Now that Santa Claus’s Naughty / Nice List has been leaked by hackers, pretty much anyone and everyone with an Internet connection is clamoring to see where they fall on the list.

Here are ways to get on the Nice list:


• Adding Anti-virus to your devices — or gifting it to a friend who could use some online security.

• Answering your mom’s barrage of phone calls to assure her that you aren’t dead, are just having a busy day at work, and that yes — you have finally enrolled in health and dental insurance at your new job.

• Being patient with your grandpa when he asks to check out your “newfangled dating applications” and begins swiping right with reckless abandon.

• Belting out your favorite Christmas carol at the top of your lungs…while on a crowded train or bus, or while in a heavily populated area. After all, sharing is caring!

• Spending an afternoon in the park with friends carrying signs that say “Free Hugs!” Sure, you might freak some people out, but you’re also bound to make a few peoples’ days!

And sure fired ways to get on the Naughty list:



• Anonymously posting mean comments on photos of a celebrity’s new haircut just because you’re jealous your bangs will probably never, ever be as on fleek as hers.

• Stealing intellectual property, like your friend Hank’s blueprints for the first ever teleportation device, and then claiming it as your own before he has a chance to patent the invention.

• Leaving a “healthy snack” for Santa instead of the standard cookies and milk. Nobody needs to be the victim of body shaming — especially not Santa!

• Hacking into another person’s devices. That’s not cool at all.

• Going on a few dates with a person, then vanishing completely without explanation because you’re allergic to awkwardness. (The kids these days call this “ghosting.”)
