It's more of a mystery than a nightmare

This next thrift store nightmare is more of a mysterious tragedy than anything. What I find when I go thrift store shopping is a ton of holiday decorations some of the religious persuasion. When I find these, they always have one of two things wrong with them.

1. They always have a broken wise man. Whether it be a broken hand or missing head, something is always broken about one of them.

Or mostly this is found...



2. The missing baby Jesus.

Come on, people! What is the point of buying this structure if the centerpiece is missing!? Who on earth steals baby Jesus? Does the person selling this just assume that you can pull a miniature baby out of thin air? A baby Jesus is supposed to be sacred and unique! Surely one cannot replace it with a simple baby Barbie! Or can they?
