SJWs rewrite classic Christmas song - Baby, it's PC outside

[Polexia Aphrodisia]

Remember the song "Baby, It's Cold Outside"? The one that plays incessantly on the Christmas stations in four different covers? It was featured in the movie "Elf"? For some reason it's considered a Christmas song even though it did not originate in a Christmas movie or album?

SJW types have had a stick up their ass about Baby, It's Cold Outside for years. They insist that it promotes "rape culture" and date rape, citing the line "Hey, what's in this drink?" as referencing roofies as opposed to someone wanting to improve their mixology knowledge. It's frequently cited in "Worst Christmas Song" lists, despite it - again - not once mentioning Christmas.

Well, apparently some couple from Minnesota found themselves so bored and easily triggered that they decided to make an SJW-approved version.

Completely forgoing concepts like "meter", "consistency", and "storytelling", they insert lines such as "You reserve the right to say no" and "Baby, I'm fine with that". It goes from a playful back-and-forth to a woman repeating "I have to leave" over and over while the man sounds like he would love nothing more than for her to get her ass out of his house.

It's been described as "adorably consensual" but I prefer to think of it as "unnecessary and hackneyed."

I prefer the alt-right version.

[Honeybunny]

"Adorably consensual" is not a functional phrase

 

[JU 199]

Whoever was involved in this should feel bad about themselves.

 

[Hom Tanks]

And you fucking cucks insist that there isn't a "War on Christmas"?

 

[MrTroll]

Whoever was involved in this should get pancreatic cancer.

Ugh. The original was mainly just cheesy and outdated. This version fucking sucks. (I'd a million times rather listen times rather listen to the original or the Key and Peele one -- as I linked above. God I'm going to fucking miss that show)

 

[The Lawgiver]

The original song has a roofie joke...

RAPE CULTURE!!!!

 

[Henry Bemis]

Frank Loesser had many things to say about the differences between men and women (see: Guys and Dolls, complete score of).

Date rape was probably not one of them.

 

[Pickle Inspector]

The couple’s revised lyrics are adorably consensual, opening with “I really can’t stay” sung by Liza and “Baby, I’m fine with that” sung by Lemanski.

Most notably, when Liza sings, “I ought to say no, no, no,” Lemanksi responds with “You reserve the right to say no.”

Lemanksi sounds like a he's a real hit with the ladies.

Isn't the original one sung by a latino man to a white woman?

Therefore they're denying latino men the right to date interracially! How very un-PC of them.

To be fair, the lyrics are kiiinda creepy by today's standards But with that said, I highly doubt it was the original intention of the song. To me, it seemed more like cutesy banter between lovers.

But who cares. That song sucks anyways.
