Since today's one day event is dealing with 'ear worms' here's an article I just read on The Atlantic What Killed the Jingle?. Good article. I much prefer original jingles than some much loved song turned into a product selling tidbit. It's like a bit of your memories associated with music are being contorted and used to try to tell you something.

Making a lampshade hat classy....or attempting too...

I always thought this was sort of a "prideful" song, to say "My dog's better than your dog..." but it is a memorable jingle to both my husband and I.

I don't know how to post videos on here so you can see them. Here's the link if you want to hear this song. (Edit: thanks to thedabara, I was able to post the video. I'm so glad to know how to do this now!)

The other Oscar Meyer earworm (see Mistia's tuneful and catchy post) What is it with meat products and catchy jingles??
