Christmas Stocking PSA Takes Aim At Lazy Dads

There's a viral Christmas stocking PSA doing the rounds on the internet taking aim at lazy dads. You best pay attention!

Lazy dads are clearly being put on blast this holiday season. In case Santa forgets to fill your wife's stocking it's up to you to make it right, lazy dads! However, not everyone does or will. Now, they've been warned in a video that's going viral online. You can check out the video shared by @whataboutaub on TikTok below.

In the video, the husband is shown showing off all the gifts on Christmas morning laid out in front of the tree. Then, he shows the stockings of everyone in the family, the kids, his own, and apparently even the dog's stocking but then one is shown left untouched with nothing inside. It's then revealed that it's his wife's stocking and apparently Santa didn't come for her and the husband forgot to fill it in the morning!

Now, the video is being used as a reminder to lazy dads everywhere that if Santa happens to forget to fill your wife's stocking it's up to you to fix that problem and make sure there's something in there for her. I bet she's not the only mom who has had this happen and judging by the comments on the video that seems to be the case. It seems to be happening far too often. Now, the video has more than 226,000 likes and almost 5,000 comments on TikTok. It seems like people are certainly relating to the viral video.

As always, the comment section is hilarious. One user on TikTok said, "May this love never find me" and another woke up and chose violence saying, "Him chuckling would've put me over the edge." That's a good point. Let's remember to follow up on this couple next year to see if they're still together or if he was able to put her stocking together this time. Hopefully he learned his lesson but you never know when you're dealing with lazy dads. I'm sure this video was all planned out and she was in on it, but I also feel like her stocking wasn't filled that morning and it's probably what inspired the video to be made in the first place. What do you think? Does she have a point in calling out lazy dads or is it an overreaction?

'Tis the season for Christmas movies, but what makes a Christmas movie a "Christmas movie?" Does it have to take place on Christmas? Must Christmas be the primary theme? Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?

It's a question that seems to be as old as the holiday itself. Everyone has an opinion, and we could be closer to an answer than ever before.

In determining what makes a Christmas movie a "Christmas movie," Yahoo! UK came up with a two-question litmus test. To try to determine if a movie is indeed a Christmas movie, they say you have to first ask "does watching the film at any other time of year feel weird? If no, then it's not a Christmas movie."

Then, they suggest you ask, "if you take Christmas out of the movie, does it still make sense? If yes, then it's not a Christmas movie."

I think those are fair criteria. It's not a Christmas movie if you can watch it during the summer and have no issue. If it has the same feel in August as it does on Christmas, it shouldn't be a Christmas movie.

Likewise, I feel like Christmas has to be the primary theme of the movie. If you can remove Christmas from the plot and it still makes sense it shouldn't be considered a Christmas movie.

So, given these characteristics I feel like Die Hard would not be considered a Christmas movie. Despite the movie taking place on Christmas, you can watch the movie all year long. It doesn't have to be exclusively tied to Christmas. To me, it doesn't pass the litmus test.

In a new poll, 26% of people said that Die Hard is a Christmas movie. 50% of people surveyed said it is not. Then, 23% say they "aren't sure."

Die Hard isn't the only movie that we question if it's a Christmas movie or not. Some of the best movies of all-time could fall into this vague area. Here are five other movies that are debatable Christmas movies, just like Die Hard.

You can't think about Mean Girls without thinking of the Jingle Bell Rock performance. They're all in their Santa outfits. However, Christmas isn't a big enough theme in the movie.

Harry Potter works great year round. It's a Christmas movie, it's a Halloween movie, due to all the feasts it's even a Thanksgiving movie. However, because of all these factors I don't think it's really a Christmas movie. Still great, though.

A lot of the movie happens on Christmas Eve. It's a big part of the movie. However, no way can we consider it a Christmas movie.

It was originally marketed as a Christmas movie for kids. However, because it's so different from the others it's hard to call it a Christmas movie. Does it pass the test in your opinion?

Pretty much the entire movie takes place during the Christmas season. It's tied very closely to Christmas. It could actually be a Christmas movie, if you think about it.
