A few stations started playing Christmas music the week of Halloween, so yes some do that. I think Christmas stuff should start at the earliest, last week of November.

Agreed. Johnny Mathis is only good in December.

Songs that should be played in October should depict an average evil meteor from out of the sky asking a small dumb boy for brains.

I can get used to a new player and channel design, and I actually like some of the layout changes they made.
But I can't stand how soft and pudgy it looks. Try to count the number of gradients on each page. And look at the amount of space between each comment. Blargh, it's much less distracting when it's flat. Gahrhrhahhrhrhahrhahrheahrhahrha this is the opposite of streamlining design.

People do that?

I saw the year's first Christmas ad about a week before Halloween.
Now, some ads get a pass, since you might have to plan in advance what to get people for gifts- it's not inconceivable that, by Halloween, someone might be looking for things like toys and clothing to give.

That doesn't apply to Christmas themed ads for unrelated products. I'm willng to venture most people don't buy Aleve as a gift, so there's no excuse debuting an ad featuring Santa with back pain two months before Christmas.

Christmas in the Philippines already started like a month ago or two. Which is quite odd hearing Christmas songs in the middle of October. o _o

I got a glass of cider
took a drink
it had fermented in their fridge
I've never been so disapointed in my life.

His Location is "A very small country"
though it's more than likely that he just hasn't bothered to change it.

It was more than likely a reference to the Philippines.

The Grey Wolverine · Post by **The Grey Wolverine** » Fri Dec 02, 2011 11:02 pm

So guys, today was the best day of English ever. We were acting out a scene from The Crucible (I love this play BTW) and to sort of explain to us that people would basically yell "WHICH" and we put all of our desks in a corner to make the chairs into a circle thing to make a stage more or less. Anyways, among a few other things from a dead stop I jumped up onto my chair, struck a pose, yelled WHICH! loudly, grabbed a ceiling light, leaned the chair back allowing me to slide off the chair. And my teacher did not even care.

I don't think you were banned. In any case, I've removed all the bans issued today.

Most of those have been fixed. It's just obvious ones you have to go out of your way to say.

The SpamServ on the IRC will ban you if you use certain words within a word. The bans only last an hour though, so there is not much to worry bout there.
