Maine urinating Santa po'd locals: ISIS Christmas holiday display 'wet' interest
The nineties are alive in Portland, Oregon, but the naughties thrive Portland, Maine (or in nearby Limerick, at least). Limerick, Maine residents are po'd by a urinating Santa holiday display, reported the Associated Press on Dec. 14.

It almost looked like Father Christmas was showering blessings, not bodily fluids on ISIS. You could say the Maine ISIS Christmas shower show "wet" curiosity, (That's right, keep groaning, the jokes will only get soggier!)
