Something that really gets my candy cane print flannel boxers in a bunch: New words to classic Christmas tunes in ads or hilarious holiday reviews.

The ads are just full on wrong. If you want to sell me on your amazing one stop shopping aspects write your own damned song, don't rape a public domain one that we all know well.

The idea of a Christmas tune refit with hee-larry-ass timely political lyrics or rewritten to cleverly go on about how Christmas is actually a big pain in the ass is completely tired and worn out. If anyone suggests it to you for your Big Holiday Showstravaganza they should have the nearest heavy object thrown at them with extreme prejudice. Then kick them out of the chorus.

There of course has to be an exception for National Public Radio as they would lose most of their humorous holiday content should they not be allowed to make smug wink-wink Christmas song parodies. This could lead to a loss of pledges which would mean NPR peoples would have to go and get actual jobs.
