I absolutely HATE the KarsforKids jingle. I will run across a room faster than a speeding bullet to shut the radio if I sense it's about to begin. Now it's playing in my head on a constant endless loop. I'm having a hard time maintaining the appropriate level of fury at an amother who calls herself "Rutabaga" (how can you be angry at a rutabaga?). I just wanted to let you know, Rutabaga, that you've ruined my evening.
If anyone knows how to get that jingle OUT OF MY BRAIN, please post immediately. |
Hahahaha that really made me laugh out loud! Researchers suggest standing on a soapbox on 13th ave and singing it at the top of your lungs. (If any men are present, feel free to put a fishbowl over your head first.)

Isn't it amazing how Kars4 Kids had never updated their jingle?

Thats a 6 word word. Perhaps there is no such word. Thanks anway.
I dont think a six year old defines it well. Not all six- year-olds have phongraphic memory and not everyone with phonographic memory is six years old.

Does anyone remember the "Dr. Shapiro, Hair Institute" jingle that used to play on the radio over and over ad nauseum?

Thank you Boca! (I guess I should forget about the possibility I'll find shidduchim for my kids after this?)
And your deepest apologies are accepted, Rutabaga. (rutabaga??)

Whoever can't accept your kids because their mother followed sound scientific advice proven to cure a malady doesn't DESERVE your little angels.

The Sound of Silence. It can play softly in the background of my mind for days in a row.
I don't know the kars-for-kids jingle and now I'm terrified to hear it! Is there a term for earwormphobia?

Omg! Yes I forgot to add the Sound of Silence. I guess some people do share the same earworms after all.
If there isn't the term yet, there should be.

On WABC in NY some of the talk show hosts have comical discussions about how dreadful the kars4kids jingle is. It's funny because as soon as it started to play my toddlers would get all excited sing along and dance to that jingle. I believe it's one of Uncle Moishys tunes .

On numerous occasions I've burst into song together with someone else, both of us singing the same song and starting from the exact same point in the song. Whether it's an airborne earworm infection, telepathy, the power of suggestion that worked on both of us, or mere coincidence, is a matter for scientific scrutiny.

Hmm.. Zaq, you gonna weigh in on this? Cuz here's Exhibit A that earworms are contagious by telepathy.

The plural of anecdote is not data.
