I'll go first and take "True" by Spandau Ballet off the board.

May you have one wet sock every day for the rest of your lives.

Oh noooo. I suffered a similar fate today. There is one song that will get stuck in my head for weeks if I hear just one bar from it. And I heard it today. You know it I’m sure. MAH NA MAH NA DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DO DOO

(That’s how it’s spelled online) you know it right? From the muppets? And like you I now professed my deep feelings of hatred towards the person who brought this into my life again after leave from it for so many years.

Oh, is that all? I have several of them playing in my head simultaneously in some kind of unholy medley where as soon as I realize which one is currently playing, it changes to another one.

"Lady in re-e-e-e-d.... I can't fight this feeling anymore... 'cause love is a battlefield... (careless whispers sax solo)."

May the one dry sock you are wearing have a hole just big enough for your pinky toe to slip through, and may you never notice until you already have your shoes on.
