Anyone else agree: Xmas music makes you wanna blow your brains out?

[bif]

I hate this shit!

[silverojo]

1. I totally agree! n/t

[Mendocino]

2. If I hear Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer

or Jingle Bell Rock again, I just might.

3. I work retail,

try having it played for 10 to 12 hours a day. By the end of my shift I'm so ready to get the gun. Plus I have to play nice with all the crazy customers! I getting to the point that I just hate the whole season!

[Kutjara]

4. It actually makes me want to blow other people's brains out.

Specifically, the sadistic motherfuckers who recorded the crap.

5. O.M.G.

you made me spit up

[chknltl]

6. hmmmm... do they play it at the White House????

....well I can hope can't I?

[OllieLotte]

7. A little bit is fine. A month of the same crap, is too much. n/t

[Dirty Hippie]

8. They even play it at my favorite Chinese Restaurant - agh! n/t

[DeeDeeNY]

9. I have walked out of stores because I could not stand it anymore

If only retailers realized that this turns people off! Maybe a week or two before Christmas, but around here
they were starting well before Thanksgiving.

[LostinVA]

10. I'm a total heathen, but I love it

[kedrys]

11. Same here

Or it makes me wanna get on a crowded bus and kill everybody. I *loathe* that shit.

And the crappy thing about it is that it's pervasive, almost subliminal. I went to the grocery store without my iPod last week, and I couldn't get out of there fast enough.

12. Try some of these...

All are MP3 files, ranging in size from 564k to 2.4 Mb.

Jeff Foxworthy's Redneck 12 Days of Christmas

If Bette Davis sang Feliz Navidad

O Come All Ye Faithful (Slim Spincter)

Santa Wants Some Lovin'

Steve Martin and Paul Simon doing Silver Bells

The Restroom Door Said

Walkin' Round in Women's Underwear

What's It To Ya

White Christmas by the Jingle Cats

[GalleryGod]

13. Sorry for you,

I Love it.

[hfojvt]

14. I hope it depends on the song

because I am going to be playing Christmas music live in front of Wal-mart in a few hours.

Some of it is the over-kill I think. "It's beginning to look alot like Christmas" is okay the first two times you hear it, but after the tenth time in a week it is way too much. The worst thing is the ear-worms. Three hours later I will be singing "jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock...." I despise that song, but it is harder to get it out of your head than it is to get gum out of your hair.
