Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I’d hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what’s another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken?
Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?
Mine has largely gotten over the lava chicken phase, and has moved on to the next incredibly annoying barely sentient compulsion.
Last I checked it was the intro to Ducktales. Have you shown them that? It’s so ruinously catchy it may never leave your mind.

Yep. He immediately dialed into it because Gravity Falls is an old favourite, and these shows share a good bit of DNA. I just like to hear Danny Pudi.
Duck Tales! Awoo-oo!
We might solve a mysteryyy… 😀
Or rewrite history! 😬
I might also humbly suggest the theme to TaleSpin, that one’s a beaut ☺️
Ha ha ha ha haha! Spin it!
That song never left my head and its been living rent free up there since I was a kid
Which one? (ꏿ﹏ꏿ;)
1987 version
Good year for animation, '87.
Start singing it with them. Do it sincerely. You’ll either kill their joy or you two will have a moment.
Or find a song they hate to constantly sing. Maybe some old person music like Hoobastank.
I have had this exact issue with that frozen music. You are essentially done. Years later i still recall that music.
Unleash the Crazy Frog. Or go nuclear with playing non-stop every single kitsch 70’s romantic songs on repeat—while singing them passionately.
It give’em an hour.

You… still want to keep contact with them, right? I mean, who will take care of you when you’re older?

I don’t wanna sound old here, but I finally watched that thing a couple days ago and boy did I feel my age there. Clearly I’ve lived long enough that a whole movie failed to connect with me on any level. I mean it has Jack Black in it and I adore him. I guess what I’m saying is I have no idea how to fix your kid because they’re a different people now.
However , the classic old group defense against young slang is taking it up and enthusiastically using it wrong. So enjoy your hot poultry song.
It is not a good movie, but my kids enjoyed it, so I got some vicarious pleasure out of the experience. I wouldn’t watch it on my own.
I don’t know why people dislike it so much other than the girl and her brother doing a terrible job at being relatable or authentic. I thought Jack Black and Jason Momoa did a great job and I’m not even a fan of Momoa.
Agreed. It was a fine example of a kid movie with kid actors. If you go in with low expectations, you probably won’t be disappointed.
I put it on for myself(42) the other day it took all my will to not turn it off 3 mins in, I broke by 25 mins and turned it off. I then mocked my buddy who said it wasn’t bad(he has 2 boys in prime Minecraft movie age).
I have an 18 month old girl with another on the way, not looking forward to whatever her equivalent frozen/Minecraft movie is. But I have also sung more wheels on the bus than I can stand.
I sat through a couple of the Paw Patrol movies when my guys were younger. It helps if you can find a way to appreciate them for what they are.
Or sleep. I slept through the Mario movie and I think that made it way better.
Do you play Minecraft?
I have yet to watch it but i assume there is very little to connect with if you don’t?
Depending on how old your kids are and if you are not already playing, playing on a local server together is great family time and can provide situations for real bonding aswell as real world educational discussions.
It has very little to connect with even if you do play minecraft. If you watch youtubers play minecraft, on the other hand, it’s probably perfect.
It’s basically a gen Alpha (maybe Z at a stretch) cringe comedy movie more than a minecraft movie. That’s mostly just the setting.
His uncle took him to see the movie (a real bullet dodged for me).
I saw the honest trailer for it and decided it was exactly as much of the movie as I needed to see.
I don’t wanna sound old here…
I got bad news for you, that’s basically all we’re doing right now.
Tell him or her that if it’s underground, it’s called magma rather than lava.
Haha, that’s a pretty good plan for whenever he does something annoying. Just “well actually” at him until he stops.
Start singing baby shark song, or what did the fox say. Expand his
repetuarrepertoire.Edit: Dino spelling
Repetaur sounds like a great fictional dinosaur to add to my son’s repertoire.
Lol, thanks I needed to confirm that dinosaur name
1.1B views……wow https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jofNR_WkoCE
RIP
See if they like “Yellow Submarine” and switch over to the Beatles?
Steady now, my generation got through the Macarena, you’ll get through this. Nice deep breaths… in… out…
And MmmBop (which tbh hits these days in a very sad sad way)
In a mmmbop it really is gone
Sink enough money into lava chicken paraphernalia for the child to instantly lose all interest in it.
Have them watch too many cooks.
It takes a lot to make a stew
A pinch of salt and laughter too
Oh shit… I don’t think he’s ready for that level of weird…
Hah, now I just want to know what he’d think of it.
There’s always John Daker:
La la la lava!
Ch ch ch chicken!
Steve’s Lava Chicken, yeah it’s tasty as hell
Ooh mamacita, now you’re ringin’ the bell!
Crispy and juicy, now you’re havin’ a snack

Tom Cardy, one of the best musical comedians of our age. He has many songs with extremely catchy lines that are actually funny while also being tolerable to hear many times over. There is a definite need for a language warning if you are not good with swearing, but his Lord of the Rings one is amazing.
Perception Check is my favorite but wow so many f bombs.
Naughty of nice is great too, and HYCYBH is amazing
Idk about kids singing HYCYBH…
I could imagine them using it on a teacher in class.
Teacher: “… Where is my board eraser”
Child: “HYCYBH?”
Teacher: Calls parents.Yeah, they would definitely repeat it at inopportune times, but what is life if not opportunities for comedy?
As a parent I’d externally be ashamed and blame brainrot.
Internally I’d be absolutely dying at the scene.
On the drive home I’d take it as an opportunity to teach the child about target audience.Its actually a good chance to teach about right place and time. Some people don’t know you can’t teach coworkers as “buddies” because then HR gets involved.
Yeah, honestly having kids around and watching them learn things like target audience and how to not blindly repeat stuff they hear is great, making it more fun and chaotic is awesome
Get back at them by singing Peaches from the Mario Bros movie. You know, Jack Black and all that.
