| + | Sweetly crapping every page |
| − | Christmas caroling is a tradition in which groups of singers travel from house to house, singing {{w|Christmas carol|carols}}.
| |
| | | | |
| − | These carolers are in front of the [http://www.buzzfeed.com/ BuzzFeed] offices singing the {{w|The Twelve Days of Christmas (song)|The Twelve Days of Christmas}}, which ''usually'' contains:

| | | | |
| − | :On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me.
| + | Echoing their crappy strains. |
| − | :12 Drummers drumming

| |
| − | :3 French hens
| |
| − | :2 Turtle doves
| |
| − | :And a partridge in a pear tree.

| − | The carolers changed the lyrics to match the style of headlines of the topics published by BuzzFeed, which usually contain a number and a superlative; for example, ''13 Worst Plane Crashes of the Decade'' or ''8 Otters Who Are So Cute We Can't Even Handle It''. This method of writing headlines, referred to as {{w|clickbait}}, is used by several other news sites, because it is known to generate a lot of visits and therefore more ad revenue. [[Randall]] has touched on this subject before in [[1283: Headlines]].
| + | Gloria, in excelsis cacas. |
| | | | |
| − | Carolers are usually rewarded with a gift, but the BuzzFeed writers probably didn't appreciate the song, because they threw weird stuff at them.

| |
| − | :12 Best drummers of ''all time''
| |
| − | :11 Pipers whose jaw-dropping good piping will make you cry
| |
| − | :You won't ''believe'' what these 10 lords leap over

| − | *The Buzzfeed YouTube Channel uploaded a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_v92edGrMbY video] called ''The 12 Days of Internet Christmas'', which is similar to ''The Twelve Days of Christmas'' song. But the video contains a number of strange objects and images, to name a few, a naked Ryan Gosling and four men with curly beards. Because of its absurd content, according to the like-dislike ratio, the video's quality is rather controversial.
