This Viral Video Of Boy Loving His Toilet Paper Xmas Gift Is A Holiday Lesson

Let's be real, having to act grateful when you get a miserable Christmas gift is a tightrope act. In my opinion, if you pull it off, you deserve a million Oscars.

Then, there are those angelic souls who actually like mediocre gifts. These are truly the Mother Teresas out there, the kind of sweet souls that would accept a pair of socks and weep openly, praising the heavens above for the newly clothed feet.

Finally, there's this boy in the video above who received toilet paper for Christmas and has never been more excited in his life.

This child's response to receiving an implement with which to wipe his tush? "Thank you."

This kid seriously makes Oliver Twist seem like a spoiled British brat.

"Please sir can I have some more?"

"Sure, Oliver, but this kid was happy with some toilet paper."

"Oh, never mind."

And this boy is definitely the most ecstatic when his dad opens up his mighty present for him. I guess you can consider this video to be an unboxing video?

Naturally, he wastes zero time in getting this toilet paper exactly where it belongs...

...the toilet. That's right, he goes to the hole...

...AND SLAMS IT ON HOME. AND THE CROWD GOES WILD.

So, if you have children who are griping because you got them an Xbox One instead of PS4, show them this video, take that Xbox One, break it over your knee and hand them this:

Then, scream, "ARE YOU HAPPY NOW, UNGRATEFUL SPAWN OF MY LOINS?"

OK, that might be a little strongly worded. Maybe just stick with "ungrateful offspring of my nether-region?"

All in all, I'll be practicing this kid's response when my extended family gives me that sweater I really don't need since I live out in Los Angeles.
