Some KICK ASS holiday jingles!

Another non-traditional Christmas song that dovetails nicely with the spirit of this board Reggie Watts - Christmas is for Fucking -
The White Stripes did an epic Canadian tour a few years back where they visited every province and territory. They made a documentary about the tour called "Under Great White Northern Lights" Here is Icky Thump from that doc.

I like Old Dog because he is a loyal, faithful companion that always wags his tail whenever I come home. I hear he also organizes a mean social.

Sad to see you going Steve. I always appreciated your posts and contributions to the board, especially from a Maritimes perspective. That said, I'll cue up "Dirty Water" and play you out properly. -
What does this mean to you?

I think that this is another case of the review vs. recommendation mentality. The guy is trying to provide a review in the way he thinks a review should be done, ie. full disclosure of all details. The lady has obviously asked him not to do that, and there can be any number of reasons for that. Perhaps she provided different (or YMMV) services to him that she doesn't want everyone expecting the same. Perhaps she is simply discreet. The gentlemanly thing to do is to respect her wishes, and offering to PM details is definitely a cop out. I can understand the impulse. Maybe he feels a fraternity with his fellow hobbiests that is stonger than his bond to the lady. Maybe he just wants to feel like a big swinging dick - one of the cool kids. But it comes off as bragging. No different than a drunken story told by the lonely guy at the bar who is simply happy to have someone listening to him. Disclosing every detail of an encounter is a little odd to me. If I was reviewing a movie, I would set the scene, describe the atmosphere, a few key details and how it made me feel or think. I wouldn't outline every plot point and spoil the ending. That is the same approach I take with recommendations on here. -
It's not really the right season for it, but how about some Sangria Wine instead? Jerry Jeff Walker - Sangria Wine

I think that the Drive-By Truckers Mrs. Claus' Kimono qualifies. Also, in the Bah humbug vein, here's Patton Oswalt doing a great bit about how terrible that song Christmas Shoes is.
