Good King Wenceslas
Good King Wenceslas is one of my favorite Christmas carols. Did you know that he was a real person and that in 935 AD on this very day (September 28th) he was killed by his brother?
Now maybe you can think of that cheery fact every Christmas when you hear the tune. At least you can take comfort in thinking no matter how stressful your family gatherings are least you probably won't be killed by one of your siblings.

No. My brother is a theater professor and director. He won't be killing me.

For potential spam - this is oddly specific. God wants me to lift free-weights? Interesting angle.
