I work in a super market, and since it's December, all the annoying Top 40 muzac has been replaced with Christmas music. And it needs to stop. Ignoring the fact that most Christmas music is just the same ten songs "re-imagined" by a million different artists, the songs are particularly infuriating. Answer me this: Why don't we listen to Christmas music in June or August or anytime that's not near Christmas? Because it's fucking awful!
And it wouldn't be so bad if radio stations/stores/everyone just threw in the occasional Christmas song to the standard mix, but they feel that they have to play Christmas music EXCLUSIVELY! And I say enough is enough. We need to stop catering to the 1% of people who actively enjoy Christmas music so much that the idea of not hearing it all fucking day is intolerable. We need to cast off our shackles, stand proud, and say, "I don't care about Rudolph, or Frosty, or Jingle Bells. I don't care who Santa's watching, or who's watching Santa kissing their mom. I am the 99%, and I am sick of Christmas music."
