:headbang: Just make the hurting stop!

It's either God doing it to punish people for forgetting what Christmas was supposed to be about, or the pagan Gods to punish people for stealing their ceremony. Either way, earplugs look like a sound investment.

Homeless people give you a smile
While drinking bourbon all the while
They'll drink themselves until they rot
Merry Christmas to you lot

Gideons pass out colored books
While receiving contempted looks
They look up at Jesus and plot
Merry Christmas to you lot

In front the atheists are whining
About the winter holiday
But outside the sun is shining
Melting their icey hearts away

Jews cry in their kosher corner
Everyone one a saddened morner
They count the souls that they bought
Merry Christmas to you lot

And that's all I feel like writing right now.

Always puts me in the holiday spirit:

Sort of on the subject, though not entirely, I've heard rumors of various rock/metal Christmas album releases! Amoung them are Metallica, Twisted Sister, & Billy Idol! Has anyone else heard this? Are there any you've heard, that I've missed? Just curious!

I hate christmas songs too. why does the season have to start earlier every year? why?

Just heard a country singer attempt "Ave Maria." Someone please shoot me now!

I get my warm seasonal feelings from: Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer (http://www.the-north-pole.com/carols/grandma.html).

a country singer attempting any song makes my ears hurt.

1) change your radio station. there is no excuse for playing something like that.

2) pick one day and one day only to do all your christmas shopping. dont go to the mall, department store or discount store except for this one day. this way you get only one dose of sappy musak xmas carols.

3) if you watch tv, keep an eye out for the christmas specials (they have more of them in the next 2 weeks than they do closer to christmas) and the christmas episodes of your favorite shows. avoid them. do you really want to see the law and order guys meeting the ghost of christmas past or the ghost whisperer trying to kill herself and getting rescued by her guardian angel? i didnt think so


the key to surviving the christmas music season is good planning. dont let pokry pig's blue christmas happen to YOU. (again)

A taste of christmas came out last year with various shitty nu metal bands doing xmas song so I suppose its possible.

Two radio stations (104.5 and 102.9) are already playing Christmas music 24/7 here.

There are a few good ones out there. For instance, here's wishing you a Patrick Swayze Christmas.

wow, not only playing christmas music, but also not playing anything else? wow thats bad.

Well what happened was that about 2-3 years ago 104.5 was going through changes, management etc. So to fill the time between the old system to the new one, they played Christmas music 24/7. Apparently it was a huge hit and they started doing it every year. Pretty soon 102.9 started doing it too.

Some of the managers are playing Xmas music. So depending on which manager is on, I may have to suffer through it at work.

Suprisingly enough, my sister (who typically brings out the Xmas songs mid June when Sleep Country does their Xmas in July commercials) has yet to utter a single jingle. It is delightful.

She's just luring you into a false sense of security.

Firstly, its Christmas. Fuck every politically correct meddler, outraged immigrant and misguided campaigner who contends otherwise.

But secondly, it is a little annoying no? I object to Cliff Richard at any time of year, but at Christmas he becomes intolerable.;)

What is wrong with calling it Yule ?

cant you tell human resources that you are a satanist and claim that christmas music creates a hostile working environment?

not christamas season yet. or at least it souldn't be christmas season yet.

OH I WISHH ITT COULD BE CHRISTMASSS, EVERY DAYYYYYEEAYYYYYY!....... *continues to sing loudly, pissing everyone off massively*

not christamas season yet. or at least it souldn't be christmas season yet.

Agreed. With the eve of december 5th approaching Saint Nicholas should now be getting all the attention, not the coca cola version of Father Christmas.

What is wrong with calling it Yule ?

Yule I can deal with since it has, I presume, an etymological root in the festival itself. It is the politically correct perversion of Christmas into X-mas, the festive season or season's greetings that I object to, given the inherent illogicality in celebrating a festival whilst denying its character.

Change the channel? turn it off? Put on your own music on your mp3 player/cd player?

Stop whining?

Metallica and TransSiberian Orchestra did a kick-ass Carol of the Bells.

Sinter Klaas!

I'm shocked to hear that Metallica actually did something that wasn't mind-numbingly boring. Of course, they also had the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, which rocks.

Sinter Klaas!

Oh, he's good, but Sanity Clause is still my favorite... Though some say they never heard of no Sanity Clause.

That is a kickass Carol of the Bells!

Now it feels like the very first time,
cuz it's going to be the very first time,
that Christmas feels right to me.
Cuz I know that I'm looking good
Just like a real girl should-
It's my first Christmas as a woman

More punk bands should make Christmas albums. I know I'll be playing Oi! to the World more than once this season :)

Yeah, it was pretty damn good! I just made it my holiday priority (and duty) to piss Lars off; I downloaded it!!! :D

I get my warm seasonal feelings from: Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer (http://www.the-north-pole.com/carols/grandma.html).Way back when I first heard it we gave my grandmother a copy of it. She loved it.

Ahh, cutting yourself off from all forms of media other than NS never felt so good. *sighs happily*

Yeah Ladame, except how many threads are there on Christmas now? How many will there be? Too many!

I'm already sick of it. I watched some TV last night at a friend's house. God damn, I hate "The Holidays." Wasn't even Thanksgiving and they were advertising Christmas. Here, get a diamond ring for your wife for X-Mas! Show her that you approve of blood and war in Africa so she can have a "best friend!" What Would Jesus Do? SELL!

I like the metal version of "Carol of the Bells". That is teh pwn. :cool:

So they were the ones that did that! I love it!

There should be more Christmas song parodies.

"...Walkin' 'round in women's underwear......." :D

yup they did

Yes, but NS is Christmas bashing, whereas everywhere else is "Oh we're SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy! Isn't the world just great? 'Tis the season to be joly, etc." :headbang:

I'm not going to pretend Christmas doesn't exist, but given the choice between Christmas carols and Christmas bashing, I'll pick the latter.

Well yeah. I'd rather just not have to deal with it either way. Ranting against it and the commercialization involved makes me feel like some sort of anti-capitalist, but I'm not - I just have a sense of taste.
