This will be the sixteenth year we'll be running our own iteration of the festive free-for-all that is GTP vs.

That's old enough to be in high school. That's a couple of years away from voting in many elections globally. It's already old enough to vote in Brazil and Argentina.

In that time, forum members (and @Obelisk's dad) have faced year after year of campy Christmas music, whether the introductory synths of George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley, or the jingles and high A note of Mariah Carey.

In Mariah's term "it's tiiiiiiime"

General Rules and Guidelines:
  • Survive the remainder of 2025 (i.e. 23:59.59 in your time zone) without listening to All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey
  • Only the original song performed by Mariah Carey counts. Remixes, covers and the duet version with Justin Bieber don't count.
  • Hearing any part of the song counts as getting Carey'd. If you're unsure whether it's a remix or the duet version, keep listening to find out, or use apps such as Shazam or Google Assistant. If you're still not sure, it may be in good faith to consider yourself out.
  • GIFs, still images or muted video do not count.
  • When you hear the music, consider yourself Carey'd, out of the competition..
  • Do not post any links to the song in this thread without sufficient warning. This place is a safe haven.
  • While the rest of the site is free rein, keep in mind the site's rules regarding misleading (next bullet point)
  • You will not knowingly post any material that is false, misleading, or inaccurate.
  • If you play the link in the OP with any intention outside of refreshing your memory (i.e. playing it over Discord or a PlayStation party), you will be Carey'd if you hear it.
Some tips to avoid the song:
  • Do not trust anyone.
  • Avoid shopping at department stores, clothing stores, supermarkets - anything that may have a radio playing.
  • If you must step outside, consider bringing noise-isolating earphones and play loud music on them to avoid any other songs.
  • Do not trust anyone.
  • Have your computer defaulted to 'mute' and make sure that your volume is off while opening any links.
  • Do not talk to any other GTPers using Discord, Facebook, gaming voice chat, social media, or open any musical Christmas cards physically sent to them. We are all evil and cannot be trusted.
If you haven't yet heard the song, click on the video below to watch it before avoiding it until next year. Think of it as your "safety".

Count me in. Safe to say that due to the low amount of residents in my apartments, There is no threat of being Carey'd by my neighbors.

My sister however is always on Instagram reels... time to pop on the headphones full blast.

I'm not going to actively try and avoid it. But I'll report back when the first 'shots' are fired to warn others.

It has begun
The song hasn't yet hit the Top 100 in the UK Singles chart yet, but I'm sure it'll start to vomit all over if pretty soon.
 
Already had a narrow escape, a TV at the gym had the song playing - luckily it was muted, but I nearly had a heart attack when I saw the subtitled lyrics :lol:
 
I'm in. Hopefully I can make it into December
 
I'm in.

Hearing Christmas music in the shopping centre over the weekend was a stark reminder of the dangers of this time of year.

I'm in. It should be reasonably easy as I haven't listened to the radio in at least a decade.
