It was the “‘Tis the season to be shopping” card nestling next to the “Merry Christmas Suckas!” one which bought on my annual bah humbug rant this year.  Brother, here we go again.

PS.  There is a version of this on YouTube which uses Tom Lehrer’s voice with the words written up on screen.  Badly.  Without a single apostrophe or indeed any other punctuation.  I discover it pains me too much to use it.  Does this say more about them or me?
