I thought I was going to get whammed when I was in my friends dorm and she was playing some Christmas songs off a Spotify playlist. Luckily I was spared, but then I fell asleep, and woke up.
In fear that it may have played while I was asleep, I scrolled through the playlist, but fortunately it was not in it. Though can I say the real Hard Mode would be not hearing that damn Mariah Carey song even once during Christmas. It might as well be impossible unless you bar yourself up in your home for winter.
Rule clarification, can you be whammed if the song played in your presence, but you were asleep?
