 Ensures a function is called only once.
 
-Utilizing a closure, use a flag, `called`, and set it to `true` once the function is called for the first time, preventing it from being called again. 
-Allow the function to be supplied with an arbitrary number of arguments using the spread (`...`) operator.
+Utilizing a closure, use a flag, `called`, and set it to `true` once the function is called for the first time, preventing it from being called again. In order to allow the function to have its `this` context changed (such as in an event listener), the `function` keyword must be used, and the supplied function must have the context applied.
+Allow the function to be supplied with an arbitrary number of arguments using the rest/spread (`...`) operator.
 
 ```js
-const once = fn =>
-  (called => (...args) => (!called ? ((called = true), fn(...args)) : undefined))();
+const once = fn => {
+  let called = false;
+  return function(...args) {
+    if (called) return;
+    called = true;
+    return fn.apply(this, args);
