"I think the issue here is "appropriateness"."

I thought the issue was What Sets You Off?

• Love ya Bot!

Party Poopers.
My wife had a company Christmas party at the Pub she works for. The owner asked us to put on some music. After scanning the very mixed and diverse crowd we chose the Brain Setzer Christmas album, figuring it was the best bet at pleasing the majority of people there, and maintaining both a Christmas, and party themed environment. Approximately 4 songs into the CD a wool sweatered Birkenstock wearing frizzy haired lady in her mid fifties got up from her table in the corner where others of similar attire were seated, and obviously not mingling with the rest of the crowd, approached the bar where I was working on a very expensive bottle of single malt(open bar!!) and said to those of us who were obviously having a good time,,

"can we put some nice music on?"

The owner, who appears to shop at the same clothing store quickly obliged the disgruntled complainant and allowed the woman to put on a CD of her choice. All of the sudden soothing waves of solo accoustic New Age guitar music filled the Pub. The friends at the corner table smiled and congratulated the woman as she returned to her seat. I finished my Scotch.
The party ended shortly after.
