Christmas music is pure cringe and I absolutely despise it. I want to listen to music that works for all seasons. However I won't play a silly game that relies on trusting strangers from the internet, who could very easily lie about NOT hearing the song.

In other news I'm definitely in this year
 
It’s just for fun, nobody lies about it. What would be the point? There’s nothing to gain.

A large factor of the game (a major mechanic) is sharing the experience with the community and being untruthful is just lying to yourself mainly. It simply doesn’t happen if you’re properly playing the game.

The strangers on this part of the internet have played this game long enough to no longer be strangers. ;)
 
Supermarket got me. Carey’d and Whammed! in the space of 1 quick grocery run.
I thought I’d be safe because it’s still November. Nope.
Bro, there is almost no store or supermarket that is safe when November rolls around. People do NOT want to wait until December to bust out the Christmas jams.
 
Ok hold the hell up:

That was 6 years ago. Things have changed quite a lot since then. Am I not allowed to change my opinion on the matter?

Is it mandatory that your change in opinion has to come off in THE most condescending tone possible (Despite no one forcing you to do this at Gunpoint)? Was it really necessary for you to post in the thread with said tone as if it needs to be known like all the pointless "I quit GT" Threads instead of just NOT posting here at all?

Main point however is that this is exactly what you said:

And yet 6 years ago you literally did exactly that, which makes the tone all the more questionable. Did this game hurt you or something to warrant this?

Being a Brit is like a built-in cheat code, we generally don't do the Xmas thing until the proper month - unlike some countries I could name. Should be safe for another few weeks as long as I avoid certain shops. Always a risk of a sneak attack but I usually have my pods in when I'm out of the house.

I must have used the wrong code. Work's choice of station yesterday played many Christmas songs and even the one which must not be named was used as part of a day long competition. No chance. Even the choice today which is a different station is playing Christmas music. What is wrong with these people! Unfortunately the UK is taking on too much American culture to say we have have some sort of barrier to this.

Well this song can cause PTSD to which they want to avoid. So yes it would have been better to have not posted but you can't blame them from being burnt my the Carey!

I didn't know where else to express my displeasure about the absolute stupidity that is Christmas music. Avoiding Last Christmas was bad enough, let alone a song made in the name of commercialism which many people have come to totally hate, including myself. Trying to avoid it is NOT fun and I no longer wish to play along. The essence of the game has been lost since the passing of George Michael and this version honestly feels like a cheap imitation. I don't understand why it had to be changed in the first place because keeping the competition running in it's original form wasn't going to desecrate on George Michael's memory, in fact it would probably keep it intact but hey, I don't make the decisions around here.

I wanted to criticise the game and the song at the same time. And being a hallmark thread on this website, I thought it was a good place to create the most amount of attention possible, whether it be bad or not.
