Do what the court tells you and report it for the record.
Lay low. Wait for closure. You are a young stud, time is on your side.

Elmo got nothin' on The Jester!  :woohoo:

Now earworms. check this search i kinda agree
http://www.webmd.com/mental-health/news/20030227/songs-stick-in-everyones-head
heres the text for those who wont click.:
"Songs with lyrics are reported as most frequently stuck (74%), followed by commercial jingles (15%) and instrumental tunes without words (11%)," Kellaris writes in his study abstract. "On average, the episodes last over a few hours and occur 'frequently' or 'very frequently' among 61.5% of the sample."


Here's the students' top-10 earworm list:


1.Other. Everyone has his or her own worst earworm.
2.Chili's "Baby Back Ribs" jingle.
3."Who Let the Dogs Out"
4."We Will Rock You"
5.Kit-Kat candy-bar jingle ("Gimme a Break ...")
6."Mission Impossible" theme
7."YMCA"
8."Whoomp, There It Is"
9."The Lion Sleeps Tonight"
10."It's a Small World After All"


Stuck song syndrome annoyed, frustrated, and irritated women significantly more than men. And earworm attacks were more frequent -- and lasted longer -- for musicians and music lovers. Slightly neurotic people also seemed to suffer more.


Kellaris hasn't yet found a cure. Women are more likely to try to get rid of the offending ditties. Men are just as likely to do nothing as to fight their earworms.


What helps? Kellaris doesn't know. But he found that when people battle their earworms, nearly two-thirds of the time they try to use another tune to dislodge the one that's stuck. About half the time people simply try to distract themselves from hearing the stuck song. More than a third of the time people with songs stuck in their heads try talking with someone about it. And 14% of the time, people try to complete the song in their heads in an effort to get it to end.

interesting link Yama! .. ive noticed over time too that some songs or jingles will work... but are country specific .. or region specific .. or age/era you grew up in specific...

daaa daaa dee dah , daa daaa Dee Dah .....

like if i quoted the little jingle contained in the movie scene in Grease .. Brusha brusha brusha , use the new i-pana , brusha brusha brusha , its better for your teee-eeeth ... you'd likely know it from the movie .. and also because it was primarily a US advert anyway ... but Zooky might know it... maybe not if he hasnt seen the movie... so it would be a fairly loose attempt at an earworm for him... but could easy mess you up for a few hours...   ;)

Daa Deee Daa Daaah dadadaDah ...  (this familiar yet?) ...

like theres an advert that used to run a lot for my area of South Coast NSW, Australia .. for a holiday/caravan park... (and yes by mentioning it its stuck in my head again at the moment) ... real annoying mnemonic tune ... i hated it after a week of ads! .. but for you it would be pointless... and probably for most other Aussies around here too... just not widespread enough!

Budweiser frogs could work! .. for you... for Zooky? .. i dunno his age or the amount he browses overseas jingles... so its a possible fail again...  :dunno_black:

daa daaaa daa Dee Dah DeeEEh DaaAAAH DAH Dah Dah ..... by now you might be thinking its Star Wars .. but i've fragged it all up.... most people will associate dahs and dees with Star Wars .. or Jaws!! ... but its still not that .. and becoming puzzling...

its all about the delivery of the info .. getting someones mind to consider the possibilities and be curious and hopeful for a resolution!! ..

Yama .. you can look this one up when i say the ident of it...

but im hoping Zooky is curious by now .. and wondering what the hell it is.... which means theres a hell of a lot better chance that it will hit 'the earworm target' squarely...

it is of course.... Not... Star Wars.. Not... Jaws ...but ... the old Victoria Bitter Beer Advert!!!! .. you can get it workin ... you can get it shirkin!! ... you can get it rollin your car!! .. matter of fact its in Zookys Eaaaarrrr!!  :D

.. he might not know it.... or he cottoned on early and skipped the post... or doesnt see this cos it will be a page past by the time he looks... so we might have to quote it!! ..

it might be he was only humouring me with 'admitting' i got him 2 days in a row... which is still cool!  .... i love the earworm game!! ... and will honour/announce all successful attempts against me!!  :thumb:

anyone?.... anyone??

... and yes Mister ... Simon and Garfunkel is also stuck in my skull.... you bastard!!  :D

Janx101

and Yama .. there is heaps of them .. but probably the most hokey version is  the 1988 one .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WA1h9h7-_Z4   :icon_lol: :thumb:
