Most annoying thing in the entire universe

'As a balance and introduction to the real world I put on a Blue Planet episode showing real sharks and how they operate.
She was fascinated that a shark could be so big and would actually eat seals and other fish too!!'

Bambi Syndrome with teeth ?

Something like that.
I remember thinking when I was a munchkin how bad I felt for Bambi when his "mom" got plunked.

My dad, who grew up on a farm in Indiana during the depression gave me a rather direct bit of insight about what its like to be hungry and the reason Bambi's mom got whacked was, so some hungry kids my age would have something to eat.

Reality does a great job of turning the "emotional spin" inside out.
 
WHAT!!! Bambi's mommy got killed? My mom told me that she was at an extended church retreat. Where's the scotch!
 
So I "shared" the Baby Shark video with a friend of mine that just welcomed his first grandchild in September. He was shocked that such a thing existed. I had to promise him that I wouldn't expose little Toby to it in exchange for he not sending the Disney soundtrack to It's A Small World to my grandkids. I'm EXTREMELY sensitive to this as I was once on this ride when it became disabled for about a half an hour. I was in the French section for the whole miserable time. To make matters worse there were about 10-12 French Canadian middle schoolers also in our area and they started singing along. It was life altering. I don't much care for that ride anymore and I'm not too warm and fuzzy towards the French Canadians.
 
Disney World, Tower of Terror.
They take photos of your ride. They got a shot of me while I hurled into my hat with my kids laughing at me. I don't know the name of the song but every once in a while I hear it and have to sit down.
 
My favourite line:
It's the end do do do do do do
It's the end do do do do do do

I also object to the way that Grandma and Grandpa shark are portrayed as having no teeth!

I still have most of mine - apart from the now removed molar which had a root canal filling without anaesthetic or injection - my hand prints are still embedded in the dentist's chair from that one:eek:

i can only but ask WHY ? ( without anaesthetic or injection )
 
Just when I thought that Baby Shark had gone the way of The Macarena it roars back into my life as the centerpiece of an all new Arizona Diamondbacks promotional TV advertisement. 7:45am! Too early for scotch according to my wife. To make matters worse, my wife loves this song. What does her love of this song say about her choice of me as her husband? Hmmm.

I have never seen Baby Shark and I won't be looking for it. Thanks for the warning. I have a habit of changing TV channels whenever an advertisement appears. My reflexes are very good.
 
Baby Shark is a grandchild thing. Hard to ignore the cute little imps while they dance along to it. My wife considers it bad form if I only watch their video 5 times.
 
Eskasteve, you mentioned in an earlier post about a dance routine; perhaps if you & wifey did it in the nude it might have the desired response. Nothing puts grandkids off more than seeing old folks dangly bits.
