Behold: The World's Most Nihilistic Santa Letter Was Written By a Six-Yr-Old

What did your Santa letters look like at six?

Most six-year-olds live for Christmas. The months leading up to that day are spent badgering parents to tell Santa what they expect on Christmas morning and paying special attention to their behaviour in the weeks before (let's be honest, the rest of the year is fair game).

But one kid in the United States—perhaps the only one of his peers—is a serious Santa sceptic.

In a letter to Santa that his class made him write, he explained that Santa's life is "emty". Give this kid a prize already.

It read: "Dear Santa,

Santa Im only doing this for the class. I know your notty list if emty. And your good list is emty. and your life is emty. You dont know the trouble Ive had in my life.

Good bye.

love

Im not telling you my name."

Bleak.

His mother clarified that his "troubles" weren't anything wicked. 

PS - the "troubles" in his life? His brother. Don't call child services. 😂

Real life footage captured from the North Pole went a little something like this.

But, whatever Santa, the kid has spoken.

To add further insult to injury, the letter was decorated with Christmas wreaths and skulls and what looks like it might be bats: another doomy omen.

For some people, Christmas isn't the season of giving, it's the season of realising the world for what it is and letting everyone know about it.
