My child won't stop singing the "Lava Chicken" song from the Minecraft movie. How do I go on living? (lemmy.world)

Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I'd hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what's another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken?

Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?

Try switching to Parry Grip, some of it is OK and the catalogue is big enough they don't really get stuck.

And just to show solidarity the other day my kid just kept 'teenage mutant ninja turtles'ing for what felt like a half hour without a single 'heroes in a half shell' to round it off.

Expose him to Baby Shark.

Then the Badgers song.

Lather, rinse, repeat until he latches onto a song you can tolerate.

My partner and I used to switch between The Electric Slide and The Hustle as our earworms, so one day we mixed them together because it's the same tune. Now THAT is constantly stuck in our heads

All I'm saying is be careful with this approach for you may make a worse monster

Wait. Before you blow your brain out have you considered surgical removal of your ears?

Not the answer you're looking for, but this reminded me of a short video I saw a long time ago where it was some kids being obnoxious ( as they're known for ) on a train and this man snaps and screams, in Chinese, "Shut up! I wanna die!" because of how tired he was.

Cannot find the clip when I search for it, but I think it's pretty funny. Nor do I remember where I saw it, but that specific little video thing has absolutely stuck with me.l ever since I saw it.
