    OK folks, the utter futility of this is now swamping my brain, but we have all our answers in :p

    We have six different options for Santa to try...

    Photo-2019-12-23-02-06-07-PM.jpg

    But which will sheep? Scores to follow...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,576 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    I'm sure Santa's looking to forward to visiting you all after seeing these...
    What even day is it? I'm doing this on the fly in the alcohol section of Sainsburys while I buy my wine before I head home for Christmas
    (EN: it's 08:16 :pac:)
    Do the Reindeer count? Should I pick a drink?
    F**ked if I know, something imaginary because
    he's not real...
    Saw the question last night, slept on it to decide which to go for... Still have no idea
    omg, i have no idea, we didn't leave anything for him when I was a kid!!

    so google tells me cookies, milk, mince pies.....blah blah blah.
    do they leave guinness?
    Love the friends gif!

    Cookie, now you can punch him
    I should say whiskey here but some lunatics probably leave out milk. Mince pie might sheep but fcuk mince pies, they're rank
    my Santa prefers a whiskey but the kids insisted he had milk because her shouldn't drink and drive his sleigh
    Guinness! Or at least that's what we always left out. Not that I condone drinking and driving.
    Nearly answered carrots but they're not for Santa!
    Mince pies (which he doesn’t eat because they are gick)
    Mince Pie. Although I don't know what Santa did to deserve that. Should we not leave something edible out for him?
    If this is an ace, just know that you've RUINED my Christmas. :p
    Now is there a cultural divide between north and south Santa? Choice of Tayto for example???

    Milk has to sheep, cookie second, and a carrot third...you can close the question now and just base the points on that amazing foresight

    I was going to say milk but went for cookie instead. - did I make a big mistake?

    Does kitten have this sewn up now?!

    Yeah, the competition has been a lot more fun since I've realised there's no chance of me getting a podium position, and that there's very little danger of me coming bottom of the pack, safe in the knowledge I can give whatever answer I like and there's little to no repercussions...

    It's fun watching all these sober losers fight over Cookies, Milk, and Mince Pies desperately grabbing at whatever points they can manage, while myself, BuileBeag, and Necro are getting in to the real spirit of Christmas with alcohol and fun. :D

    Not to you, but if you'd gone cookies instead of milk there'd only be one point between Molly and Deja Boo at the bottom!

    I'm saving all the beer, whiskey and cookies for myself, let Santa munch away on some carrots I say! Plus the milk gets very warm beside the fire
