Notice: This may create an earworm

Some people just don't know how to implant an earworm.

Quite the earworm. This was stuck in my brain for most of last night, and misery loves company. *promote

Fair enough.

The one point I'd contest is that if someone is to dig their heels in upon receiving (arguably smug) contradictory remarks, I don't think that necessary indicates that they'd vote for Trump no matter what.

When you attack someone's belief that they've had for years and probably decades (i.e., their identity), it is painful and difficult to change one's belief.

A question I like to ask people who say things like what you said is, "When's the last time you admitted being incorrect to a long-held belief?" We've all been confronted with this, but how many times were you able to change your identity?

For instance, "Are you an animal-lover?" and then, the obvious vegan query, "Then why do you eat animals?" There's a pretty strong moral case for not eating animals and I would argue that it's a case that time will show to be both true and moral. I believe (assuming humans survive) humans will look upon this time of killing billions of animals for nothing but human pleasure with disgusting disgrace.

You could say that I, looking upon meat eaters, feel the same way you feel about Bob, at least in some ways.

The question is, "How does it feel? How easily are you able to change your long-held beliefs when (from my perspective) you're on the wrong side of history?" Do you find yourself recoiling? If someone came at you with not only the question, but says it in a self-congratulatory, condescending way, would you respond to that well? I wouldn't. I'd tell you to fuck off.

Give someone the facts clearly and without prejudice, and you can at least plant an earworm for them to digest later.

If you are vegan, I gotta come up with another example.

Talk about an earworm...

I hope the movie authors/producers credit the guys who came up with the Earworm concept, the video mentioned the Beatles directly.

I guess Earworm missed someone...

I've found all of these Earworm videos to be excellent. No exception here.

Now I have a new *quality earworm!

Anyone have an earworm yet?

Mad World has been my earworm for the past few days *promote

Can't Touch This is my most recurring 'earworm' *promote positivity in the face of adversity [do do do do]

Once upon a time I had an ABBA earworm. I cought myself humming Dancing Queen at the supermarket checkout. That's when I knew I had a serious problem.

*promote A banner day for THE most diligent and deserving Sifter on the entire site! Thank you @eric3579 for all you've done for me personally over my time here. I most certainly wouldn't have lasted past the first few tumultuous, trial by fire, weeks without your kindness and support. The fact that you continue to play a big part in my enjoyment is much appreciated and loved. Just like YOU my friend

Astoundingly catchy song parody @dag ... an earworm for sure. Certainly Tommy Heath would be flattered. And the Chris Murphy badge, as always, is to die for!
