So true. I basically avoid going out from Halloween until after New Year’s so that I won’t get Xmas music stuck in my head. My wife, raised in a Jewish household, used to cry over this as a child. Plus she uses Xian curses without even thinking about it (as do I, despite my atheistic orientation). If there really were a “war on Xmas” I would sign up right away!
Does the graveyard shift count? I was hired as night crew during the Christmas season this time last year and dismissed as soon as the Christmas overload dispersed.
Start of my new Christmas song. “Christmas people always got two trees, ornaments domestic, and ones from overseas. They’re outside grinnin’ when it starts to freeeeze. Stand back buddy, it’s a communicable disease.”
JC’s brand is cheapened more by the incessant jingling of sleigh bells on the radio than by the occasional gentle jibe about his career and ancestry. And that’s me talking as an atheist of the Dawkins mold.

They don’t have the guts to play Fairytale of New York.
I can understand being tired of Christmas music. But “some carpenter’s birthday”?
Way to piss off an enormous part of your audience.
Look, he’s done strips about hitler before. If anything, the audience is eating it up!

Christmas music should be played only after thanks giving at the soonest. But comedic songs are ok outside of this limits.
