Why? The 12 days of Christmas go until January 5-6 😉
That's Christian Christmas. Supply Side Christmas begins in ~~December~~ ~~November~~ ~~October~~ September and ends on December 24th.
Edit: Supply side Christmas begins in September now.
I saw Christmas chocolates in supermarkets in September.
I don't know who is fighting this "war on Christmas" but they are clearly losing.
You haven't felt true pain until you've been forced to listen to 12 Days of Christmas by The Bird and the Bee a minimum of 4 times a day
I prefer the version by The Muppets. It’s the most tolerable version I’ve come across.
I’m not clicking that link… care to explain the experience?
I’m going back to work tonight after a few days off. There better not be Christmas music playing. I work in retail, though. I think I’m screwed.
Edit: just got to work. No Christmas songs! Yay!
I'm sitting here suffering to Mariah Carey right now. TRUST ME, it's not over yet :)
Still...soon...soon.
Is watching LOTR Extended editions a Christmas tradition in your fam also?
I’m trying to convince my wife to start this tradition! Maybe one day.
We usually stick to the millennial classics + new Gen Alpha solid movies though.
Elf, Santa Clause | Arthur Christmas, This Christmas etc.
In my household the Fairytale of New York is never over
Used to feel more like the Ballad of Cuchullain. Then we got older and somewhat soberer.
Nah, it'll still be played until after the new year. I won't go into any retail establishment until then.
Was? This is not over, this is still happening, right now!
We can go back to regular music in these long, cold, and dark days. Yay?
Listening to Christmas music well into January is normal and everyone does it… right? gulp Right, guys?
No one who's ever worked retail will.
The last day of Christmas (12th day) is January 6th, so yes. Also known as Epiphany or Three Kings Day.
Oh you sweet summer child! 🥲
Who hurt you?
Christmas music. My ears, specifically.
