Merry Christmas!

Coke Santa has something he wants to say to all of you:



But you have to sit on his lap to hear it.

A Neil Gaiman Christmas

Design studio animates Gaiman's short holiday poem:

39 Degrees North: Christmas Card 2010 from 39 Degrees North on Vimeo.

Holiday music you (perhaps) wouldn't be embarassed to be caught listening to

"Christmas Number One" / The Black Arts




"Another Christmas at Home" / Eux Autres



"I Wish it Was Christmas Today" / Julian Casablancas (of The Strokes)

*amusing trivia: yes, this song is from SNL

@*#$ you if you don't like Xmas!

(nsfw)

A Holiday Classic

And by classic, I mean *super* racist.

The gift of Selma Blair hotness

Another blog holiday rerun: Selma Blair and The Office's Rainn Wilson inverting "Baby It's Cold Outside":

To kick off the holiday season...

...a classic returns.

Slayer Christmas Light o Rama

It's like a big budget Gooby!

Finally, a version of the Nutcracker with explosions.

What's wrong with everyone...

It's Christmas! That means:

Steve Martin's Christmas Wish

One of my favorite SNL skits (and Steve Martin bits) of all time. Merry Christmas, everyone! (Except Sara, for Sara I wish a Happy Kwanzaa!)

Let's Not Lose Sight of The Real Reason for the Season...

LIGHTSABERS!



(Yes, I'm using the Christmas Blogstravaganza tag for a Hannukah reference. Ballpark.)

Xmas Wallpaper Megapost

Been collecting an ass load of Xmas wallpapers over the last couple weeks. Click the thumbnail to visit the wallpaper's ImageShack page which will feature a "View Full Size" button for fullsized wallpapery goodness.

Baby It's Cold Outside (Version 1,325)

Look away, D3... it's another version of that song you've grown to hate.

For everybody else... fun role reversal with Rainn Wilson (The Office) and Selma Blair (Hellboy).

While Looking for Some Xmas Tunes to Play In the Store This Morning...

...cause I don't have any of that crap on my own music player, I looked online and found that AOL Radio has ten different free streaming Xmas stations that play through a lightweight browser (flash) interface.

The Xmas Rock station seems pretty good so far despite being all Xmas muisc, all the time. I've only heard five songs so far, but it's been Foo Fighters, Ramones, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Peter Gabriel and Tom Petty. There seems to be a hair more advertising than Pandora but much less than broadcast radio.

And the best part? Not a single repeat from the last few years of Rogues Gallery Xmas music! ;P

So if you're wanting to play some free Xmas music at home, work, or whatever that you haven't likely heard too much, check it out.

As I wrap up this post, a Xmas song by Twisted Sister started... So, I'm not so sure about my endorsement anymore lol. O_o
