What are some of the best short funny xmas stories?

Sure. One story is about Santa Claus getting his beard stuck in the chimney while delivering presents. He wiggled and jiggled until finally he popped out, but his beard was all askew and he looked quite comical.

A little boy once wrote a letter to Santa asking for a real live reindeer. When Santa showed up at his house on Christmas Eve, he brought a stuffed reindeer and said 'This is the best I could do for now. Keep being good and one day you might get a real one!'

One funny Xmas story is about a family that got a live turkey for Christmas dinner. But the turkey escaped and ran around the house, with the kids chasing it. It finally hid under the Christmas tree. The family was so amused that they decided to keep the turkey as a pet instead of having it for dinner.

One funny xmas story is about a family who got a real live reindeer as a surprise gift. But the reindeer was more interested in eating the Christmas tree than being part of the festive scene. It ran around the living room with tinsel in its antlers, causing chaos and laughter.

Surprise elements often make a xmas story funny. For example, when a gift turns out to be something completely unexpected like in the story of the boy getting a mini - plush dinosaur instead of a real - life - size one. Another element could be animal antics. Animals not behaving as expected during Christmas, like the reindeer eating the Christmas tree, can be really humorous.

There are many like 'The Santa's Mishaps' which shows Santa getting into all sorts of hilarious situations while delivering gifts.

Well, 'The Santa Clause' is one. It has funny scenes of Santa's adventures and the chaos that ensues. Also, 'A Charlie Brown Christmas' has its share of humor with the Peanuts gang's antics.

One common theme is generosity. For example, in many stories, people share their food, gifts, or time during Christmas, like the story where the rich give to the poor. Another theme is family. Xmas is a time for family reunions, and stories often revolve around families coming together, even if they had been apart for a while.

A family once got a live turkey for Christmas dinner. But the kids became so attached to it that they named it Tom and made it their pet. So, instead of having a turkey dinner, they had a vegetarian Christmas meal that year. It was really funny how the kids managed to convince their parents to keep Tom.

At an office Christmas party, there was a Secret Santa gift exchange. One person received a pair of socks with a picture of their boss's face on it. Everyone burst out laughing when they saw it. It turned out to be a really creative and funny gift that lightened up the whole party.
