Every December, I turn into that person who romanticizes everything: the lights, the cozy drinks, the chaotic energy, all of it. And obviously, Christmas photos demand captions that don’t feel like they were copied and pasted from Pinterest in 2014. If you’re posting with family, your partner, your dog, or just showing off a cute holiday outfit, here are some funny Christmas captions that you’ll actually want to use.
