It was a Christmas spirit! How exciting! Now I feel like getting in a big group and going up to people's doors and singing at them!

R.L. Stine posted:christmas is about remembering jesus by doing a bunch of weird druid poo poo christmas was changed to dec in order to try to suppress the weird druid poo poo, but the druid poo poo was so popular it got incorporated into christmas like a jolly old elf who breaks into your house, who must be placated with offerings and warded against with green and red evergreen decorations, who leaves gifts if pleased, who punishes the unworthy, early christian’s were like oh um no that’s, saint, saint Nickolas ahah yep totally christian

Carol of the Bells was a song meant to commemorate pre-christian Ukrainian traditions for the new year (in spring). It too was made jesussy.

I've rolled two businesses into one and began a caroling/gangstalking hybrid venture. It's gonna go over like gangbusters.

AARD VARKMAN posted:What the gently caress is the deal with Christmas "caroling"? Have you ever had a group of people show up singing at your door? Hell, any goons maybe even participate in this phenomenon? I've been caroling because of school. Maybe 6th grade? They had us march around for a few miles and sing at random homes and an old people's home. We sang feliz navidad to a bunch of old white people. I hated it but I talked with a nice old man while we were there, he's likely been dead for 20 years. I have never had carolers show up to my own door, I wouldn't open it for them anyways because that would be loving annoying.

for a while I thought maybe it was invented for television but probably it was invented by perverts (England?)

We have neighbors who stop by every year and sing. The only part I hate is that I don't know when they are going to drop by so I am never drunk enough to enjoy it.

Goddamn if there’s one time to invoke the war of Christmas “hearing about Christmas literally rapes me” to HR then that’s the fuckin time!

The only carolers I’ve ever physically seen were performing at the mall probably 30+ years ago, authentic Dickensian outfits and all. I always thought they were a 19th century literary thing, myself.
