I think it may be coming up on Xmas in the Wapsi calendar just like ours...

I think you're right.

I'm old and un-hip-enough to have so little familiarity with anime that I can't even begin to guess which two anime characters they are referring to. Presumably one is thoughtless and the other is needlessly loud or is prone to anguished self-criticism. Any suggestions as to who these are, or what their Attributes are?

(I'm also old enough that "they" for Santa is a bit jarring. I wish spoken English had a unique word for third-person-animate-gender-neutral, as opposed to third-person-animate-plural (and third-person-inanimate-plural as well). Lumping all of these into "they" is so imprecise... )

You would have to narrow it down to a year to find out which annoying anime girl they are talking about, and even then most years would have multiple candidates.
I'm partial to Lum, and the extended cast of Urusei Yatsura for my candidates, but there are those who would find candidates in Macross.
