    When I worked retail I would take any earworm during the holidays that wasn’t Christmas music

      It’s currently jumbling around alongside “Murder at the 18th st garage” and “My Evil Plan”, only occasionally getting cut into by Mariah or Wham.

      (Apologies if anyone here saw me tell this story before.) I worked at a video arcade during Christmas in the 90s. I worked every single day, at least 8 hours a day- never got overtime either, but that’s another story- they had a VHS tape they got from the company every month that had music videos, cartoons, etc. on it. It was on a 1-hour loop. That was the year All I Want For Christmas Is You came out. I literally heard it hundreds of times that month.

      I want Mariah Carey to die of an extremely painful rectal prolapse. Like the whole intestinal system just flies right out her ass and she dies horribly. That’s how much I hate her because of that song.

        Hahaha!! Oh hell, I feel it. Whoever decided that looped videos and music like that, that the employees can’t get away from, should have a special place dedicated to them. It should be considered a form of human torture to put employees through that.
