Free For All Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 The most recent one for me is those obnoxious TV ads where they rewrite the lyrics to holiday tunes (to move product). I think Best Buy is the worst offender, but many others have jumped on this evil bandwagon. Happy Holidays everyone! Quote
Jazzmoose Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 Anything involving The Little Drummer Boy. Can you imagine, after all the hassle of finding a place to stay, ending up with a bunch of animals in a barn, you finally get the baby to sleep, and here's this bozo out beating on his drum, acting like he's doing you a favor...

kinuta Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 None. Luckily Xmas doesn't exist in ' pagan' Japan. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 None. Luckily Xmas doesn't exist in ' pagan' Japan. Now that's interesting. Christmas does exist in Moslem Senegal. MG Quote
jazzbo Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 Xmas musak and music everywhere. Ugh. Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 Xmas musak and music everywhere. Ugh. If only it was the Eddie Higgins 'Christmas Songs' playing in those lobbies/elevators! Quote
carnivore Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 Rudolph the Red Nosed F*ck*ng Reindeer followed by Frosty the S*dd*ng Snowman everywhere you go. Quote
papsrus Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 Full-page newspaper ads showing otherwise seemingly attractive women wearing white Santa beards. The stuff of nightmares. Quote
Brad Posted December 18, 2009 Report Posted December 18, 2009 (edited) Rudolph the Red Nosed F*ck*ng Reindeer followed by Frosty the S*dd*ng Snowman everywhere you go. Aw, c'mon, who doesn't love Rudolph: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Py0dsLH9Zck Edited December 18, 2009 by Brad Quote

Van Basten II Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 Bad ads, bad music, bad office parties Quote
Noj Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 Mellow out the holiday beef with some humor. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 I think we've already had this discussion, but the worst Christmas tune of all time is the one by Paul McCartney. Thankfully, I've only heard it once so far this year. Amazing. Quote
sidewinder Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 Rudolph the Red Nosed F*ck*ng Reindeer followed by Frosty the S*dd*ng Snowman everywhere you go. I remember being bombarded with those two guys years ago shopping in sunny and warm Orlando, Florida over Xmas and it was surreal ! Rudolph was neutered though.. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 I don't usually have one but this year, some fucking dog has shat on our front lawn and it's freezing. The turd has frozen to the lawn and the ground's so hard that, even if I could get it off the grass, I couldn't dig a hole under the hedge to bury it. So, until the weather warms up, we have to put up with the sight of a turd on the lawn. MG Quote

Their poo smells about 100 times worse than a dog.. Edited December 19, 2009 by sidewinder Quote

Matthew Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 It's the continuous Christmas music that sets my teeth on edge, jeesh, I absolutely cannot stand "holiday music" in any manner. The words to 99% of it is on the level crap that is frozen to MG's front lawn. Awful, awful,awful. Christmas is by far my least favorite holiday season. The day itself, and what it stands for religiously is great, but the circus that surrounds it -- Bah, humbug! Quote
sonnymax Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 My beef is with the frustrated Mom in the store who loudly announces to her dawdling kid, "Well then, I'm just going to leave you here." You should see the looks I get when I reply, "Okay, I'll take him." Quote
DukeCity Posted December 19, 2009 Report Posted December 19, 2009 (edited) I don't really have a beef, but the title of the thread made me think of: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofadaevDY9w Back when Jay and Dave were still buddies... Edited December 19, 2009 by DukeCity Quote

He was going to say his holiday beef was a ribbon tied around his penis, but thank goodness he thought better of that. Quote
