    The most surprising result was being ‘allowed’ to comment on a quiz. Thank you Journal overlords for this Christmas miracle.

    Was this quiz posted last year? I’m sure it was said before that Jack called Santa ‘Sandy Claws’ not ‘Santa Claws’. He even thinks he’s a lobster at one point! How could we, the viewers, possibly notice the difference between Santa Claws and Santa Claus?
