AAARRRGGGHH!!!

[CALVINIST]

It's not even thanksgiving, and there is already that yucky Christmas music playing on the radio!!! Doesn't it get sickening enough playing that dump AFTER thanksgiving and having to put up with it till January?

Don't get me wrong, I love the Lord, I just hate that sickening music that has nothing to do with Him at all!

What's next, Are they going to start rolling out the Christmas tunes right after Lobor Day?

[Blaze]

Amen. I chewed out a kid at Caribou coffee when he tried peddling a Candy-cane muffin and EggNog Latte around November 1st. I insisted "It's not even THANKSGIVING!! Give it a break!"

I've told a number of people that I could run for president simply on a platform that I will mandate no Christmas specials or Christmas music til the day after Thanksgiving, and I would probably win.

I absolutely love Christmas, just not in October. It waters down the true season IMO.

Christmas Season should not start till after Thanksgiving and end onthe first of the year. Month and a half is plenty.

I work retail, so I get to listen to it 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. How do you think I feel? where's my fishing rod?

Look at it this way,once you hear the xmas carols,fire up that auger!!! Its time!!

[Ryan_V]

sorry, have to disagree on this one, I love listening to xmas music and in fact listen to it a few times during the year also!!

[Mankato-Ice-Man]

I agree with Ryan, I listen to the music year around. Cant go a whole year w/o hearing ole Hank Jr singing Little Drummer Boy.... par rump pa pummm .... but ya, the retail stuff could be WAY cranked back, how ever, on the flip side, I tend to start watching sales and stuff in Sept in a quest to spread out the expense, avoid crowds and be wrapping presents when 98% of the other folks are out buying thiers.

[zamboni]

Bob Segers Little Drummer Boy was good, too. A few of you already know this, but I used to live in Kansas City, and there are 2 FM stations there that play X-Mas music from November on.

I love the Xmas music all that means to me is re string fishing lines, go buy some new lures, organize my ice box get the portabl out. best time of the year.

[Snake River King]

Yep I think the Christmas season get like a week earlier every year, I bet 20 years from now the christmas decorations will be out in september

[JigginIsLife]

just wish the ice came as soon as the xmas songs did!!!!

I'm with the majority. My kids who are 3 and 6 know the rules. No Christmas music or decorations until after Thanksgiving. Each holiday should have it's own time. Thanksgiving is like the middle child. It just gets forgotten.

Merry Christmas

This is just one more reason why I have Sirius radio in both of my vehicles. They have three channels of nothing but christmas music but I couldn't tell you which ones they are.

[hoggs222]

I used to hate this time of year because no Kool 108. But now, Kool 108 kinda sucks, so....whatever.

[Grant Pearson]

The grocery store that I work at had x-mas stuff out before Halloween had even passed! I saw that and had to go puke. It's bad enough if it's out before thanksgiving, but before Halloween? What's next? x-mas before the 4th?
