*shakes head* I feel like that time in high school when my favorite calculus teacher took away my perfect quiz average for the quarter because I couldn't remember one stupid silly little theorem -- and because my biggest boy rivals for grades in the class were loudly, openly harassing me while I tried to concentrate and finish, and teach didn't do anything to stop them -- instead of letting it slide.
Actually, I would rather watch a presidential speech (and the ensuing analysis by Olbermann and Maddow) than anything Charlie Brown, any day. Never liked the Peanuts gang.
@thecameralovesyou: I don't even like the music; too jazz-y for me. I remember my piano teacher once gave me a book of Peanuts music, thinking I'd love it, and I had to stifle a grimace. Give me the staid old carols, please.
Also, GET OFF MY LAWN, you damn kids! God, I'm grumpy today…
@Kivrin: Oh, well then we're opposites on that front, because I love the music BECAUSE I love playing it on the piano! I definitely have to be in the right "jazz-y" frame of mine though. If not I just go to my Frank Sinatra Christmas book!
Garfield's Christmas was always my go-to christmas cartoon.
@thecameralovesyou: Hee, I know lots of people love Vince Guaraldi, but jazz in general stresses me out as a pianist. I am just…not jazzy. Mozart 4 LIFE, baby. :-P
President Obama, you're the only person I know who can take a wonderful special like "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and turn it into a policy speech on war. Maybe Sarah Palin's right: Of all the godless communists in the world, you're the godless communistist.
You can either watch Charlie Brown put an ornament on an sad, inadequate Christmas tree OR you can hear our President put forth his plan for a possibly unwinnable war. Po-tay-to po-tah-to. At least I know Charlie Brown Christmas has a happy ending.
@badmutha: Don't get me started. I think this is why Asian and European nations sometimes call Americans a bunch of adolescents. Our collective historical memory is about five nanoseconds long.
Is this before or after we lose our sovereignty when Obama hands over the keys to the kingdom at that climate conference? You know, by saying we (North America) should do our part, he's giving away our sovereignty. Also, he hates Christmas, Jesus, the bible, democracy, "Real Americans," uh, what am I forgetting? Did I mention Jesus? Oh yes, and now Charlie Brown. This is what happens when Fake American Muslins take over the country and socialize our communism.

Not that it would make this painting look any better.
