yummy turtle - Upsetting New Compulsion

Here's my blurb. "Blurb" is a dirty, horrible word that I wish I could remove from this page.

I could go on and on about myself very boorishly here, but I figure that's what the rest of the journal is for. Instead: a plug for democrats, labels, and quotes from people who are smarter than me.

Upsetting New Compulsion	Apr. 21st, 2008 @ 09:33 am

A distressingly large percentage of my weekend has been devoted to singing the Rocky theme song in the direction of my pets, most of the time using their names as the song's syllables (i.e., "Ned ne-ne Ned ne-ne NED ne-ne Ned, Ned Ned ne-ne Ned ne-ne NED ne-ne Ned"...)

Does anyone know how to make this stop?

My favorite trick to getting a song un-stuck from my head is something I learned from Duncan. Sing the Inspector Gadget theme song. For some reason, this totally works for me, totally clears the mind and I can move on.

I have a friend who, when she had a song stuck in her head, used to need someone to sing the whole song along with her before she could get rid of it. Going with that theory (sort of), this might help:

Or maybe that makes it worse. Hm.

[Posts the video from Pet Sematary 2 where the guy tries to drill a hole in the other guy's head, which for some reason can't be found on YouTube because all that's there is the scene where the same guy kills Budnick with the backwheel of a motorbike.]

That's how you do it.

A good dose of Hum usually clears the aural palate.

Same answer I always give: reverse the polarity on the flux capacitor.
