It's that time of year again where the turkeys are nervous and there's a jingle in your bells, so who's in for this year's game?
It's not that complicated. Allow me to enlighten you.
THE FIRST RULE
The objective is to go as long as possible without hearing WHAM's Christmas classic; "Last Christmas".
THE SECOND RULE
The game starts on December 1st, and ends at midnight on December 24th.
Use your local timezone, if you'd like.
(Yes, we're European heathens)
THE THIRD RULE
Only the original version applies. Enjoy the fuck out of remixes and covers.
THE FOURTH RULE
You're out as soon as you recognise the song.
While I can't stop you from deliberately sending your friends to Whamhalla, the intention is that this is a survival game. Not a Battle Royale. So ... don't be a dick, mkay? |

Can I propose a similar game with John Lewis Christmas Ads? Because I have NEVER SEEN ONE. And let me tell you, it takes some effort. |

Don’t you just need to not watch scheduled TV? That’s not hard |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
I don't listen to the radio or watch regular TV, so normally do fine until I go shopping or hit the Christmas parties. |

Christmas 2018 I got Whammed in as I walked out of a Christmas decoration shop in Bruges.
I didn't realise until I was walking down the road and realised I was singing it. |

"Still only heard it the once! I swear the radio station did it on purpose
I don't listen to the radio and only watch films on television, yet I've heard it twice already. "
Twice shy. |

Long may it continue |

I'm avoiding most radio stations and telly channels too. It only takes the radio at work and this weekends Xmas house party to catch me out.
Still in though! |

I am still in because I cleverly had my booster today which means I can spend my days on the living room couch.  |

Amazingly I'm still - even with my grandson being down & forever watching those Xmas music countdown channels - I'm sure it's only a matter of time tho! |

"I thought I'd be crafty & leave voice notes of myself to my chums singing Last Christmas, then switch to Wham at the end to properly Whamageddon them. Sadly, they cottoned on & stopped listening before the real tune played.
I guess Ive just Whamageddoned myself, FFS! "

The warehouse has started blasting Christmas songs. 9.30 this morning I heard it. Surprised I lasted this long. |

I’m still in, I have a fiendish plan to spend December working with my earbuds in with no Christmas songs on the playlist.
Is this cheating? |

I should still be OK until this weekend.... |

The advantage of being off sick for the last few months is it keeps me away from the Christmas songs haven't had to listen to any yet |
