Since there are already too many blogs about the Top 10 Christmas movies, or Top Whatever Whatever lists that glorify the already famous and well known, I’ve decided to compile a list of the the top 25 average people whose holiday photos place them solidly within the category of “characters.” This list might make you appreciate your own family just a smidge more, so without further ado…

#25. This trio of Christmas hipsters.

#24. Zombie Santa and the little girl that loves him.

#23. This baby that is just overflowing with the Christmas spirit. And vomit.

#22. This kid for doing whatever he did to end up in Christmas lights jail.

#21. This family of Christmas trees. Not for their costumes, but for managing to look happy about wearing them.

#20. This guy's wife, for putting up with him.

#19. This family that thinks they need special glasses to see life in 3D.

#18. This Santa for his unrelenting patience.

#17. The kid in the middle for not being afraid of shrinkage.

#16. This homicidal toddler in a plush velvet track suit.

#15. Dad, for lettin' it all hang out there.

#14. Hunky Santa for managing to keep a straight face.

#13. Mom, for wearing Frederick's of Hollywood in and out of the bedroom.

#12. The kid in the back for having the cajones to ruin a family photo.

#11. The property owner with enough enthusiasm about Jesus to buy and install the sign, but not enough to repair it.

#10. For everything about this picture, but especially the baby goat.

#9. This family for confusing Genesis with the birth of Christ.

#8. This couple for saying, "Baby Jesus, bulldog. Potato, pot-ah-to."

#7. This guy, for convincing the cops to let him keep his hat on for the mug shot.

#6. This woman, for her will to live.

#5. These guys, 'cause I want them to come over to my house and do the same thing.

#4. That cat, for being a trooper.

#3. This guy, for livening up the holidays with his sweet gymnastics skills.

#2. Because who doesn't love a gay Christmas elf?

#1. Because Jesus loves winners!

I’m pretty sure that trio of hipsters is Hanson. As in Mmmbop. I could be wrong. But I’m not.

Wait, is #7 the guy who directed the original Hairspray and a bunch of other stuff? John Waters?
