Christmas time is not just mistletoe and wine, but also a great inspiration for many funny fails and the absolute best Christmas jokes. Do you wonder why that is? Well, let's start with the fact that you will most likely be meeting some weird relatives that you only see once a year, the other more obvious thing is that people tend to relax from all the worries at this time, and, inspired by the Christmas spirit, let themselves a bit loose. And that is where the best memes come from.

The Christmas season is in the air, the usual holiday songs permeate the airwaves, decorated trees have been set-up, and of course, shoppers have begun to flood the shops and malls. Depending on you, this time of year can be the best or incredibly stressful, so take a break from trimming the tree and check out some funny memes.

These Christmas memes collected by Bored Panda are sure to put you in the holiday spirit or at least give you a good laugh. From not being able to afford that perfect present to the inevitable holiday weight, these funny jokes remind us it wouldn't be the holidays without some bumps in the road.

This dog has much more understanding of guilt than does the president of the USA. If there can be only one pardon, this fellow gets it.

Oooh, so many people could use that (me too sometimes). There already are so many dictionaries online, if only more people would use them...

Ah yes, my parent's favorite excuse. That and "We provide you a roof over your heads, and money for food and clothes." You LEGALLY have to do that as I am a minor and your child...that is not a "gift'... you would be trouble with the law if you didn't. Sigh...

This is actually just the attiude of the parents who claim that their children should be grateful for being born. The above things are no gifts; if you deprive your children of them you are conducting abuse and deprivation, and it is unlawful on top of that. so, get off you "it's my house" high horse.

True for basics like electricity. Still, I'd be happy to put bows on their PlayStation, LegoCollection etc. Just to remind them to be - at least once a year - to be grateful for them.

Are we seriously gonna get all snooty about a meme? It's a joke... kids ARE super disrespectful and ungrateful (not all of them I'm just speaking in general). No one CHOSE to be born but that doesn't mean that we need to treat them like little precious artifacts that can be wounded super easily...who do you think raised all the kids that people call snowflakes and entitled? How about we all pull the stick out realize that some things are actually kinda funny and also stop putting our children on a peristalsis that makes them all self important!!!

Spoiled children have been a thing since the mass culture and consumption started showing interest in them. Or maybe earlier, when sociologists started studying childhood and teens. Let's keep 1948 as a milestone, it's the year Toys R Us was founded. So boomers and gen X-ers are also a generation of spoiled children. And they are still so entitled that they now deny the next generations, Y and Z, what themselves received as kids or young adults.

I never took these things for granted, myself. We were poor, and often had the utilities shut off, and sometimes not much food to eat. Kids should feel grateful that they have parents who are taking care of them. But they should not be made to feel guilty for it, either.

It's not about the parents' duty to buy gifts, it's about the young generations being called entitled and blamed for their ungratefulness when the previous ones got as much from their parents and society, while the present youth is more qualified, innovative, entrepreneurial and yet is struggling to find decent jobs and living conditions.

This is kinda stupid, providing basic necessities of life shouldn't be portrayed like this. As a parent it is your job to provide. Don't be a grinch!

I agree. Having children is a choice and with that choice comes responsibility (e.g. feeding them). If you ask your kids to be oh-so-thankful that you provided them the basics like food, heat and water, that's not being a good parent...unless of course, your kids are 25+ years old and still living at home... ;-)

I really like that he's sticking up for kids. Think how sad it is that there ARE in fact many kids for whom basic necessities are a gift. This meme is either heartless and cynic or totally oblivious to the fact that childhood poverty is an everyday occurrence even in rich countries. Sure, it's just a meme, but really quite tasteless.

I think it's meant more as 'appreciate what you have' than anything else. Plus it's meant to be funny; lighten up Francis.

Boredpanda's material is comic genius. If you are offended or want to lecture about a meme, maybe you should find other places to criticize. Or go work for an overly PC organization where they'll appreciate your moral superiority and willingness to express your righteous indignation. Merry Christmas!

All the things pictured *are* actually luxuries, and the majority of families in the world still live without electricity, indoor plumbing, manufactured food needing refrigeration, or other in-home utilities that those living in first-world countries take for granted and consider "basic" necessities.Yes, we should all feel gratitude (not to one's parents) if we live with these comforts on a daily basis. And we should feel humble, because it was sheer luck and chance that put most of us in the situation where we could enjoy these daily benefits when so many others do not. Additionally, if we own multiple pairs of shoes, sweaters, shirts, etc. we should count our blessings. If you get a headache or fever, can you go out and buy aspirin? Then you are a fortunate woman or man to have that much extra money lying around! It is wonderful for children to learn gratitude for the gifts and blessings in their lives. But parents should teach this without malice or resentment.

I can admit you have some valid points, but it's not a "majority" of families, unless you live in a third-world country. Calm it down a small bit.

You chose to have kids! This is your duty as a parent to provide these things. Plus you are also 'buying' them for yourself. Now non-essential gifts that they may have such as a tv, ps4, phone etc - slap a bow on them to remind them that you do buy stuff...but don't be that parent that's an a*s towards their kids and like "my house, I pay the bills, I earn the money blah blah blah"
