IIRC - #1 and #3 on the list covered that.
12. Airports.
13. Airplanes.
14. The ISS. (Can never say with astronauts - they have no proper sense of gravity.)

I was driving a little bit ago. The radio was off. I found this an issue and decided to turn it on. I immediately hear:
♪ Last Christmas, I gave you my heart,
but the very next day, you gave it away. ♪
Now at this point, the thoughts going through my mind are variations of the word 🤬. However, I realized it was a woman's voice. I'm done with radio until New Year.

Ok, I've devised a plan. It's not bold nor cunning but nevertheless it's a plan.
As the majority of the larger shopping centres here start playing the Xmas tunes at the start of December I took advantage of not being at work today to head into one of said traps. After a few hours of stress free shopping with no Xmas music in the background I've managed to pretty much complete my Xmas shopping.
The few gifts left will be purchased via small independent stores safe from the clutches of music in the background.
Final couple of gifts will be bought online.
Which brings me to the internet, I have supreme confidence of safety here as I only ever turn on the amp for my computer for specific purposes and never whilst browsing.
My final concern seems to be the radio.
Safe at home and car as I don't listen to it that often and will simply refuse to do so during these testing times. Work seems to be the only possibility of a Whamming as it was a combination of the radio at work and bacon-gate that was my undoing last year.
Vigilance will be the key here to ensure that I'm on guard at all times and take control of as many radios at work as possible to ensure they are on stations that never play Xmas tunes.
If I'm to go down it will be fighting.

I was Wham!med today 20 minutes into my shift at work. I was told that it would be a Christmas song free environment until the 1st of December, guess someone set me up or lied.
Lets see if I can break my record of being Wham!med 12 times in one day...

I often listen to music channels when I'm on my own, more of a background thing when browsing the internets after I come home from school. Now, obviously, it's a month until Christmas now, so the channels have started playing Christmas songs. Instant Whamicide, you may say. But, at this moment, not every channel is playing Christmas music - only some. So I've made a note of which ones (Magic, VH1, Bliss (renamed to 'Blissmass') and NOW Music (NOW Christmas) to name a few), and when I reach these channels, I've come up with a method to save myself from George. I simply try to skip past them as quick as I can and yell 'LALALALA' in the process. I look odd flicking through channels yelling 'LALALA' at the top of my voice, but I don't care, I'm safe from George.
For now.
For now.

You should have at least asked what would have been on the music playlist. Do your co-workers know that you couldn't listen to Last Christmas? That would explain why they would bother to play that awful songI was Wham!med today 20 minutes into my shift at work. I was told that it would be a Christmas song free environment until the 1st of December, guess someone set me up or lied.

.Why don't you just keep the mute button ready if you have to go across the channels? It would save yourself guaranteed from George and would be less tiring without having to shout at the top of your voice for protection.

A mini-wham. 
That's the worst kind of wham. You just get the tip of it, and then you're choked off.

Decided to look around the Currys/PC World store during a 3 hour break from college classes and they were playing Christmas songs as soon as I walked in the door, but I was lucky they were playing Jingle Bells. Still I quickly made an about-turn and left the vicinity.

I'm not officially in this because I know if I enter officially I will hear this song every day until January.
I did avoid some major Whamtosis this morning. I was flipping through satellite radio on my way to work, scrolled past the Christmas station and it said "Last Christmas - Wham" on the display. I was able to flip away before any sound came out.
Dodged a bullet there.
