Here's what my office sounds like right now
It's bad enough when something goes through my head. It's worse when I play the 30 second song sample on Windows Media Player, which I've automatically set for repeat. It sounds something like this:
...Oh wee it felt so serious
Got me thinking just too much
I wanna set it off, but
It’s this 1 thing that’s got me trippin
It’s this 1 thing that’s got me trippin (you did)
This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
It’s this 1 thing you did oh oh
It’s this 1 thing that caught me slippin
It’s this 1 thing I want to admit it (you did)
This 1 thing and I was so with it
It’s this 1 thing you did oh oh
Hey, we don’t know each other well
so why I keep...Oh wee it felt so serious
Got me thinking just too much
I wanna set it off, but
It’s this 1 thing that’s got me trippin
It’s this 1 thing that’s got me trippin (you did)
This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
It’s this 1 thing you did oh oh
It’s this 1 thing that caught me slippin
It’s this 1 thing I want to admit it (you did)

Trust me, there's times when you don't want to be in a car with me.
I may or may not have told this story from my college days. When four of us lived off-campus (in a house we called The Burbs), I took advantage of an empty house and put my Devo "New Traditionalists" cassette into the stereo. I found the song "Going Under" and played it. Loud.
Then I played it again.
And again.
After playing it several times, I discovered that two of my housemates were upstairs the entire time. I felt bad. Sort of.
...Oh wee it felt so serious
Got me thinking just too much
I wanna set it off, but
It’s this 1 thing that’s got me trippin
It’s this 1 thing that’s got me trippin (you did)
This 1 thing my soul may be feeling
It’s this 1 thing you did oh oh
It’s this 1 thing that caught me slippin
It’s this 1 thing I want to admit it (you did)
This 1 thing and I was so with it
It’s this 1 thing you did oh oh
Hey, we don’t know each other well
so why I keep...Oh wee it felt so serious
Got me thinking just too much
I wanna set
I'll spare you the rest.
