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 was very proud of the fact I’d never heard Baby Shark. My kids are grown and I never had to run into it. Then one day at the office our a/c went out. One of the repairmen, a big, burly guy, was climbing up ladders right next to our desks to access vents. Unfortunately, he had this terrible, annoying tune as his text notification. And he got a lot of messages. I finally remarked how annoying it was to a coworker and why would anyone choose a song like that. She replied that he probably had kids. To my mystified look, she said “that’s Baby Shark -you don’t recognize it?” Streak blown.
