You Better Watch Out

Some Scottish kids will be getting coal in their Christmas stockings this year after they pelted Santa with pastries last weekend.
The rapscallions threw mince pies at the big guy as he handed out chocolates at a shopping centre in the town of Paisley, near Glasgow.
After the incident, mall managers decided to trade in Santa’s red cap for a hard hat.
“Health and safety is paramount,” center manager Andrew MacKinnon said Wednesday. “We issued him with a yellow hardhat equipped with a pair of reindeer antlers to make it look more festive.”
If these kids don’t cut out the shenanigans, Santa may be clean-shaven next year.
