See, it's funny because oxygen has a high electronegativity, meaning it'll 'steal' electrons from other atoms easily.
Santa has promised those 'stealing' elements coal in their stocking, but oxygen wouldn't mind that because coal oxidizes just fine releasing a bunch of energy in the process.
Somehow the personification of oxygen as a seemingly mischievous little red-headed girl seems appropriate.
Thanks, again, to @difluorine for creating and sharing this cartoon.
