's a nice UPS man singing a Christmas song about how he's basically a modern-day Santa. He actually makes a good point. Plus, he can sing.

John Travolta And Olivia Newton-John Reunite to Ruin Christmas
This new Christmas single from John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, which is supposed to be the sequel (song-quel?) to the 'Grease' classic 'You're the One That I Want,' has created a bit of a moral dilemma.

Girl Puts Cat on Treadmill, Doesn’t End in Tragedy
You might want to watch a video of a cat on a treadmill for the moment when it goes flying off and hits a door hard enough to make a sound but not hard enough to injure the cat. This is not that video

Jimmy Fallon, Mariah Carey and The Roots Perform Best ‘All I Want For Christmas’ Rendition Ever
If only Jimmy Fallon's show was just music. Here is probably the best rendition of 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' ever, performed by Mariah Carey, Jimmy Fallon, and the Roots on toy instruments. Oh! Plus a chorus of jack-in-the-box kids wearing winter hats.
