Ear worm etiquette

I have an ear worm. The question is, do I share the worm or keep it to myself?

I think sharing is the right thing to do, because who doesn't love a good ear worm? --I don't want to be the only one suffering, oh no 😈

Should I start playing the infernal racket beautiful music throughout the house, or have no wormy friends and keep it to myself?

If you have a DP you have to share it with them so you can both suffer/ "scratch the itch"...

Share.

I spent yesterday singing the Capybara song from TikTok.

My colleagues really enjoyed it. Probably.

When someone mentions ear worm, I automatically start singing, the Nolans, I'm in the mood for dancing..... until someone sedates me.
No one in my house knows that song I don't think, so it's a lonely place to be.

In our house the penalty for sharing an earworm is that someone starts singing Baby Shark or the theme tune to Something Special.

You're welcome....

I'm liking the sharing advice.

Perhaps I should share it with MN? Thousands of wormy friends 🤔

Oh. I don't like that.
