Want to wish the COX community a warm safe and happy holiday season

There's a reason I associate this clip with Xmas...

 

 

Regardless, enjoy the holidays, stay safe, and stay sane.

Blessed Yule, y'all.

And for everyone else... sing along.

I love the holidays, all of them but during Christmas, I cannot stand any variation of the 12 Days of Christmas.  Eff that song and its stupid variations.  Burn in a fire you annoying repetitious sad, loser song.  Traditional or not, it doesn't matter, muppet version, Jersey version, Bob and Doug McKenzie versions, all need to be destroyed.

 

Seriously, eff that song.

 

Really, the hatred of a thousands super novas.

 

Oh and Merry Holidays 🎅

Well, at least you didn't reach the dreaded levels of "Bah, humbug!"

 

So you're fine with endless repetitions of Maria Carey during the season?

Its not a bad song, I think its a great song actually but it has been so overplayed that it is now hated.  Therein lies the difference, the 12 Days (all versions in all dimensions) is a bad song and because it is so bad everyone keeps hoping that someone fill find a variant that tolerable.

 

Now could 101.7 the Breeze FM play Mariah's song a little less, sure.

 

All hail the Bumble!

Heh. It is one of my favourite pub quiz maths questions.

If you totalled all the items my true love gave to me in the song...

Spoiler

...would I have preferred a new Apple Watch? Probably.

But the grand total is 364. Including 42 geese, and I'm not clearing up after that lot.

 

Or if you wanna get fancy, use the tetrahedral algebra:

 T(n) = (1/6)(n)(n+1)(n+2)

 

So

 T(12) = (1/6)(12)(13)(14)

 

There is a song that plagues Brits far worse. Do any other countries play Whamageddon?

It's a survival game that involves doing anything and everything to avoid hearing Last Christmas by Wham, whereupon you will be sent to Whamhalla.

(Covers and remixes are fine: deliberately trapping your mates using Alexa, playlists, radio requests etc commits you to Whamhell.

Double-Whamhell if you're a DJ.)

Never heard of Whamageddon, but, yes, I could definitely see the need for that game.  😬
