We have one here. All Christmas music 24/7 all December.

It’s kinda bizarre
This is half of our local stations and pretty much every American retail establishment.

Yeah I can see detail outlets using it a lot for sure.

I once worked in a store that had only 4 songs on repeat. All day.
4 Dido songs.
Dido.

I had a nervous breakdown after a few months.

I've been listening to The Woods all weekend. What a masterpiece that album is.

I'm not a huge sleater-kinney fan, I like their other albums fine, but The Woods is an all time top 5 album for me.

It's just so raw and powerful.

Absolutely. It makes speakers throb with the reverb and power.

WTF happened to Hot Water Music? They went from a great little punk/emo band to some terrible Gaslight Anthem knock-off.

We have two stations here who started before Thanksgiving with 100% Christmas music. UGH.

And my son has one of them on in his room all the time. He even goes to sleep with it on. He decorated our house to look like something out of Christmas Vacation by drawing a scale representation of the house on graph paper and measuring how many lights we have. It's bizarre.

That’s kinda awesome. How old is he?

You should watch Star Wars with him.

Or maybe that’s the cause of all this

He's 13. His Star Wars track count in iTunes is averaging 100 plays a track.

I was talking to my wife the other day: You know how your musical tastes are pretty much cemented when you're a teenager? When it's not Christmas time he listens to the local classical station all the time.

He’s gonna be an awesome event planner or really intense site foreman in future.
Or the next John Williams. Buy him a piano.

He bought his own cello two years ago and is taking private lessons and wants to join the Air Force's orchestra when he graduates.

Hes's the youngest 80-year-old I've ever met.

They have a browser? I just use the TOR browser with DDG, is that the same thing?
they have a mobile browser for iOS (i'm guessing Android too). the best part is they have a "burn" button, and a fire animation moves across your screen and deletes your entire browser session. pretty fun for my inner pyro that would actually never set anything on fire. only bad thing is you can't port over your bookmarks from Safari or Chrome

Perry Farrell is one of those guys I can really really admire but I don't get most of his music.
