What in the ####### #### is ####### wrong with people?

They've turned on the Christmas music here at work. I can deal with some Christmas music, but more like when it's December, not the ############# second week of November.

surprised when you are one. "Why are you such a grinch lakebum?!?"....Oh, it probably has a lot to do with you ######## starting this annoying music/movies/decorations 3 months before Christmas. I think these are the same people who like to say it's their birthday month.
Here's the other fact about Christmas music....To men like myself, it signifies a season in which I'll be doing very little of what I want to do. I'll be forced to interact with people I don't particularly care for, and who I have nothing to do with otherwise the rest of the year. We'll have to go sit and listen to how great such and such's lives are despite the fact that they're in their 30's living above their parents garage, and get life lessons from a ###### who pins you in a corner and hands out sage wisdom like "don't go into credit card debt".
#### fall, #### the holidays, #### all of it

rent. There would be no Christmas, Valentines, and all those other gift/Hallmark Card-sustaining days. Doubt birthdays would even be acknowledged other than maybe getting a beer bought for you at the bar.
Holidays would be: 1) First Saturday of Football season (high holy day) 2) Super Bowl WEEK. Everything shuts down for the whole week. 3) Opening Day/Masters week. Everything shuts down part 2. 4) Thanksgiving would be held once per month instead of once per year 5) Drinking days like St Pats, Cinco de Mayo, etc would still be held in high regard 6) we'd still do 4th of July because GRILLING.

I'm onboard with it. ####, I'll start decorating as soon as it starts getting warm in the spring. However, as it stands it's cold and miserable, with a bleak outlook for the next 5-6 weeks. I really cannot figure out why people like the fall other than football.

Let's not let the true meaning of the season get lost here.

Christmas is the natural transition between football drinking and full-on winter drinking. Without the Christmas season, people don't get conditioned for the increased winter alcohol intake, and then they make mistakes.
We don't need more mistakes people...we need LESS mistakes.
So let's suffer the inane music, the stupid epilepsy-inducing decorations, and drink like our very lives depend on it.
BECAUSE THEY DO.

When I was growing up it was after Thanksgiving, and I thought that was pushing things.
I have zero doubt when I'm playing with my dentures and talking to myself in a nursing home in 40 years, Christmas will start after July 4th.
