While several netizens liked it, some others criticised the wastage of paper. An Instagram user commented, “Wow, so many crabby people about this!! So fun and innocent! Nice work.” Another user wrote, “The same paper would have been used to wrap a gift, unwrapped, and then trashed/recycled anyway. Y’all have to chill and let people have fun.” A third user commented, “That’s commitment!”

Spreading cheer online, several videos Christmas-related have been grabbing attention. A man dressed as the fictional character The Grinch was seen inside a three-wheeled motorcycle and clapping his hands in a video. The man, clad in Santa Claus’s red suit, sparked curiosity online as the green pot-bellied character is known for his despise for Christmas.
