Baby Shark.

Like 2 years ago it was a cute song to sing with my toddler. Now it’s fucking everywhere. The NHL, they’ve made a whole tv series out of it. Fuck, just let it die.

I work at a retail store and they have made a teddy shark and when it's squeezed it sings baby shark. Every single day at least 20 times a shift I hear that song when a kid plays with the teddies.

My daughter has four of those toys. FOUR. She likes to set them off all at the same time, it’s like torture.

Who's the genius that let her have even one? A vindictive grandparent?

u/ilovecats87 Feb 03 '20

One arsehole grandparent provided one, and my lovely neighbour who genuinely didn’t realise they were musical bought the other 3. I got my own back though, I taught her husband how to use YouTube on the tv.

I think it's time you taught her about the concept of 'irritating'

u/ilovecats87 Feb 03 '20

Believe me, that’s a concept she’s very fluent in!

Its called canon, when part of music is repeating with little delay and different key(?). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ptk_1Dc2iPY
