It’s less than a month until Christmas Eve and the days are ticking away until one particularly awesome old guy’s busiest day of the year!   We are of course talking about Santa Claus!

He has the unenviable task of delivering millions of presents to children all around the world in just one night.  Luckily, Old Guys Rule is here to offer a wide range of gifts for the slightly older “kids” in your family!! So whether you are looking for gifts for Dad, Granddad or other old guys that rule this Christmas be sure to check out our wide range of funny t-shirts and accessories.  Here are some of our favourite Santa Claus and Christmas quotes:

“Santa Claus has the right idea. Visit people once a year.”
Victor Borge

“I once bought my kids a set of batteries for Christmas with a note on it saying, toys not included.”
Bernard Manning.

“Anyone who believes that men are the equal of women has never seen a man trying to wrap a Christmas present”.

“Why is Christmas just like a day at the office? You do all the work and the fat guy with the suit gets all the credit”.

“Santa is very jolly because he knows where all the bad girls live”.
Dennis Miller

“There are three stages of man: he believes in Santa Claus; he does not believe in Santa Claus; he is Santa Claus”.
Bob Phillips

“Christmas at my house is always at least six or seven times more pleasant than anywhere else.  We start drinking early.  And while everyone is seeing only one Santa Claus, we’ll be seeing six or seven”

W.C Fields
