As long as it has flashing lights, i could go along with that.
Oh get that off my lawn!
The thing is that really bad shit happens on that day just like it does every other day. There is nothing quite like being reminded of the worst monents of your life at every turn for months a year. It just can’t be avoided. Fuck Christmas saturation.
For your listening pleasure: Miles Davis Band - Blue Xmas (To Whom It May Concern)
Well, fuck me
I’d love to hear actual Christmas carols, this time of year. By all means, come sing “O Come Emmanuel” or “Hark the Herald Angels Sing” outside my window. What I get real tired of is all that “Here Comes Santa Claus” and “Lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you” seasonal crap.
Did you know the lyrics of “O Little Town of Bethlehem” and “It Came Upon A Midnight Clear” can be sung to each other’s tunes? (Wouldn’t surprise me if you did, since you’re a choir geek.) That would be my request.
Another anti-Christmas video for your pleasure, Typo! Enjoy!
(If you’re really hardcore anti-Christmas, here’s the version with the original Swedish lyrics. It’s much better, because, you know, Swedish!)
Oh, and Good Yule!!!
Fuck Christmas for taking place on MY birthday (and I bet Jesus would agreed, even though December 25th was not his birth date)
Working retail during the holidays can turn anyone into a bitter, anti-Christmas ranter. The music alone, playing for hours, nonstop…
I once worked 13 days in a row in December at a grocery store, and it may have been worse than doing L7s in the Arabian Sea. In summer.
:(
No-one knows who they were or what they were doing. But their legacy remains, hewn into the living rock of Stonehenge.

This, this, oh fuck yes this. Nine hours a day of “Christmas Hits of 1953!” Fuck Bing Crosby, fuck Jo Stafford, fuck Angela Landsbury. Fuck “Marshmallow World”, fuck “Winter Wonderland”, fuck “We Need A Little Christmas”. Triple fuck, and damn to an eternity of hellfire, “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” and “I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas”.
But not “Mele Kalikimaka”; I kinda sorta like that one. I hate myself for that.
Thing is, there are literally a dozen holiday channels on the streaming service my store uses. One plays instrumental versions of religious carols; I’d love to here that one. Card-carrying atheist here, but “Hark, The Herald Angels Sing” and “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen” and “Silent Night” are beautiful songs. It’s the Dean Martinesque glurge that I cannot fucking stand.
Crissy as in Crissy Snow was short for Christmas. Her sister’s name Holly was short for Holiday
My last day off of work was November 23rd. It looks like my next one will be January 6th. If I’m lucky.
Fuck Christmas.
Did you know that it isn’t a real Hawaiian phrase? From Wiki:
In a way, the song mocks Hawaiians that cannot pronounce “Merry Christmas” correctly.
