{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|And so much snow!}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon}}
{{TB|Hey, EA! Ever hear of global warming? The whole “White Christmas” thing doesn’t really happen anymore.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Lisa, everyone knows EA is overrun with global warming deniers.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}

{{TB|There's a big crate outside our house addressed to “Resident.” Is that for us?}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Well, I don’t mean to brag, but… yeah, it’s true. Your old man is a “Resident.” Been one my whole life. It’s pretty sweet.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|Sorry we never told you you’re descended from Residents. Your mother and I didn’t want it to go to your head.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}
{{TB|You’d naturally want to lord it over other, less-fortunate kids at school.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Deadpan}}
{{TB|Yeah, thanks a bunch. I really just want to know what’s inside the crate.}}

{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon}}
{{TB|“Please accept this present delivery depot. Best Regards, The Claus Co. Public Relations Department. Also, Global Warming is a hoax.”}}

{{Tapped Out Homer Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|I love getting gift cards! They let me choose the gift I want.}}
{{Tapped Out Homer Icon}}

{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon}}
{{TB|They say they’re redeemable at a store called “Claus Co.”}}
