LOL!! I'd forgotten all about Mr. Hanky the Christmas Poo. Wonder if that's become an annual Christmas program on Comedy Central?

I did not know that. I watched the video on Youtube and it's pretty awesome.

It used to be "O Holy Night" until that time a few years ago when we were driving home from Mom's house while singing it and hit the deer. Now it's "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer".

I left a store yesterday because they were blasting a Mariah Carey Christmas song. Don't know which was worse, the sudden nausea or the splitting headache.

"Grandma Got Molested at the Airport," via Bob and Tom; or
"The Most Offensive Christmas Song Ever," via South Park. (might have one or two words wrong in this title...just too lazy to look it up right now)

Silver Bells -- doesn't matter who sings it

"Rebel Jesus" by Jackson Browne Very close runner up, "Fairytale of New York" by Shane McGowan and the Pogues. Kirsty MacColl is the female vocal in the most famous version of it. She passed away several years ago and he's done it subsequently with Cait O'Riordan and some others; it tends to change since Kirsty is gone. I was shocked to find out that Maire Brennan did a version with Ronan Keating; the lyrics have several "naughty words" in them (including the infamous Anglo-Saxon "eff" word so dear to the heart of the Irish) and Maire is a heavy duty Christian.
