The Law of Conservation of Presents

The boy came home from school today to discover that his sister had received a gift from the other girl in her dance class. He turned to the Wife and said, “Mom, I think Santa has a rule about the number of gifts that you get. The more you receive before Christmas, the less you get on Christmas day.”

Subtle.

The Wife replied “Well, I guess after all the hockey gear you received, you won’t be getting much on Christmas…”

“NO. I mean, I didn’t mean that my sister should get less presents… I was just was thinking…” He trailed off into something unintelligible at that point.
