GTPlanet vs. Mariah Carey [2023]

[ScottPuss20]

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.

 

[RACECAR]

You could also have not posted here. Just sayin...

You must be fun at parties.

And even more fun at Christmas parties.

 

[ScottPuss20]

My family and relatives would completely disagree with this statement.

 

[Daniel]

I dunno, they could easily lie about NOT hearing the song you being fun at parties.

I dunno, he did say that his family would disagree that he is fun at parties, so clearly the party pooper lifestyle is confirmed.

Wait, I'm sorry, people that I've known my whole life are liars? Wow.

Sounded more like an insult to me but anyway.

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.

We're just not trusting strangers on the internet, who could easily lie about NOT being a party pooper.

 

[AudiMan2011]

Crashed out to Carey while in the opticians. Not even my glasses could make me see this coming.

Sounds like an open and shut case of malpractice, I'd sue.

Looks like I've started my own Oscar Piastri meme.

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.

I’m not even in a western Christian country lol. It’s bonkers. I was too naive.

Soooo...

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

 

[DK]

I'm in, let's see how long I last.

 

[Flex0r]

I'm game, hopefully I can survive longer than last time!

 

[MroczMR]

Still in game. But closer to Christmass the more dangerous the world is.

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?

 

[OJBrit]

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.

Unpopular Opinions - General Thread

Since that other thread about unpopular motorsports opinions has gained a respectable amount of traction recently, why not also extend those to everyday life? Post opinions of yours that probably wouldn't gain you a lot of support, but which you vehemently (more or less) continue to hold...

Most overrated song?

While I am aware we have a thread for overrated artists, one thread I can’t believe we don’t already have is one for overrated songs. I am sure we have some songs out there that have become very popular that we feel aren’t nearly as good as they’re made out to be and don’t deserve the popularity...

www.gtplanet.net

Songs you're tired of hearing

Whether it be a good song or a bad song, I am sure we all undoubtedly have had a few that we hear too often in various places and wish we didn't have to hear them as much as we do. Well, this is the thread to post about them! Surprised nobody has made a thread like this already. 🤔

www.gtplanet.net

What is the worst song ever?

I'm not sure really. There are a lot of songs I hate. I'll choose every N'sync, and Backstreet Boys songs.

In terms of your continued presence as a Debbie Downer in this thread...

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.
