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?
Make it inhumanely cringe. Start calling everything lava chicken as a replacement for “cool”, make lame ass Minecraft dad jokes at every opportunity, yell chicken jockey out the window to summon your spawn in public.
That wouldn’t be very lava chicken of you to do, to ruin a phrase like that.
I have had this exact issue with that frozen music. You are essentially done. Years later i still recall that music.
just let it go
Brutal…
I just wanted to watch the chicken jockey scene for closure.

Tom Cardy, one of the best musical comedians of our age. He has many songs with extremely catchy lines that are actually funny while also being tolerable to hear many times over. There is a definite need for a language warning if you are not good with swearing, but his Lord of the Rings one is amazing.
Perception Check is my favorite but wow so many f bombs.
Naughty of nice is great too, and HYCYBH is amazing
Idk about kids singing HYCYBH…
I could imagine them using it on a teacher in class.
Teacher: “… Where is my board eraser”
Child: “HYCYBH?”
Teacher: Calls parents.Yeah, they would definitely repeat it at inopportune times, but what is life if not opportunities for comedy?
As a parent I’d externally be ashamed and blame brainrot.
Internally I’d be absolutely dying at the scene.
On the drive home I’d take it as an opportunity to teach the child about target audience.Its actually a good chance to teach about right place and time. Some people don’t know you can’t teach coworkers as “buddies” because then HR gets involved.
Yeah, honestly having kids around and watching them learn things like target audience and how to not blindly repeat stuff they hear is great, making it more fun and chaotic is awesome
Sing it back to them
Steady now, my generation got through the Macarena, you’ll get through this. Nice deep breaths… in… out…
And MmmBop (which tbh hits these days in a very sad sad way)
In a mmmbop it really is gone
- Ignore it, if there’s no reaction the novelty will wear off
- sing along, but change the words to something even more stupid so that the kid doesn’t like the song any more (I don’t know the song and won’t look it up, but I’m sure you can figure it out)
Start singing baby shark song, or what did the fox say. Expand his
repetuarrepertoire.Edit: Dino spelling
Repetaur sounds like a great fictional dinosaur to add to my son’s repertoire.
Lol, thanks I needed to confirm that dinosaur name
Get back at them by singing Peaches from the Mario Bros movie. You know, Jack Black and all that.
RIP
Have them watch too many cooks.
It takes a lot to make a stew
A pinch of salt and laughter too
Oh shit… I don’t think he’s ready for that level of weird…
Hah, now I just want to know what he’d think of it.
There’s always John Daker:
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
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.
Play him the meow mix song. It’s the alpha predator of ear worms.
