THANKSGIVING ISN'T EVEN HERE

I can't casually browse radio stations without fear of hearing those fucking synth notes from arguably the worst song of the last 30 years.

It won't be long before the Christmas season starts on December 26th.

please tell me you're talking about Wonderful Christmastime

EDIT: Including royalties from cover versions, it is estimated that Paul McCartney makes $400,000 per year from this song, which puts its cumulative earnings for this song at near $15 million [2].

Yup. Didn't want to even type the name $:-\$

I pre-emptively banned the song from our office's Pandora stations and no one is computer literate enough to reverse it

At least it's being properly called a Christmas Tree. Have you any idea how many Christmas trees in Canada are re-named "Holiday" or "Celebration" trees?

And non-denominational celebratory luminaries abound. smh, it's more offensive to pretend it's NOT a Christmas tree.

cool breeze · « **Reply #19 on:** November 17, 2011, 06:58:39 PM »

earlier today two different stations played Wonderful Christmas Time one after the other. it made me so angry.

ferrarimanf355 · « **Reply #20 on:** November 17, 2011, 06:59:50 PM »

Over at Walgreens, we got our Christmas merch before Halloween. $:-\$

They just started to play Christmas music, too. And it's the same shit over and over again, but with different artists singing. At least they played the Springsteen version of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town".

If they do play that Paul McCartney Christmas song, I'll fucking run out onto I-95 and try to get run over.

Pretty soon Christmas prep will start the day after Halloween, just watch

I don't want to hear any Christmas music until at least December 7th, although I could at least UNDERSTAND hearing it on December 1st. No excuse for mid November though, no sir. Real talk

etiolate · « **Reply #28 on:** November 18, 2011, 07:11:22 AM »

They could juice up this economy if every major retailer and radio station offered to not play that Paul McCartney shit if you bought a present every day.

OR

If you make a purchase of over 100 dollars, you get to use electrified nipple clamps on Mr McCartney himself!
