A reddit.com contributor called Simon explained that his extensive educational background came in handy when he worked as a Santa in a shopping mall, especially when faced with a smart-alec preteen.

“When I asked him what he wanted for Christmas, he flatly said, ‘Coal,’” recounts Simon. “Being a jovial spirit, I asked, ‘Bituminous or anthracite?’

“Absolutely threw him for a loop.”
