Santa Claus, according to the legend, makes a list of all the children who were naughty and nice, and brings Christmas presents only to the nice children. A pun was posted on Reddit—Jokes on December 25, 2019:
“Out of the 26 letters, only E got presents for Christmas. The other letters were not-E.”
