Ear Worms

[pdub]

They're tunes that you can't get out of your head, it's maddening.

Fortunately for me, there's a different one every day, never the same one every time. It happens as soon as I put one foot on the floor in the morning. It might be the theme from the Brady Bunch, it might be a Randy Newman song about a river burning, there's no telling. I never know what it'll be, it's random.

So Unit asks me, "I need your help. What's the jingle about hot dogs? I can't get it out of my head."

Instantly, that was easy - Armour Hot Dogs. I grew up with that.

I always heard them called Earwigs , but yeah, the song of the day. I wake up with the song of the day. Sometimes I have to immediately turn on noise to get them out of my head. Try running your day with this morning's song of the day.

I wish I was an Oscar Meyer Weiner. We didn't eat Armour hot dogs. haha. I really hate it when the SOTD is a commercial. I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem pdub. Thanks for sharing.

Me too. On a good day it'll be - say - Piece Of My Heart by Janice. On a bad day, "Yummy Yummy Yummy I Got Love In My Tummy" by the 1910 Fruit Gum Company (hence, "bubble gum" music - betcha didn't know THAT!).

Hell! Consider yourselves LUCKY it is structured jingles!
I listen to chirping.or fog horns...
Right now it's fast chirping with a howl....
Yeah I rubberneck to see where it's from... Kinda hard to look in one's own ears....

Here's one to derail the program again:

Following along in the short/small theme, I give you this.

[pdub]

Matt, that's nearly bizarre but yeah, it's got magnets. That could be troublesome in the coming days.

Deaf Bob - If you ever need a gig you could work for Disney at the "Small World" ride. I understand sane, hearing people last about 30 minutes before running screaming from the park. They don't even stop for their pay (maybe a clever money-saving strategy?). The CIA was using it for interrogation purposes (chain the spy to the ride and make him/her work there for a day) but the UN declared it a violation of the Geneva Convention.

Oh thanks for that Dan! Now I have Nancy Sinatra stuck in my head from the Janet Reno Waco Branch Davidian BBQ Special.
