You should probably try and return all those bad presents.
You may be shocked to find how little you get for those bad presents.

I'm really sorry that I got you bad presents.
I'm really sorry that I got you bad presents.

STRONG BAD and HOMESTAR RUNNER: {Singing over the top} We're really sorry that you/I got us/you bad presents.

Spell a cuss word on the roof with Christmas lights!
Invite Crazy Uncle Edgar over, keep his egg nog spiked!
Hang out behind the mall in a black trench coat!
Hang out in front of the mall in a black trench coat!
If I don't get video games for Decemberween!
If I don't get video games for Decemberween!
