Bah Bah Bleak Sheep

Just to cleanse our palates a little let's list some things we DON’T LIKE about the holidays. Thoughts?

• You in the back.... Did you say carolers, really? You don’t enjoy answering the door in the midst of a marital spat to find 20 Up With People-types smiling and nodding at one another as they sing in four-part harmony? Dude what is wrong with you?
• OK down front here: You’re saying you don't like ribbon candy. What were you, born in the 1880s? Ribbon candy hasn't really been around since they began fluoridating the water. It takes kids’ teeth clean out of their sockets.
• Keith Richards in a Hallmark special about a lonely man redeemed by the love of a beagle? KIDDING! You’ll wait a while before you see that one Luv!
• Over here: Pop artists coming out with Christmas albums they expect you to buy just because they're pop artists? You say Josh Groban who you find hard enough to take without having to listen to him warble his way through ‘Chestnuts’? Now Susan Boyle on Silent Night you can stomach, am I right? She sailed into the hearts of us Americans anyway the minute she pitched a fit about not winning Peat Bog Artist of the Year or whatever it was. We love to forgive, we Yanks!
• Regis in a Santa hat? Well now that's just MEAN. Regis is our Ramses the Great; with a little blush on the old cheekbones he’s plain adorable, like something your aunt made in ceramics class. And you gotta love Kelly. You can just tell  she's fun to live with.

Anyone else? Anyone? Before we close the nominations? Think about it and write us here at the Grinch Department if something comes to mind. And as for me, well I just love everything about Christmas ,especially those carolers. ;-)[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_stLIofpIg&feature=player_embedded#!]
