To ask - Can You Be Whamageddoned in November?

34 replies

Jumell · 15/12/2024 16:43

Ok so just after 4pm this afternoon it finally happened… I was Whamageddoned - in a coffee shop in the town centre.

I mean how rude !!!!!

However I think I heard Last Christmas first at the very end of November - 29th I think.

So tell me - I know I’ve been well and truly Whamageddoned now but is November too early ? Someone said November doesn’t count.

is he right?

I've just been Whamageddoned by father Christmas on his bloody sleigh going round our area for the delight of the kids. I'm sure that shouldn't be allowed.

Fucking Santa. Knew he was untrustworthy! 🎅🏻

Blimey, I didn't realise there were actual rules and website for this. How daft. What's the point of it, except to get people posting about it on FB?

What’s The Game?

Seems I’m late to the party ?!

Show quote history

The Game is that everyone is playing The Game. You lose when you remember you are playing it or discover that you are playing. As soon as you forget about it you are back in it again. So the next time someone says to you that you’ve lost The Game you suddenly remember it again, and have lost.

It’s the kind of stupid shit that is funny when you are 14.

It was all the rage about 15 years ago. If you think about The Game, you have lost it.

And the rest. It was going on when I was at school, and that was the 80s.

I went out today - Smooth radio played a trailer for an upcoming interview with Andrew Ridgely and Last Christmas was tinkling in the background 😄

I think it's the first time in 2 years I haven't made it to the end.

aw that’s such a shame only 9 days to go !!

Great, I’ve been sent to Whamhalla and lost the game on the same day today.

Double whammy!

I was out on December 2nd which was great as I like the song and it meant I could watch the lovely documentary about it on iplayer.

I'll be watching as soon as I'm out. I was out on 1 Dec last year, so I'm doing better this year!

Is The Game a completely different thing to this Whamaggedon thing then? God, I am so confused. It's a bit like Mornington Crescent. I'm starting to wish I'd stayed out of this thread. 😂

How have I lost the game? I thought the only point was to try to avoid hearing Last Christmas for as long as possible. What did I do to lose the game?

It's fun. Of course you get some boring pieces sniffing about how it's immature and passé but boo them
