Christmas is almost here, and we’re feeling jolly.

What better way to get into the festive spirit than watching an average family hoping for a truly great Christmas miracle?

In a daring move of festive creativity, The Simpsons began its decades-long run as the most beloved adult animated show of all time with a Christmas special: “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire.”

This episode captured the essence of an American Christmas in a way that no other sitcom ever has, before or since. 

In “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire,” Bart's rash decision to lie about his age and get a tattoo causes the Simpsons family to lose its entire Christmas present budget. When Mr. Burns greedily cancels his company's Christmas bonuses, Homer is stuck trying to figure out how to put presents under the tree and food on the table simultaneously. 

With that said, later in the episode they capture the essence of a middle-class Christmas: financial struggles, parents doing everything they can for their kids, and the idea that love rises above everything else.

People on Twitter will do anything to truly capture the spirit. Today’s funniest posts involve the word air being “non-existent,” the Las Vegas Sphere, and some very strange-looking Oreos.
