Personally, I've never been someone whose lips curled at the sound of holiday hits or who demanded the radio be shut off ASAP the second Mariah Carey came on.
My heart has always been full of Christmas joy, but not everyone can say the same.
If you're one of those people who find the holliest, jolliest hits of the season to be more depressing than uplifting, there might finally be a reason why. (You know, besides the fact that you've all caught a serious case of the bah humbug.)
