My child won't stop singing the "Lava Chicken" song from the Minecraft movie. How do I go on living?
-
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?
Go out for a pack of cigarettes, start over.

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.
Yeah but DuckTales is quality. So that's fine.

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.

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.
Yeah same. It was our first theater experience together and we had a blast. The movie is aggressively mediocre although it does have a few moments.

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.

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.

Brutal...

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.

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

Make it inhumanely cringe. Start calling everything lava chicken as a replacement for "cool", make lame ass Minecraft dad jokes at every opportunity, yell chicken jockey out the window to summon your spawn in public.

That is some damn fine dadding right there. I think this is a perfect plan.
Genuine question - why is that deemed a good answer? I'd expect an actual solution for a child to be more apropriate than humiliating an adult later in life. Like the suggestions telling to start singing it yourself, wrongly, seem much more effective and appropriate to me.
Full disclosure tho: Not a parent and no plans to ever be one

wrote last edited by [email protected]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.

Have them watch too many cooks.

He has a set of shark PJs, and whenever he wears them I sing [his name] shark do do do do do...
And he immediately responds "STOOOOP DAD! PLEASE! I ALREADY TOLD YOU BEFORE!"
And I'll never stop doing it
We have a no baby shark rule, my daughter hasn't latched onto it yet. Whenever it comes on Spotify skip it but sometimes I start singing along before I realize what I'm doing.
