1. I haven't really heard much of it yet
I dig Motown Christmas carols, Burl Ives, Julie Andrews, The Chieftains, etc.

Not to mention Swiss Colony Beef Log from the SOUTH PARK Christmas CD.

2. Ugh.
There's a local golden oldies station that switched to 24 hour Xmas music on Halloween.

Hallo fucking ween!

5. Why don't we just celebrate year round?
It makes me wanna puke. This is why I like Thanksgiving so much. No fucking gifts!

3. It's even infiltrated my cable channel guide.
No more Hawaiian music 'til after New Year's, I guess. :(

7. I work at magazine kiosk in a mall.
I get it for a minimum of 9 hours a day. 6 days a week.

Oh, plus there is a music stage 20 feet behind me, where they bring in a never ending procession of every crappy middle school choir/band in the entire metro area.

Fuck Xmas music. Fuck it hard and fuck it long.

8. The worst is the music played in stores that cater....
to women and teen girls. Lots of over-wrought, over-the-top emoting, basically using x-mas music as a prop. Ick. Makes me appreciate, "Jingle Bell Rock."

(Hi, Homie! :hi:)

9. At work, I'm trapped in it!
Every year, just about after Thanksgiving...the secretaries in the "front office' break out the same very worn Christmas CD's. Of course, they assume we all dig it.

We just have too good a working relationship (the rest of the year) for me to tell them to turn the f ' ing XMAS music off!!!!!

So I take a few deep breaths and try to distract myself (with work) - probably the only time of the year I prefer work to listening to music. Why do some people assume we are all into Christmas anyway????
