Christmas Quotes meaning?
Dear santa, i've been good all year.
Most of the time.
Once in a while.
Never mind,
I will buy my own stuff. ;)
What is the meaning of this Christmas quote?
Can someone explain it, please?
Why is it said so?
Thank you :)

The theory of Christmas is that good children get nice presents while bad children get nothing (or a lump of coal traditionally). So in the quote the person is claiming to have been good, then realises that Santa knows this is not true so drops their present claim and finally gives up and says they will buy their own presents.
Not really very Christmassy.
