What a Sado!

So I have been trying to ward off the negative Christmas Spirit I have. I'm just not really into the holidays as much as I used to be.
To try to ward off that negative feeling, I've been listening to Christmas Music. Today I was listening to the 12 days of Christmas when it suddenly occurred to me that this "True Love" was quite a jerk. Where the heck was she supposed to store all of this crap? Let's assume that the lady singing lives in a suburb. A pear tree might be able to be planted in the front yard (if the city gives the permit, that is). So I can see that. And I can see the 2 turtle doves sitting in the tree with the partridge.
Then comes the increase of poultry, and, honestly, what are you going to do with all of those live birds (Calling birds, French Hens, geese, & Swans)? Furthermore, does the poor woman have to dig a hole, build a pool and let the swans go swimming or are they all supposed to fit in the tub? What is to be done with all of the eggs the geese are laying?

Fouls aren't the worst of it, though. 12 drummers (each one trying to out drum the other, and one of which is the different drummer some one is dancing to the beat of), 11 Lords (who are nothing but legs. Tall skinny long legged leapers), 9 Pipers (Let's hope they are the piccolo type and not the bag pipe type), 10 ladies dancing, and, lastly, 8 maids who are milking (and unless they are milking each other, they probably each brought an orgasmic cow...). If you add it up - this poor woman has to find housing for 50 people. And they probably didn't carpool so that's 50 cars lining up the street ticking off the neighbors.

I bet what really happened was the True Love forgot an anniversary. This women said he could make it up with 5 gold rings, but instead this jerk thought that unloading all of this other crap on her would make her happy. What a jerk!

  2. another thought on it...
    it says "AND a partrige in a pear tree" at the end of every verse. so by the twelth verse, she gets 12 parterages with 12 pear trees. and adding as well. :)
