This has so far been the easiest run out of the two other years I've done it. Usually by now I would've had one close call, but nope. Still going strong.

I'd agree with that, I've only been Whammed the once...
 
For some reason people at work have decided that this is the perfect time to start playing Christmas songs in the office. I'm out, and am probably going to be whammed numerous times for the next month.

Bastards.
 
So far everything's still hunky dory here up north. Though I'm worried MFR is going to catch me out again at work come December.
 
I've barely gone close yet. Though this is the first time I'm not going away on Christmas so it may be harder to avoid the Whammsacre of Jordan.

Just let me get down and back to Minneapolis tomorrow first, then it can snow all it wants!

We have icy rain stuff, so have fun with that. Had no traction in first through 3rd gears at all on my way home...
 
What are you driving that can't get traction at such low speeds? :lol:

Pontiac G5 Coupe! stick with not traction control or abs, and it has quality $20 Chinese tyres. :D

Just went back out and had trouble in 4th and 5th
 
Joined this last year. Easiest "win" you could imagine. I never listen to christmas music. I never go to the mall during the christmas season, I don't watch TV (Netflix yo). Sign me up for year #2.

Don't jinx yourself mister. All it takes is a bit of gloating and the next moment you'll get a heart attack thinking you heard the song.
 
@Aki Ko Didn't happen last year so I think I'm good. Come to think of it I haven't heard the song in years. ;)
 
So far so good, but I doubt I'll make it to Christmas. Between spending time in an office twice a week, and braving the malls this upcoming Friday, I'm sure I'll hear the blasted tune. :(

On the plus side, I genuinely enjoy the Jimmy Eat World version!
 
Famous last words quoted.
Don't think you or anyone here can outsmart me. I never open links without knowing what they are. Usually never have sound on either just in case. Hahaha. I'm in it to win it. ;)
 
I was at work when I heard the chorus. I froze and thought that it was all over but thankfully it was not the original version. As long as the work playlist does not change, I won't get knocked out from work.

EDIT: I had a huge grin on my face when I knew I survived another day. I think it looked something like the picture.

I already wasn't looking forward to the 10-12 hour day. This isn't helping.


Took me 2 tries to get up a hill near my house, because I ran out of momentum the first time.

Close call this evening as well. came home from work to parents playing Christmas music. Heard "that was Last Christmas by Wham, and we'll have more after this." and then the station jingle and ads. 30 seconds earlier, and it would have been an angry dragon...

You better thank that hill for doing it's hill related thing and unknowingly saving you from a welcome home whamming.
 
You know there aren't any prizes, right? :dopey:

Not even a gold star or a pat on the back. :grumpy:

:D

We need prizes.
Anyone that survived should have a bronze star for their first year, silver for 5 straight years. gold for 10 and platinum for 15+ :D
