That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

Despite the initial effort it took to limit myself, this turned out to be an effective strategy. Worried I would feel guilty or lazy for only attempting three tasks, but I don’t. 😄
Results:
Made observable progress. ✅
Felt overwhelmed. ❌
Completed list. ✅
Worked nonstop all weekend. ❌
Verdict: 🌟🏆
You have my deepest condolences. May the season be swift and the fuckery minimal.
George Michael face above WHAMAGEDDON The Rules: The 1st Rule The objective is to go as long as possible without hearing Wham! Christmas classic, “Last Christmas“. The 2nd Rule The game starts on December 1, and ends at midnight on December 24. “ (Yes, we’re European heathens.) The 3rd Rule only the original version applies. Enjoy the fuck out of remixes and covers. The 4th Rule You’re out as soon as you recognize the song. Bonus Rule Post on social media with the #Whamageddon when you get hit. PVP Well, we can’t stop you from deliberately sending your friends to warm Hala The intention is that this is a survival game, not Battle Royale. So don’t be a dick, mkay?
May the odds be ever in your favor.
