    The Song? I love Santa Baby. Easy top 10 xmas track for me and likely top 5.

    Not enough innuendo, a lot of missed opportunities. I mean you have cookies and milk, totally unused. Like “fill my stocking with a duplex” could easily have been “fill my stocking with gifts from your sack”. Is she even trying?

    Santa baby, stick a sick old man in a tree, for me. I’ve been an awful person. Santa baby, so hurry, drown, and kill a small child.

      puts on little round glasses, does a bump of cocaine, and pulls out therapy notes. Says, in an Austrian accent:

      Vell you see. OP vas not ze one touched by der Santa Clauz, no. In die zong, eine voman zings zeductively - offering herzelf to Herr Santa. OP’s irrational anger upon merely hearing Santa Baby surely relates to zer own zexual unfufilment. OP is angry because he vas not touched by Herr Santa… or by anyvon.

        I feel this so very much lol. Working in retail (or food) and your boss plays the radio? All year, always the same ~50 songs a day… except Nov 1 - Jan 1, when it becomes the same 20 Jesus themed songs on repeat 6x times a day, and not even different versions.

        The only one that gets a pass is the Charlie Brown one, it helps that it’s instrumental.

    Sadly yes. There are people who love the saccharine sweetness of Christmas and what it represents. It is part of the reason why Christmas has taken over American Thanksgiving.

    It was the happiest time of the year for a large number of adults when they were children and they keep wanting to go back to that happiness.

      “Back in my day” it was a good time because the rest of the year things were tough for the average family, and things were expensive. Christmas somehow had parents scrape together enough for chocolate and toys. And lots of visitors.

    It ain’t my favorite either. But it’s a popular song. I do doubt those exact sentenced were said, by virtue of being a little awkwardly phrased, but I have seen and heard people being happy to hear the song, or to use it as their first Christmas song as they verbiage celebrate the season.
