SHE REALLY CAN dress at set. We all NEED SOMEONE LIKE THAT IN OUR lives. Don’t mind THE RANDOM CAPITALIZATION BY the way, it’s to help THE VIDEO!

[@ZiriO]

Oh my gosh yes for real

[@ace_palindrome]

It’s a crime that Santa from Klaus isn’t on this list. He breaks stumps in half with his bare hands, he picks up that little twink of a mailman like he weighs as much as a couple of grapes, and he’s a widower, so like…he’s single.

[@4546Bean]

And he’s great with kids!

[@GreeeenUwU]

Honestly, T H I S He is The husband of everyone's dreams

[@amethystrose2671]

I don't get why Blake thinks he needs a hair transplant. This man has a better hairline and a more beautiful hairstyle as a 30 year old than I have as a 20 year old. Be proud of your magnificent hair, you absolute King!

As an aro ace I absolutely love watching smash or pass videos because it’s always so intriguing seeing what people want to exchange bodily fluids with

[@W3NDYLX3]

your actually so real for this

[@stilllookingforlamps5904]

YES you get it! It's like reading through a case study, it's so fascinating

[@Shimmering_cosmo]

TRUE. I’m aromantic and asexual AS WELL! I HEAR MY FRIENDS go insane over fictional characters and I ALWAYS JUST nod my head even though I CANNOT RELATE. Sorry about the random capitalization, IT IS TO HELP THE VIDEO since it has FUNDRAISERS LINKED.

THIS IS SO REAL HELP

why did you have to say it like that

[@Monkeyfish000]

A 26 minute long hear me out video purely about the universes biggest sugar daddy .... Yes please

[@macthemeh]

Genuinely SHOCKED Klaus Santa isn’t here. He was the FIRST one I thought of when I saw this video pop up.

[@MC-lm7de]

SAME (that said, he's a pass for me... I love a loyal man but I don't want to be compared to his dead wife all the time y'know?)

[@Wizardofslimes]

For some reason I feel like many many years ago an awkward tumblr teenager got into a science experiment gone wrong and split into 2 people both the same and opposite to each other: Blake Jennings and Strange Aeons.

[@sketch-eee4165]

Kinda wanna see a video of them together. Idunno what they'd do but it would sure be a lot.

[@ViralStarfish]

The quick, quiet 'if anyone from my job saw this, no you didn't' was somehow one of the funniest part of this. Honestly, it's the lightning-fast wit that makes your videos as much as anything. And, uh, yeah, your standards are questionable, but at least it's funny!

[@vixprior9733]

As an Asexual watching this was the most wild ride from start to finish and honestly I do not regret it one bit

[@dinonid1234]

I’m surprised Klaus from Klaus (2019) isn’t here, in smash. He definitely would fit in, I think.

[@tayk04]

hehehe "fit in" hehehe

Trying to dodge the furry allegations is funny when there are literally dozens of furry PFPs in your comments section but I wish you luck in 2025.

[@Shimmering_cosmo]

WATCHING THESE TYPES of videos as an asexual person is like watching A MAD SCIENTIST EXPLAIN how he is going to BRING his boyfriend back LIFE. LOVED THE video by the way! SORRY FOR THE RANDOM CAPITALIZATION by they way, it help the video since the video HAS FUNDRAISERS LINKED.

[@rodrigoportalesoliva897]

"That's why I like transitionary Santa!" Oh man, I love trans inclusive youtuber communities Okay I have to edit my comment to add this: "My type is the soft college professor" jesus fuck you have never said anything more real, my god what a beautiful archetype of man

[@Hambrack]

I like how Blake came to us, opened his heart, letting us hear every controversial opinion he has on the smashability of different Santa Clauses... and all I can think of is THAT'S 16-BIT SANTA!!!

[@CaitlinKoi]

15:18 The original red suit Santa was actually a political cartoon by Thomas Nast made in the 1860s to criticize how poorly the government treated its soldiers... Fun facts all around! The coca-cola Santa is from the 30s.

[@marsthebean13]

I was PRAYING for hot burglar Santa from glee to be on this list and was not disappointed

[@jakeblennings]

My Roman Empire is inserting glee knowledge into anything I possibly can you’re in GREAT company bestie

Coward for not including Saint Nicholas, the first Santa.

[@jakeblennings]

Wait why did my brainrot self consider every Santa but like the actual historical one.

[@forksoupp]

@@jakeblennings smash or pass???

[@8-bitkirby]

okay but would you smash luv

[@macaronsncheese9835]

Sure but as a Church Nerd TM... Unfortunately Historical/Historical-Mythologized St. Nick has gotta be a pass. Like one based on what we know about him Actual St. Nicholas would just fundamentally not be down for it in the first place, and Historical-Mythologized St. Nicholas punched a guy in the face in front of Literally Every Catholic Bishop Including The Pope because he thought that dude's Jesus Headcanons sucked (they did suck, to be fair). Like realistically you're not smashing OG Santa, you're getting a very stern lecture on waiting for marriage from a very grumpy Turkish bishop with hard opinions on theology. At best. At worst Santa foregoes the naughty list and fights you personally. On the other hand, this is the guy whose major legend involves anonymously paying the dowries of multiple young women so they could find good husbands and not be forced into prostitution, so while you're not smashing Santa you might walk away with a nice little windfall if you play your cards right.

[@McBehrer]

7:53 I knew about this from Dimension 20, Unsleeping City Season 2, but didn't realize it was a real thing

Canonizing Santa into Kingdom Hearts canonizes Jesus into Smash Bros which might canonize him into Super Mario???

Mario already wears a santa outfit in Odyssey, its already canon dear

[@noyoucantnoicantnowecantsostop]

21:46 Mario when Bowser kidnapped Luigi right the moment after he just saved Peach.

[@cshoppy19]

1:42 the absolute chokehold is 100% accurate. My friend, who I call the Gay Singularity (given that any more gayness on that guy would cause the space time continuum to collapse) November first he sent a picture of Mariah Carey with ITS TIME

[@ItsAllNunya]

Applauding for Art the Clown hes such a card and the actor is a gem of a guy.

[@Hauntedcottagecore]

You’re telling me that watching this video repeatedly pleases my neurospicy brain AND helps other people? Time to watch it 60000 times

[@McBehrer]

btw Claus doesn't have an E at the end. The only one that does is the title of the Tim Allen movie, because it's talking about a clause in a contract; the Santa Clause. It's a pun. Actual Santa (and Arthur Claus, Steve Claus, etc.) is just Claus.

[@illegalmemedealer3549]

Before I see a MILLISECOND of this video, I’m calling that Blake ranked Rise of the Guardians Santa at number 1. Talk about a polar bear, like DAMN

[@SmerkyRandomised]

Broooo, seeing Andre from Dark Souls on here took me tf out- I mean, you're not wrong And it did get more unhinged from there But still, my dude is just chilling, doesn't even have a santa hat on lollll Anyway, this video definitely needs a part 2, especially judging by the comments, keep em coming everyone-

[@PebbleTheTox]

We stan being mentally festively ill

[@Hanna-j2r]

Absolutely 😂

[@fizziestofpops]

what about klaus from the netflix movie klaus??? he's DEFINITELY your type

[@Inky_Squ1d]

Santa is the world's best and worst sugar daddy. Gives you whatever you ask for a single day, then ghosts you and goes off the grid for a year.

[@icygubler]

The dish soap spray is, shall we say, a power move (sorry?) Also, I take my immediate recognition of the Stardew Valley winter festival music as a hint that I NEED to touch grass.

[@icygubler]

Left that comment before watching the sponsor bit: real ones already knew Blake's eating habits were bad: Depression Meal Monday didn't come from a nutritionally sound place.

i am incredibly happy. new blake video and 2 litres of dr pepper and my bed after a week of choir shows

So this is what they meant by donning the gay apparel

[@seriousbisons]

So I may or may not be built like Santa and I may or may not be in that “becoming Santa” phase because I’m currently going grey at 32, but hiiiii

[@aralkthewizard]

You’re SO RIGHT for hating on polar express it is the worst movie I have ever seen, I get that some people like it because of the nostalgia but it is absolutely nonsensical and awful

15:13 nope! It's actually an illustration from a political drawing that was included in the original "The Night Before Christmas"

[@SethRobins189]

I love all these videos but my favorite quote that I will forever spam my friends with is the Zelda short with Sidon where he said "this man can say whatever he wants as long as it's to /me/ at a wedding alter." YOURE SO REAL FOR THAT T^T WHY DO I FIND THE BUFF FISH MAN HOT

[@generaalbamihap]

Really appreciate videos like this. Silly and fun, makes me forget real life for a sec

"I have watched all six seasons of Glee from start to finish three times over" the least surprising sentence to ever come out of your mouth, Blake

Haven’t watched it, but if Regular Show’s Santa isn’t on here then you’ve missed OUT

[@Gender_Oobleck]

Why was my answer pass to all of them- I’M PAN WTF And yes I did watch the video (sped it up, skipped some parts, etc.)

[@McBehrer]

damn I'm Ace and even I didn't pass all of them (now granted I am fairly straight-leaning, so there weren't very many, but I can still at least recognize quality when I see it)

[@cloudriilejion4589]

I also passed everyone. (I may be a raging lesbian though so that? says nothing.)

[@CRandyGamble]

Yeah, Rise of the Guardians Santa is absolutely a smash and the first hot Santa I thought of. I always top but I'd try something new for him, LORD. And heavy set Santa with huge arms is basically my workout goals. I'll call you when I get there.

Blake is always really funny, this was a good video

[@aquamarinerose5405]

Granted, I think the point of the Polar Express is that he's struggling to tell if literally any of this is real or if it's some dream or hallucination he's having. He keeps thinking that he's going to wake up in his bed at literally any moment. Yet... It was only after he finally, literally FORCES himself to believe that he can hear the bell, and then only AFTER he starts to believe does he get to see the big man himself.
