My cow-orker, the earworm carrier

The BBQ Pit
1

Not bad enough that he’s a snitch, he also sings and hums incessantly and every fucking song gets stuck in my head and I can’t get them out until he starts singing another one! Among this week’s musical highlights:

The Notre Dame fight song
The Mexican Hat Dance
“Hair” from the musical
My Country, 'Tis of Thee (or perhaps it’s God Save The Queen)
I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles

Which doesn’t even take into account the random, near-tuneless humming that pops up between numbers. I admire eclectic musical taste as much as anybody, but KEEP YOUR FUCKING SONGS THE FUCK OUT OF MY FUCKING HEAD!

Be glad you haven’t been listening to ESPN Radio in the morning.

If you change your mind, I’m the first in line, honey I’m still free, take a chance on me…

3

Sing the Barney Song at the top of your lungs every time he starts up.

Or get an office with walls and a door.

Thanks for reminding me . . . Last week I happened upon one of my cow-orkers humming “Do the Hustle.” Now I’ve got that running through my head again.

5

I can’t get “Charlie Brown” out of my head–a song that was popular before I existed and that should have never been any kind of hit, ever.

Who calls the English teacher Dadd-io?

Who cares? They would be glad to be called that today!

It’s a small world after all
It’s a small world after all
It’s a small world after all
It’s a small, small world

I’m forever blow-ing bubbles
Tiny bubbles in the air
They fly so high
They nearly reach the sky
And like my dreams
They fade and die…

GAH!
My mom sings that song. A lot. Or the jingle for Kohl’s (That’s more like it! Kohl’s!).
Oh. I suppose I didn’t help your predicament, hunh?

Gah, between this and the marching band talk in another thread, I now have the sound of “Do the Hustle” as performed by solo flute over. and over. and over. in my head.

doot-doot doot do doot-da-doot doo doot! AUGH.

It could be worse, instead of humming obscure ditties from yesteryear he could be rapping – or whistling any of the following:

“The Andy Grffith theme song”
“The PC Richards commercial theme”
or “The Mr. Softee Ice Cream truck song”

You put your left foot in
You put your left foot out
You put your left foot in
And you shake it all about
You do the hokey-pokey
And you turn yourself around
That’s what it’s all about!
