Don't get the wrong idea - I like the holidays. But some of the music should be banned for life.

I'd start with "Christmas Shoes".

That's awesomely terrible, lol.  I'm going to have to think about it to get specific but I can start with anything by Mannheim Steamroller.

Oh that's easy. I turn the radio dial in my car the instant I hear anything about grandmothers walking home after drinking too much egg nog. 

Mannheim Steamroller is pretty tedious- agreed.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer usually results in a station change.

I am assuming this is a "fun" question so I am going with "GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A REINDEER". Its not so much the song but how many times it gets played. 

 If the question is for real then, "AC/DC's MISTRESS FOR CHRISTMAS".   :whistle:

A whole bunch of Tour Edge golf stuff...... :beer:

I think you can interpret the question either way. I'll have to check out the AC DC tune

12 days of Christmas. So long and repetitive it feels like it actually takes 12 days to complete.

Long repetitive and boring. Nothing worse than being cajoled into singing this at some gathering.

Or that one.

Or that one and any parodies created from it.

Fortunately that still leaves a pretty lengthy list of good Christmas songs out there since I like Christmas music.

I love Paul McCartney, but Wonderful Christmastime is on par with the 1-877-Kars-4-Kids theme song.

All of them. Seriously, it's like this select bunch is played over and over again, while tons of great covers of Christmas songs by great artists go by unplayed.

I can't change the station fast enough for the latter one!

I would add The Little Drummer Boy. It is tedious like the 12 Days of Christmas with the added complete lack of reality factor. In no way would Mary and Joseph welcome some little brat with a drum just after their baby was born. And why did the ox and lamb have to keep time? Because he was a shitty drummer, that's why!

It's just one list, YMMV but it seems the worst are played the most often.

I have to turn the volume to zero every time that cars for kids thing comes on.

Mariah Carey's song - don't remember the name of it off hand.  Rest assured, if she's got more than one, then they all suck.

If you want to hear some good Xmas music The Vandals album is a punk rock classic.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
