Scandalous! Or is it? The scandal is that there is a tape of it for the world to see — how horrifying. Could you imagine?! But people have threesomes all the time and it’s no big deal to them.

And that’s all you really need to know about Santa’s Watching, except I feel obliged to include the company’s description here because for some reason I find it really, really funny: Sure, we’ve all been there....

But it’s a good thing you didn’t vow to tell him every thought that goes through your head. Because, based on these confessions, if you had, you’d probably be divorced now … I rush home from work so I can crawl into bed and snuggle my dog for 15 minutes before my husband gets home with the baby … and sometimes, when they walk in, I’m disappointed they are home already....

You’ve heard of people so in love who died within hours, days, or months of each other seemingly with no other explanation other than they just couldn’t live without the other person — heartbreak.
