Too much Christmas music in CR!
Two Cedar Rapids stations are already playing round-the-clock Christmas music! 96.5 started Monday morning, then 104.5 started Monday afternoon. Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas music, but this is pushing it.

2. I'll be the first to admit it...
I HATE CHRISTMAS MUSIC. Matter-of-fact, I kinda hate Christmas. It's supposed to be the season of goodwill to men and love, right? Then why does every other driver cut you off in traffic? I know, I know, he/she is probably on that quest for the last vibrating Elmo...

There is no other time of year when people are so self-centered, rude, arrogant and have such a complete disregard for others which must co-exist on this Earth with them. Yes, I realize people give to the bell ringers and take angels off trees. I firmly believe this is done as a trade off: "Okay, God, I'm gonna buy these three poor kids art sets and in exchange you're gonna look the other way when my entire family swoops down upon the Olive Garden and demands immediate seating and then throws a 15-part hissy fit when it doesn't happen."

It is as if most folks are walking around while trying to maintain a Yule Log with their sphincter.

3. LOL!
You are going to get me into trouble here at work! You crack me up.

Bah Humbug!

I am not a fan of Christmas music either, nothing sucks worse than an employer pumpin that crap over the PA for 3 months....nor do I like how the holidays can bring out the worst in people...but I love the family time, the gift giving, the cozy-ing up with a loved one in a big fuzzy sweater sippin hot chocolate and thinkin about what to give the kids.

Lol..but the Olive Garden thing...totally true. My girlfriend would appreciate that..she was a Olive Garden server for a few years.

4. Oh, no!
I listen to 96.5 cuz they play so many 80s tunes and I get nostalgic. Now I have to listen to Jingle Bell Rock? Lord help me....
