Even Santa Is Impressed by These Guys' Pop Culture Christmas Costumes

Two friends from the Seattle area have made a hilarious tradition out of visiting their local mall and taking photos with Santa Claus. While we don't know how old they are, let's just say that they're probably more mature than Santa's target audience. While things started out pretty casual in 2006, it wasn't long before they got the idea to incorporate costumes — they spoofed the classic SNL skit "D*ck in a Box" in 2009, and by 2013 they'd gone full blown Breaking Bad.

The series of funny photos began to go viral this week after Imgur user mattxcf posted them to his account, though they first gained traction about three years ago via Reddit. The original poster wrote, "Some friends of mine take a photo with Santa every Christmas. They've gotten better each year." He wasn't kidding. See how they commemorated their 2015 photo when you scroll through now.
