Okay, I'm going to say it... I don't like Christmas music.  Well, at least not the vast majority of Christmas music that they play in department stores or over the radio.  This began as a tiny little nugget of annoyance way back in 1999, when I worked at this kiosk in the mall, and in order to keep things politically correct, they only played Christmas music that was pretty religiously ambiguous. Unfortunately, this limits what they can play to only about 10 songs, which are replayed incessantly.

This annoyance has been growing over the years, and is now a full fledged pet peeve. I think I may start a tally counting the diversity of songs played on the radio, and then count how much airplay each song gets in a given work day.  I'm guessing Walking in a Winter Wanderland gets about 17 plays per day.

 Furthermore, has anyone noticed that there aren't really any NEW Christmas songs?  The newest one I can think of is Happy Christmas (War is Over) by John Lennon and Yoko Ono which came out in 1971.  Three decades of nothing new, unless you count Kenny G., which I don't.
