The halls are decked out, the tofu turkey is freezing, and you’re sitting in a graveyard of stoplights, preparing for your annual shouting match with your family and dearest friends.

Now, when things calm down, everyone can enjoy “It’s a Wonderful Life” in peace… as long as they turn up the volume loud enough to drown out the ticking of the doomsday clock.
