Phrases that, when you see them, you inexplicably start singing them to the melody of something else (and then will forever be associated with that)

I almost forgot this one, whenever I see Fujiya and Miyagi's name, I sing it to "Kokomo"

The word "alcoholism" always triggers "There's nothing wrong with alcoholism!" to the tune of Capitalism by Oingo Boingo. Which then usually gets followed up by "There's nothing wrong with drinking some wine."

Now when I step up in the place, ayo, I step correct...
U-HAUL! I got you all in check.

back at Christmastime, once I replaced "Feliz Navidad" with "Phylicia Rashad," there was no turning back.

whenever I'm watching Cheers for some reason I pretend the music that plays when they go to commercial is (to the tune of Elvis Costello's "No Dancing")

There's gonna be
Ted Danson
There's gonna be
Ted Danson
There's gonna be
Ted Danson, when we come back!

The word "hurting". It always, immediately, makes my mind shoot into "Hurting death is not for you I think you should choose life"... thank you jinglesource for forever ruining the word "hurting" for me.

You know that bit in 36 Chambers when Meth comes in and goes "M-E-T-H-O-D maaaaaaan"? I used to use that to memorise Dewey decimal codes of books when I worked in the library. 7-9-1.43 NOR. Still do it.

Pho restaurant called Pho Supreme brought to mind "a pho supreme.. a pho supreme.. a pho supreme"

whenever I see jamon on a menu I have to sing it like Michael Jackson, "jamon" or "shamone" or "chamone" or whatever it was he sang in Bad.

i bought a bottle of diet mountain dew today.

I just absent-mindedly sang "DEVON COUNTY COUNCIL" to the tune of "Everybody Dance Now" by C&C Music Factory.

hahahahahaha

Brilliant

whenever I hear "Dashboard" by Modest Mouse I just start barking like a dog, "arf! arf! arf!"

people named owen approve of devon county-related jokes

I used to sing the 'There was an old lady who swallowed a fly' to the tune of the Adams Family theme a LOT when I was a kid.

when i say oopsie daisy i sing it like "sherry baby"

"ooh-oohp-sie, oopsie DAISY"

you could even do the entire chorus if you were so inclined

browsing tv listings on my computer when all of a sudden in my head:

Used to have to reference non-domestic rateable values of properties in a past job and in my head it always became
What's the NDRV?
Aren't you Britney
Let's turn this dancefloor into our own little nasty thing

hahaha speaking of "property" --

MQC (mid-quarter convention for depreciating property)

I'm down with MQC
Yeah you know me

Hi dere. I can never find this thread when I need it. Now that it was recently revived I can't remember what I wanted to post.

"Shock top" beer for whatever reason makes me think "drag you out that bentley coupe and take it to the chop shop" from T.I.'s "what you know".

never gonna top ''i'm doin' laundry'' in terms of impact on my life, but still a great thread

billboard advertisement: Freeze your Fat Away as "Fuck the Pain Away" by Peaches

never gonna top ''i'm doin' laundry'' in terms of impact on my life...

Hahah...I was gonna post that. It never gets old.

Like everybody else, I am addicted to Candy Crush. And every time I start a new game, In Dreams by Roy Orbison pops into my head.

"A Candy Crushing clown they call the sandman…."

Korean fried chicken joint Bonchon leads to the following from soul coughing:

Move aside, and let the mango through
You gotta take the elevator to the mezzanine
Chicken Bonchon Chicken Bonchon Chicken Bonchon

this is maybe something different but every time I hear "Blurred Lines" all the lyrics from Flynt Flo$$y's "Did I Mention to Dance?" pop into my head. like I'm just singing "This beat is crazy baby, you can't be acting lazy" over and over again

I wore two pairs of gloves on the ride home the other night, and thought of "doublin' up on my gloves, yeah" to "do what you want to my body"

Oh word, there's other people who associate "I'm doin' laundry" with "Hunger Strike." That's kind of amazing.

A friend of mine used to sing "I got Tide for cleanin' threads" instead of whatever they sing.. "I don't mind stealin' bread."

Empty the Recycle Bin
Same old trip it was back then

Can never remember the title of this thread when I need it and can't remember why I was looking for it when it is revived.

at work we sell a cheese called "evalon" that i can't not say without going "ooooh-ooooooooh eh-vuh-laawhn"

the other day a midget carrying a large trash bag rode by on a bicycle and I thought of this thread and:

midget with a trash bag, I know, I know, it's serious

how often does the phrase "midget with a trash bag" pop up in your life

seeing "sour lean" in the dairy section at the store;

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d7/ShoulderLean.jpg

every time.

xp - now that i think of it, i think he was actually a dwarf, but that doesn't scan

though "dwarf with a trash bag" sounds great to "smoke on the water"......

holy shit!

Dwarf with a trash bag

Whenever I opt for cayenne in a recipe, Guided by Voices' "Cheyenne" is never far from my mind

A single glimpse of purity
In a flickering light
Cayenne seems right
