    Earworms and memes

    I have a problem with getting earworms on a regular basis. Songs, commercials, movie quotes, etc. You know, those things that get stuck in your head after hearing them. Couple that with a...let's call it an odd sense of humor and suddenly strange things are afoot at the Circle K.

    The latest has been the "Stay in you're lane bro" tattoo artist commercial. After running through my head about eleventy dozen times, my brain started spitting out variations:

    Two streetwalkers: Stay in you're lane ho
    Two garden utensils: Stay in you're lane hoe (alternatively it could be Stay in your row hoe)
    Two wheat farmers: Stay in your grain bro

    Finally in a moment of grand madness (or genius, it's a reeeeeeal fine line) this happened:

    I expected this thread to be far more disturbing.

    I’ve never seen the commercial, but I love the pic. Will probably be stealing...

    I find your lack of faith... disturbing.


    Give it a couple of posts. It’ll get there.

    I'd forgotten about that. I was 10-11 when that came out (1982?) and it always creeped me out.

    Actually pretty good for the time, critters still seem visually believable.
