Doesn't appeal to me but seems to be going down a storm Playing the game means that you would like others to pay for your food and drink. All you have to do is post your location and table number in the Facebook group, and the free booze and grub will come flying. The game is ultimate karma: a giant round where if someone gets yours in now, you owe someone else in the future. Karma has been in our favour this evening. Ilman had to stop the game after 17 minutes because our table was crammed, most likely due to his post that the Guardian were coming down to help celebrate the group reaching 400,000 members. (Another 1,000 members join during the couple of hours I’m sat at the table.) I help dish out what we can’t quaff and scoff to other slightly bemused customers, unsure why they are receiving free booze and grub Full story here... www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2023/nov/29/the-wetherspoons-game-why-thousands-of-people-are-buying-food-and-drink-for-strangers

Where's the Don't Like button? Sounds ridiculously wasteful. Consumer-fixated bullshit
