Don't call me ingorant because you're singing some weird song...

I wouldn't. But calling you ignorant for not knowing In the Bleak Midwinter, a classic carol, is a different thing entirely.

It must be an English carol...

They all are, aren't they? Well, half of them are translated German ones.

Wouldn't have a clue there...anyway, I've never heard of the one you're talking about.

Right. And you know what the technical term for not knowing is?

unknowledgeable?

The term is ignorant, see? Hence 'carol ignorant'. Justified comment, I feel.

Hmph...that implies much more.

Maybe Carol Philistine might have been better?

Doesn't that also imply smugness? I only would have gotten people asking what I meant anyway.

Anyway, I am seeing a distinct lack of Christmas spirit around here! Hmm... I don't think we can build snowmen outside around here...

Hey, SCM, have you put out the presents yet?

Yeah, maybe. But it's a whole lot less insulting that your word.... 😛

No pressies under our tree, not until AFTER Santa calls. 😉

Nothing insulting about ignorant. Plenty of things I am totally ignorant about. Big load of ignoramity from me. Philistine muight have worked if she had had a pretence of knowing about carols that was easily blown.

Well, seeing as Mah is off on holiday soon he had BETTER put the presents out!

Still different to call yourself ignorant over others. Sensitivities at stake and all. 😄

But your Christmas spirit is admirable, you'll make president of the glee club and no mistake!

Ooooh! President! I hope I get a big desk!

I'll go get Dim some extra fudge.

Ok USH, do you know the carrol "Du grønne glitrende tre "

Somehow I do not think not knowing Johan Krohn carols counts as much as a problem for me, though if I were Norwegian I am sure it would be a crime not to.

Knowing carols from my own language and culture is rather different.

Yes, there's seems to be many different carols for different cultures..

Do you want that fudge now?
