Well done that store. I'd probably be more receptive if they just revved an engine or ran a washing machine on a spin cycle. Anything but the bells, the bells.....

Oh yeah.

All artificial scents. I can't stand to walk past a bath and body store in the mall.

Hate the smell of fake cinnamon.

Love the smell of Mrs. Z's baking with real cinnamon.

Oh ugh. Scents are often a problem for me too (asthma). I sell gift gards as a fundraiser for the school. A few years ago around this time I opened up the delivery packet and couldn't breathe because Bath and Body had decided to make their gift cards scented. Candy cane and cinnamon :vomitblu: Even the office staff who are normally into that sort of thing complained about the stink.

also agree with Hallmark and brag-and-gag letters. Find those easier to avoid, though.....

Lamplighter 12-02-2010 08:51 PM

I learned a new word today: "brag-and-gag letters" :D

monster 12-02-2010 08:53 PM

heehee -I got that from a Brit Expats board from a Brit married to an American -she was bemused by them, he shared the name with her....

monster 12-02-2010 08:54 PM

....and then she sent us one a few years later and I have a horrible feeling it wasn't meant to be ironic...

Fuck the bells
Abso fuck the fake aromas
Not at all keen on rocking, c&w, or muzak versions of christmas songs. Have minimal tolerance for piped music of any sort.

fake cheer.

I approve of forcing dogs to wear humiliating costumes. Especially if they look hilarious in them.

All the brag-and-gag letters we get (which isn't many) are digital. Way better than wasting postage.

Candle stores. Ugh. My nose feels raped after going in one of those stores.

Gravdigr 12-03-2010 02:47 AM

Oh, and HUMBUG.

Office Parties. Seriously, why?

monster 12-03-2010 06:57 AM

Is it true there's no alcohol at office parties here?

Bah Humbug!
 
ALL of the xmas music. Most espescially when I'm in a store, or when I'm on hold with a place and they think it'll put me in a better mood to have xmas music playing.
All of the people who insist xmas is about christ, no...its about spending money on other people and getting money spent on you. Its a stolen holiday anyway (back me up pagans).
All of the people who get pissed about it being called a "holiday" tree, or "winter" break instead of xmas. This season not about christ for most people, so stop pretending
My family making a jesus birthday cake, and then singing happy birthday to jesus
All of my favorite shows having to run a knockoff A Christmas Carol or It's A Wonderful Life
All the weight I gain from eating desserts
