Wait, this song implies that the celebration of Christmas is an act of mass cannibalism against until-recent neighbors?
This is pretty much exactly what Yuletide originally meant.

Yes. So much of what Americans think of as Christmas stems from those barbarians from the north of Europe.This is pretty much exactly what Yuletide originally meant.
Now I'm not saying there is a direct correlation here, but don't think its been overlooked that this thread was named after one of the most god awful holiday songs of all time only a couple days before COVID was discovered and pretty much threw the planet into chaos.
I'm not saying that its @DaveG fault that the world has gone to shit over the past 4 months. But I'm also not saying that it isn't.
Now that I think about it, there is a clear cut all time worst, even worse than that one.I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus is the worst Christmas song. There I said it.
There is zero evidence that the Santa actually was the narrator kid's dad.I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus is the worst Christmas song. There I said it.
...did you...see...Santa "kissing" mommy...? (not a repressed memory anymore)There is zero evidence that the Santa actually was the narrator kid's dad.
His daddy's out working the night to earn them bread to eat and some dude in Santa costume is at their home banging his momma against the kitchen wall while the kids are sleeping upstairs.
It's a tragedy being built up.

Clarence Clemons is the best of all time don’t @ me
I don't think that's the case, but I'm happy to be proven wrong. I don't think there is any cannibalism story traditionally associated with Yule. I've read one cannibalism story involving Gryla, but that was a much later creation. I don't think that story was around until the 1700s or 1800s.
The great midwinter blót, or Jól, took place in the middle of January.[4] Freyr was the most important god at the Midwinter and autumn blót,[citation needed] and Christmas ham (the pig was for Freyr) is still a main Christmas course in parts of Scandinavia.
I knew it would make sense to you.Ah, that explains a LOT.
Now that I think about it, there is a clear cut all time worst, even worse than that one.
Do They Know it's Christmas? by Band Aid
An all-time condescending song
I just watched the Pixies music video for this and yep... That's a perfect addition to that coverIn college my band played a cover version of the Pixies cover version of the Jesus and Mary Chain’s “Head On”, which loosely has the same chord changes as Band Aid and we would finish the outro screaming “Feeeeeeed the woooooorld.....Let them know it’s Xmas time” layered over how Head On really ends.
We did this gleefully and rarely sober. As time has passed I’ve come around to thinking we gave that song exactly what it deserved.
Panthers, NC State and Hornets have dropped CPI Security as a sponsor after CPI head Ken Gill sent an internal email, then released, about the protests currently gripping the US. I can't see it anywhere if the Hurricanes did the same.
Discuss!
They should still drop a sponsorship as a show of solidarity. Maybe Kinetico since they sponsored Bill "Grand Wizard" Peters.The Hurricanes have no ongoing partnership with CPI.
