Christmas Songs To Tickle Your Funny Bone

Every year on the day after Thanksgiving, sometimes before, the radio stations automatically switch to Christmas music. You can hear "Joy to the World", "Jingle Bells", and "Feliz Navidad" on every station until December 25th. Christmas songs range from classic, to fun, to sacred, but there are also the outright silly ones, the ones that are hardly ever played. These are the kind of songs that are just outrageous enough and catchy enough to get stuck in your head all day. Here are five for your enjoyment.

"Dominick the Donkey" by Lou Monte

You either love it or hate it, and I personally love it. Dominick is an Italian donkey who helps Santa deliver presents. The reindeer can't get up the hills in Italy, so Dominick carries the gifts on his back.

"Leroy the Redneck Reindeer" by Joe Diffie

Rudolph gets sick and asks his cousin Leroy to fill in for him. All the other reindeer laugh at Leroy because he wears overalls and drives a truck, but by the end of the song they are singing a different tune.

"Mambo Santa Mambo" by the Enchanters

.This song is basically about Santa doing the mambo and being the best at the mambo.

"Christmas Cookies" by George Strait

Strait sings about his love for Christmas cookies in the song. He finds them so irresistible that he sometimes eats them before his wife can get the icing on them.

"Santa Claus is Watchin' You" by Ray Stevens

Ray Stevens is known for his comedy songs like "The Mississippi Squirrel Revival", and this song was also a hit. In the song, Stevens tells his wife that she had better be good to him because Santa Claus is watching her all the time (He's everywhere, He's everywhere!)

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

Does anybody know how to study

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
