Needs more Christmas music

She makes me want to jump into the abyss, not just gaze long into it.

I swear to God if I hear that song one more time I'll go Setlik III on the closest radio.

You think you hate it? I worked in a video arcade in a mall when that song came out. Arcades at Christmas in malls were horrific back then anyway because shopping parents decided to make us babysitters, but we also had a 1-hour VHS tape that we got from HQ every month with music videos, cartoons, etc. It would get to the end and rewind and play again. Of course, the music video for that song (where she is uncomfortably sexual with Santa, by the way) was on that tape, so I heard it 40 times a week, once an hour. And then on weekends too because I was doing "required" overtime.

My condolences to your ears and temporal lobe.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you. I am still recovering, but it's been a long and rocky road.

This made me genuinely chuckle. Well done artist.

You know, the older I get the more I completely understand Cypher’s decision to want to get jacked back in permanently and forget the real world exists. Ignorance is, indeed, bliss.

Cognitive behavior therapy would kill to have the ability to jack people in.

That’s like the end goal of it lmao

January: hurtling into the abyss

After buying a portal directly into the vacuum of space to help him clean his house, Larry does not get around to using it in time for Christmas, so instead he hangs lights on it to distract people from the dust.
