Dropped by the local 7-11 for a Big Gulp containing the usual 5 different flavors of soda, when I’m hearing one of the store managers singing “Feliz Navidad.”

“Awww man, please don’t sing that.”

He looked up.  “You no like song?”

“I hate it with every frickin’ fiber of my being.”

He just shrugged and went back to cleaning.  I went up to the cash register and dug out my wallet when the cash register starting singing the same song.

“Dude.  Seriously.”

“Don’t like song?”

“I think this is what they play in hell this time of year.  I swear this song was designed to mock the birth of Christ, and it’s not even in frickin’ English.  I hate it, I hate it, I hate it, I HATE IT.”

“You sound upset, yes?”

I sighed.  “I’m having a bad month.”  I dropped the change into their charity box.

“Happy Thanksgiving.”
