My child won't stop singing the "Lava Chicken" song from the Minecraft movie. How do I go on living?
Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I'd hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what's another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken?
Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?
Try switching to Parry Grip, some of it is OK and the catalogue is big enough they don't really get stuck.
And just to show solidarity the other day my kid just kept 'teenage mutant ninja turtles'ing for what felt like a half hour without a single 'heroes in a half shell' to round it off.
Not the answer you're looking for, but this reminded me of a short video I saw a long time ago where it was some kids being obnoxious ( as they're known for ) on a train and this man snaps and screams, in Chinese, "Shut up! I wanna die!" because of how tired he was.
Cannot find the clip when I search for it, but I think it's pretty funny. Nor do I remember where I saw it, but that specific little video thing has absolutely stuck with me.l ever since I saw it.
My partner and I used to switch between The Electric Slide and The Hustle as our earworms, so one day we mixed them together because it's the same tune. Now THAT is constantly stuck in our heads
All I'm saying is be careful with this approach for you may make a worse monster
Make it inhumanely cringe. Start calling everything lava chicken as a replacement for "cool", make lame ass Minecraft dad jokes at every opportunity, yell chicken jockey out the window to summon your spawn in public.
Genuine question - why is that deemed a good answer? I'd expect an actual solution for a child to be more apropriate than humiliating an adult later in life. Like the suggestions telling to start singing it yourself, wrongly, seem much more effective and appropriate to me.
Full disclosure tho: Not a parent and no plans to ever be one
I don't wanna sound old here, but I finally watched that thing a couple days ago and boy did I feel my age there. Clearly I've lived long enough that a whole movie failed to connect with me on any level. I mean it has Jack Black in it and I adore him. I guess what I'm saying is I have no idea how to fix your kid because they're a different people now.
However , the classic old group defense against young slang is taking it up and enthusiastically using it wrong. So enjoy your hot poultry song.
I put it on for myself(42) the other day it took all my will to not turn it off 3 mins in, I broke by 25 mins and turned it off. I then mocked my buddy who said it wasn't bad(he has 2 boys in prime Minecraft movie age).
I have an 18 month old girl with another on the way, not looking forward to whatever her equivalent frozen/Minecraft movie is. But I have also sung more wheels on the bus than I can stand.
I don't know why people dislike it so much other than the girl and her brother doing a terrible job at being relatable or authentic. I thought Jack Black and Jason Momoa did a great job and I'm not even a fan of Momoa.
I have yet to watch it but i assume there is very little to connect with if you don't?
Depending on how old your kids are and if you are not already playing, playing on a local server together is great family time and can provide situations for real bonding aswell as real world educational discussions.
Oh man, this was my history teacher's favorite song back in middle school. Used to play it in class every. day. I thought I got away from that song... And I did for 17 years...
Wow, you actually managed to find the other song I absolutely hate when he plays!
Our neighbor got him started with undertale and let me tell you... He is not good at it, and man does he get angry when he dies.
But his undertale tantrums are another story, for now let me just express how tired I am of hearing the undertake soundtrack which he plays on loop, especially megalovania!
You know I played that game once, I thought it did some clever things, but never again... That boy has ruined it for me.
We have a no baby shark rule, my daughter hasn't latched onto it yet. Whenever it comes on Spotify skip it but sometimes I start singing along before I realize what I'm doing.
I mean really, who in their right mind would even consider that? Personally I can't even imagine just wasting a perfectly good pencil. Please be a responsible adult and use a fork instead (in case you can't fit the fork into your ear canal you might wanna widen it with a spoon first. Btw. spoons are the goto in case your ability to see is bothering you too)
Depending on your childs age and your bond maybe just tell them you don't like the song? Might just work for some children, if they're able to empathize with you (should be doable for most. Empathy can be taught!)
Noise canceling earbuds/a headset might be an option too (for you, or your child. Doesn't really matter)
