“Who doesn’t like Little Drummer Boy?”

Here’s a thread about it from last year. In post #3 I noted some people hated this song. By post #5 the first “hater” showed up. This happens again and again. It’s so familiar that I jump in early when I see the thread because I find the hatred of the song kind of funny.

Is that an Australian Christmas Carol?

Two versions of “Oi to the World”. One by The Vandals and the other by No Doubt.

When she uses unpack I fantasize about ripping out her vocal cords.<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

When I have to attend my company’s H.R. seminars against discrimination in the workplace, I fantasize about hiring a handicapped person with Tourette Syndrome causing them to break out in loud profanity and farting in the middle of the presentation.

This would be a valuable employee to have at my side in some of the other meetings I attend as well.

I’ve always liked it. Maybe I always liked what it reminded me of. That was a good time in my life.

Oh well, everyone has their favorites.

And I hated it from the first time I heard it. Mainly for the lyrics, but I also found the tune annoying.

Well, as you say, everyone has their favorites, and taste isn’t a moral issue.

Merry Christmas

“All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, so I can wish you Merry Chrifthmas.” Or however a kid with a lisp would say Christmas.

As long as we keep ‘Walking’ Round in Womans Underwear’ I’ll be happy.

That, and "Chipmunks Roasting on an Open Fire". I would add any version of "Twelve Days of Christmas" other than the Relient K version - they slog through it in around 4 minutes flat, with bonus lyrics added in.

I can’t stand the one that mentions “Parson Brown”. What an idiotic premise involving that line.

You don't like "Walking in a Winter Wonderland"? I thought that was the Canadian national anthem.

Really, anyone who didn't realize that George Michael was gay then really needed to get their Gaydar readjusted.

For the longest time, I didn't realize that George Michael was gay, and then one day, wham!

I’ll give you #’s 1, 3, 4, and 5....but #2, ‘Mary, Did You Know?’ has just a wee bit to do with that subject.”

And a wee bit is correct. But a wee bit of anything doesn’t classify it as a Christmas Carol.

Lyrics:

http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/mark_lowry/mary_did_you_know.html

According to the Catholic Church and the Church of Christ, she was told of the imminent birth. But as to the capacity of the Christ, she couldn’t fathom. She was told, according to both religious entries I found, that she was going to give birth but only what was going on. Not what will go on. So the lyric above which tell of the unforeseen happenings is great for a Monday morning quarterback. But she didn’t know. And according to the Church of Christ entry, she didn’t treat him like the king of kings, just a newborn baby boy as that is what she did know.
