something else on christmas songs

found out yesterday that someone had done some research into the effects of christmas songs - you know - those cheery heralds of good tidings and peace on earth, topped off by a sprinkle of kiddy choirs and a few sleigh bells, all served on a plate of commercialism.

it would appear that the number of attacks on shop staff by the customers go up when they're played in their particular stores.

i also heard that someone is another country is trying to sue their employer for the psychological disturbance caused by repeated exposure to this seasonal muzak.

bit of a contrast to bea's previous post - maybe we all need to get out of the shops at this time of year and find places where no musics being played at all.
