“Mary Did You Know?” is by far my least favorite Christmas song. It’s a pretty song, but anyone who’s familiar with the Bible knows the answer is “yes.” The Annunciation has been an inspiration for art for centuries.

The worst is Andy Williams’s “Happy Holidays.” No other song drove me closer to madness than that one when when I worked retail.

The fact that this song isn’t on this list negates the whole premise of this article.

Mind you, I’m kind of a grinch, so I’m not a big fan of many Christmas songs, but Paul McCartney’s “Wonderful Christmastime” tops the list of worst for me.  It is just the laziest damn song, a lot of the runtime eaten up just repeating “Simply having a wonderful Christmastime”.  It is just torture to listen to.

No “Wonderful Christmastime”? This list is trash.

20. The Royal Guardsmen, “Snoopy’s Christmas” (1967)
4. “Weird Al” Yankovic, “The Night Santa Went Crazy” (1996)

And another thing, I fully admit to being sick and tired by “Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer”, but it’s a pretty darn popular sing that gets a lot of airplay every year. It’s weird to include it on a list of songs most people have never heard of (at least not in the versions listed here) and never get any radio

Star-Lord, man! The legendary outlaw?

... who?

We sophisticated types call it “gauche.”

I’ll never admit that the clown scene from The Ladies Man changed my life in an interesting and sometimes horrifying way.

It’s what older folks called “ghetto” and even older folks called “tacky.”

looks like Handsome Squidward

Oh, OK, so that’s where this Matt Rife guy came from.

He’s just a hack comic who looks like Handsome Squidward. That’s his entire claim to fame. He’s not that funny. His crowd work is mid. He’s just meh all around. I would expect nothing less from an untalented comedian.

I was going to say that if a friend of mine had said something like that when I was in my teens or maybe my early twenties I would have laughed my ass off. From a professional comedian in 2023, it’s a lot less impressive.

Time travelers from 30/40/50 years ago probably found the joke quite entertaining.

Putting aside whether it’s offense or not, it’s just a flat out bad joke. It’s hacky.

LMAO. Let’s keep this joke going: “When she brought us the check, I signed my name, and next to ‘tip’ I wrote ‘next time, duck!’”
