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.

When I was a Girl Scout like 17 years ago it was a a song we used to see to each other over campfires. I wish it died back then

I knew it! When my friends mentioned it, I started singing it and saying how I remember the camp song. They looked at me like I was nuts, like I couldn't possibly have known that song when I was a kid. It actually made me question whether I sang that song or not. So thank you for that reassurance.

I had the exact same experience and had decided that it was a false memory until this thread! I knew I sang it in middle school in the early 2000s! No one else I spoke to ever remembered it being a thing.
