I really like most aspects of the Christmas season- the lights, the decorations, other people giving me stuff, even the weather. In fact, there’s really only one thing about the season I don’t like: that infernal music.
Traditional Christmas songs are fine. What I can’t stand are the hideous modernized version of Christmas music, usually in some half-assed generic rock and roll or jazz style, that is endlessly piped into the sound system of seemingly every place of business within traveling distance of my home. I go grocery shopping, it’s there. I go to the mall, it’s there. I go to the dentist, it’s there. It never ends. And my exposure is fairly limited; at least I’m not subjected to it at work. I can’t imagine what it would be like to work at something like a grocery or department store and have to hear it for hours on end, day after day.
Is it just me?
