I feel super called out by the water bottle graveyard in the backseat, the way too many tabs in a browser window, and the non-stop song stuck in my head.
I wake up with a song stuck in my head, and it will progress to another song, and another.. all day long.
@Wretched Well for me, when I'm in a discord and gaming? Someone will say something that's part of a lyric - and off I go. My best gaming pals are so used to me just bursting into random bits of songs.
@Wretched The making sounds, humming, narrating. - I STILL DO THIS, all the FREAKING time. But when it's the worst? When I have to do training over Zoom for new people on the team.
Or at least I keep noticing it then.
Gods, I love not feeling along with all these things I do. 
y'all
@Wretched Yeah. First world problems came up as a phrase, and I started head bobbing to the Weird Al song in my head, and told my boss I hated her for getting it stuck.
Chuck Yeager. First guy to fly faster than the speed of sound, 97.
One of my first heroes.
So if you hear a boom tonight, that's just Chuck breaking the sound barrier one last time.

I am no longer allowed to intentionally message my boss to make her laugh while she is in another meeting.
Reminds me of that list, the "Scrappy is no longer allowed to..." or whatever it was. >.>
The 213 things Skippy is no longer allowed to do in the US Army
(I think of this list often.)
I had a large chunk of this list memorized when I was with an Army NCO/IC. But the one I will always remember is not singing 'High Speed Dirt' during Airborne missions.
@zombiegenesis "Oh please, that doesn't even sound like him, the President's an idiot, and you don't sound like an idiot."
@ganymede <.< >.> ... I may have called FHA.
We were playing a game, for work. Big boss decides to email, versus just verbally ask, and the questions were "Who was the lead in..." and then a list of christmas movies to list with the names of actors to match them.
I'm going through the list, and I'm like ... Wonderful life? Jimmy's not on the list!
Etc., etc.
So I Video skype called the big boss, ... and she messed up the sheet. She cut off part of it somehow. -- I had been late opening the email, working on something. So other people had to know, and just... didn't say anything. And yes, this is for a prize.
@too-old-for-this Oh so much of this. I LOVE buying things for other people. I was suuuper anxious for my co-worker to open her present at the zoom party yesterday. I wanted her to like it sooooo bad.
I have bookmarked things. But I still don't have the motivation to make the thing.
@snackness is he a german shep/boxer mix, or something?
@cobaltasaurus OOOOOOOOOH my god. Sooooo damned cute.
Falling back in love with a band you burned out on years ago. It's nice.
ETA: Laughing when I realize the album I am listening to for the first time in ages, was the car trip soundtrack for the time period mentioned in the Maine thread with @insomniac7809
@waller This makes me oddly sad. I loved those bad, horribly done dance movies.
Why would you not let the pupper on the couch/bed? They want to be with you, and pup cuddles are the best.
My 75 lb dog wants cuddles and lap time - all the time. It can be hard to work when he's trying to get into my lap, and his huge noggin is between me and the screen.
@cobaltasaurus I've sometimes been working with dogs that don't respond to No! or OW!, either. I've sometimes had success in those instances with a lower, almost Buzzer on a game show when you give the wrong sound.
