Japanese and Christmas

Why do the Japanese hate Christmas?

Because the last time a Fat Man came down the chimney, they lost half their population.

Explanation

This is a dark joke that plays on the stereotype of Santa Claus as a "fat man" and uses this to reference the atomic bombing of Japan during World War II, where "Fat Man" was the codename for the bomb dropped on Nagasaki. The humor comes from the unexpected juxtaposition of Christmas and a tragic historical event.
