Beatnik Exploitation Christmas Songs. (Seriously. I made that mix).
I *have* that mix. LOVE it.
Come on. You drop by for a cup of coffee, and the world's not ending? Please.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I'm watching Better Off Ted on Netflix On Demand and it is hilarious.
I am now also sad that there are only 13 episodes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Christmas music: Do They Know It's Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Adeste Fideles, Little Drummer Boy sung by the Supremes.
Nothing else. Okay, you could slide some more hymns past me, but I don't love them.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I, uh, really don't like Love, Actually. That's as mildly as I can put it.
Ayup. (My feelings towards that film can best be summed up as "STAB STAB STABBY HATE STAB")
There was a very good reason why I didn't see it when it came out, and now I'm realizing that it's good I haven't bothered to correct that.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Laurence Housman's "Cloak of Friendship" is my one true Christmas story. If interested, you can find it here: [link]

I, too, have never seen it. Don't have an urge to, either.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I've always loved the David Bowie-Bing Crosby version of Little Drummer Boy. And there is an Emerson Lake and Palmer Xmas song, I think it's called Father Christmas but I'm not sure. Anyway, very powerful pull for me, that song.

"I Believe in Father Christmas." It one of my favorites.
I love the book A Christmas Carol, but I don't really have a one true movie or staged version. Great Christmas stories include the beginning of Little Women and when Mr. Edwards meets Santa Claus in A Little House on the Prairie.

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" is the one that always gets me. I adore The Pretenders' take on it, but Judy Garland's version in "Meet Me In St. Louis" is the one that kills it for me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I've always loved the David Bowie-Bing Crosby version of Little Drummer Boy.
I love the Dandy Warhols version they used in Veronica Mars.

Another one that gets me is "I'll Be Home for Christmas."
