All I want for Christmas is a neg rep button. Sweet Elvis almighty that picture was bad.

 

Little Naszir was being urged by granny to give a Christmas speech. So he did the whuppin vs. freedom math and dropped this bomb on the congregation.

"Santa Devouring An Elf" by Jim'll Paint It

 

This seems useful.

 

Worked in the friendly neighborhood coffeeshop for three hours yesterday. Heard four different versions of that song (including a gay one!). Mercifully, I was spared Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You."

 

Was the gay one the version from Glee?

 

I don't think so because, IIRC, one of the singers from the coffeehouse was a baritone.

And given how many versions of "Santa Baby" I've heard this year, I'm surprised I haven't heard a gay version of that one yet.

 

My favorite version is one done by a single singer so it plays as an internal debate.

My store has moved from standards towards original Christmas music and even though a lot of it is country it's a welcome change.

 

I'm actually pretty sick of the contemporary Christmas music by now.

Though the baristas are having a tougher time of it. Alas for them, the coffeehouse is in a remodeled old house, and the owners live right upstairs. They're under orders.

 

It may be uncomfortable, but I have a hard time thinking that any sensible parish would turn down an agnostic/atheist caroler.

Next time someone reminds you that Die Hard is a Christmas movie:

 

Our Christmas book tree.



It is weird, though. It's killed conversation. We've had our two parties, yesterday and this evening, and it's a hit. Everyone loves it, but everyone is standing around, peering at the book titles. These books that have been in the living room, the den and the guest room. For the past 30 years...

 

Yeah, but this puts it front and center. And I get why people want to study it.

It's one of the things I don't like about the move from books to readers and DVDs to streaming. I have a large number of the old fashioned media, and they serve as a display of what I am and in the event I get any visitors they can figure me out that way. When everything is privately held in the ether you can't study them, or at least their public, aspirational selves.
