tinyE: From the song "Father Christmas" by The Kinks:

Father Christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
Give all the toys to the little rich boys
The Kinks actually have some good tunes, you're missing the most important one, "Living on a thin line."

chadjenofsky: Non-stop Christmas songs have already started on radio stations a week or more ago in my area... God help us all.
Non-stop Christmas sales have started back in October before the Halloween candy ran out. Black Friday now happens 26 days out of the year. I would be afraid to venture a guess as to how much time of our lives collectively is spent on watching advertisements.

The only problem with putting money back into the system, is that system spends it trying to put money back into it again. Just look at how much the average advertiser puts into a "super bowl" commercial.

Charlie Brown was rightly depressed by all the commercialism, he wasn't predicting the future he was already living it.

New Kinks fan here. I didn't know them so thanks for the hint.
I'm often listening to Little River Band, Uriah Heap and Golden Earring when it comes to such music.

...oh and Kansas!

Two decades worth of blues and rock'n roll guitarists might vehemently disagree with you on that particular claim...

I'll give you blues but try to imagine any kind of rock guitar without distortion.

No, I mean by the time the Kinks entered the scene blues and rock'n roll guitarists had been experimenting with distortion for a good 20 years.

Well, of course -- hardly anyone uses GamersGate anymore! The thread's bound to be deserted.
