Have Yourself a Merry, Recessionary Christmas
Posted on November 9th, 2008 by Mike_Snider
If you’ve been anywhere near a radio this past week, you know that Christmas music has started! (In fact, some stations were already playing it on Halloween Day!) Am I the only one who finds it a little unsettling? No, not just the extra-early onset of Christmas music…I’m talking about the actual Christmas songs they’re playing this year:
- “I’m Dreaming of Still Having a Job This Christmas”
- “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot like the 1930s”
- “All I want for Christmas is some Food Stamps”
- “Let there be Credit Market Liquidity on Earth”
- “I saw Mommy ‘doing’ Santa for some extra Christmas money”
- “Deck the Halls with Eviction Notices”
- “I’ll be Homeless for Christmas”
- “Jingle Bailout”
- “Rockin’ Around the Picture of Last Year’s Christmas Tree”
- “Here we come a-panhandling”
- “Gramma got run over by another banker in a BMW committing suicide”
