Already?

It is November 2, 2005. Halloween just ended. Thanksgiving is still nearly a month away. The autumn leaves are still on the trees. And 100.3 WNIC is playing Christmas music. What...the fuck

Yeah, it starts earlier every year. I remember that at Bath & Body Works (where I used to work), all the Christmas stuff came out the day after Halloween, along with the music (still way too early). But this year, they already had the Christmas stuff out at Bath & Body Works (and Express) this past weekend, before Halloween. This just proves that capitalism is evil. As for WNIC, I've always liked that they played all Christmas music, but they should wait until Thanksgiving; I'm writing a nasty letter!

You worked at Bath & Body Works. Oh Alex, I love you.

Hasn't every homo worked at Bath & Body Works? Haha!! I must add that I loved it. I'll also add the fact that I played the flute throughout my years in band (not to mention some piccolo my senior year). I guess I've always been a gender bender. And Matt, I too, love you :)

That's just sick. Christmas before Halloween? Will the conservatives please stop shrieking about how the liberals want to ruin Christmas by making it secular? We're ruining it by making it commercial.

Ugh. I have Christmas carols in my head because the Subway I stopped at before work had WNIC on. Jesus Christ, give Thanksgiving a chance!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I wish more people in America appreciated it.

Let's ALL protest against 100.3!!!

I completely agree that Christmas songs should NOT be played until December, or Thanksgiving at the EARLIEST. It's fucking annoying if you ask me, they're going to overplay the songs to the point where everyone will stop listening to Christmas songs before Christmas even arrives. So sad

I wrote WNIC several nasty emails last year. Apparently they didn't care. At least last year it started out with a couple of weekends of holiday music before starting it around the clock. Fuckers.

Leave the poor little kid and his mom's red shoes alone! That song makes me cry.

You crack me up, take a chill pill, however, you are right, it's way too early.

[sinistervodka]

She doesn't need shoes, she needs antibiotics.

[happier_bunny]

According to the story that the song is based on, she's dying from cancer (if I remember correctly).

Cemotherapy, then.

You are hilarious! I SO know what song you're talking about!!

When the hell did it come out? I remember it seemed to pop out of nowhere last year.
