Yes. Holidays are have been here for quite a while. You dont see them as much as you may have seen them in the past, but carolers are still around.

I personally dont care enough to sing. Sure, its nice to hear while walking about in the mall, but let them sing their hearts content.

Funny, I somehow knew walking in to this thread that there would be a shotgun option. I, of course, picked it.

This reminds me of the time when awnsered the door in my underwear and carolers ambushed me.

The kicker, I actually stayed there and listened. In my drawers. Listening to Jingle Bells...

I chose the option with the big blue bar beside it Although I like singing to other songs that I'm listening to on my computer or something, I'm not about to go out singing at people's doors

Interestingly enough, I can't remember one Christmas, from as far back as I can recall, where carollers came to our door How many of you have had that happen?

Isn't that because they're getting banned in areas or something. I've heard stories.. because of the religion thing.

Anyway, I did it when I was younger once. I had some friends with me so it wasn't so bad, but it got dull quick. I wouldn't do it again.
I really don't like Silent Night.

Same as Kyouji, but replace Shotgun with Sniper Rifle. I like getting them when they can't see me. *nods*

But I knew the option would be Shotgun, and not Sniper Rifle. Damn you, KATW!

This year, I don't think I'll be getting any carolers. The only way to enter my place is from a secret door in the back of the house, then up three flights of unlit stairs. Then, there was going to be this dart gun thing, but I couldn't keep it because of legal reasons or something.

Oh yeah, I chose the blue one.

I'd like to share with you a song that has been passed down for generations in my family.

There's Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
Commet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen..
but do you remember him?
The most famous reindeer missing a limb?

Fester the gangreen reindeer, had a very rotty leg.
So they amputated, and replaced it with a wooden peg.
All of the other reindeer, used to laugh right in his face.
They never let poor Fester park in a handicapped-wheelchair space.

And then one frigid Christmas Eve, Santa came to say:
"Fester with your leg that's fake, what great kindeling wood you'd make!"
And then all the reindeer loved him. And they shouted out with glee:
"Fester the gangreen reindeer, you're our favorite amputee!"


Yeah, I like to have an excuse to sing funny songs loudly. So I carol Arrogant Worms songs and Fester and such. Not so much this year, but yes.

LOL, Squash Monster -- I'd love to hear somebody sing that at the Carols at the church!

Other than that, we don't really get door to door carollers around here or anything. Some people go to Church and sing carols, but that's it.

I rarely sing in front of anyone in the first place, so...

Thankfully we don't get carolers around here.

I've never come across Hannukah carolers..
and I didn't mean the songs themselves were banned.. I don't know what I meant. It was related to caroling and you can't do it as freely or something. I wish I knew the whole story.

Never been caroling, but I'd like to. Then again, being around me in person is like caroling anyway. I'm almost always singing, but especially around Christmas.
