Comment: It's great the LL Bean's puts out a Christmas catalog. Thank you for celebrating Christmas with me. I was disappointed to see that inside that catalog you called the evergreen wreath a Tartan Holiday Fir Wreath, you also had a Winter White Wreath and Centerpiece. They are called Christmas wreaths by everyone I know.
Focus on the Family's Have a Very Angry Christmas Stand For Christmas is really depressing, but it's difficult for me to look away. This is my favorite comment: "I went to the store on the 20th of November and there were no signs of Christmas but then it was BEFORE Thanksgiving. I'm kind of tired of Christmas starting in October. However, since everyone else is already showing their Christmas signs, I was surprised to see it absent here."
This Christmas season, I'm thankful I'm not working retail anymore.

I'm also grateful to not be working retail anymore at Christmas. I'm even more grateful that the place I used to work would have been considered "Christmas-offensive" since we recognized that there are other holidays that happen around this time (and best of all, I never had to listen to Christmas music).

I used to work in a 711 a few years ago and the manager had me play this stupid Mariah Carey christmas cd on repeat. I got fed up, I took away the cd from the cd player and put on some fucking Burzum instead.
@baby jesus must die:
when i was working the overnight shift for a Major Catalog Company (not a bad job for the most part, since from 2am-6am i only had to work about 15 minutes) my colleague put on the light rock station. this was when that karaoke movie with gwyneth came out and they played the gwyneth/huey lewis cover of "crusin'" two or three times a night. so for a couple months the song i listened to the most was "crusin'." bad times.
