Someone in my social media orbit posted something about how the way to deal with pandemic isolation plus winter isolation is to "think like a Norwegian."
And of course we all went off on a long mental vacation singing that to the tune of "Walk Like an Egyptian."

A few years back I glimpsed a story on the news where the headline was “Bizarre Manspreading Assault” (presumably, per Google, this one), for some reason my brain immediately inserted that phrase into the scansion of Pete Townshend’s “Let My Love Open The Door”, and ever since I’ve found myself intermittently singing “bizarre manspreading assault” under my breath to the melody of the Townshend song entirely unprompted by any reminder of manspreading or “Let My Love Open The Door”’s existence.(I guess I could’ve posted that in this thread at any point since 2017 but this is the first time since then that an instance of the described phenomenon has lined up closely enough with a thread revive for me to a) Remember the thread’s existence and b) Not go “aww, man, I know this has happened to be before, I just can’t think of how or with what song.”)

Didn't the Windows icon for the top-level folder used to be 'My Computer'? I swear at some point it changed to 'This PC' without me noticing, because I've only recently caught myself unconsciously saying 'This PC be Warren G' when I open it.
