23. It's a bittersweet feeling hearing "No Such Thing" on the radio

[pompous_today]

... does anybody know of a good method for, ah, excising an earworm? I have had a rather embarrassing song stuck in my head for an entire day now and cannot get it out.

I am also truly sorry to the robbers I captured. It's nothing personal, you understand, just doing my duty as a cop-for-the-day. At least we are all free from it now?

A singin' earworm? Ya sure 'bout that?

[pompous_today]

"Earworm" is a euphemism for a song that you can't get out of your head.

[redhead_rabbit]

Well that's a silly thing to call it, yeah.

[pompous_today]

It does sound silly, admittedly, but it's fitting as well.

[redhead_rabbit]

I suppose a song gettin' stuck in your head could be blamed on some sorta ear worm.

[pompous_today]

Yes. It feels like the song burrows its way into your thoughts and won't leave.

[redhead_rabbit]

Oh yeah, I know how that feels.
