Then, we’re led to believe that the only reindeer with an actual man’s name is the one getting shamed.

You literally wrote this song about him, Johnny Marks. “Do you recall the most famous reindeer of all?” Uhm, yeah, his name’s Rudolph. Not the least of the problems with this 1949 song is how it immediately insults the listener. With frozen tongue in cheek, here are 10 classics that could just as easily offend and outrage. (If there’s a lull in the conversation at the Christmas dinner table, simply mention any of the songs on this list.) So, with “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” now wiped from our holiday playlists, let’s have a few too many cups of egg nog and needlessly analyze the lyrics of other seasonal songs. Others, fresh from listening to Kanye West and Lil Pump’s “I Love It,” argue it’s just a song. The lyrics, penned by Frank Loesser, haven’t aged well since 1944 and many people believe it’s time to put the song in an Uber and send it home forever. Few things have divided people this holiday season like “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” a non-Christmas song that tends to get played a lot at Christmas because, well, it’s cold outside.
