The theme today is that of repetitiveness. "What?" Repetitiveness. All of these links have a song/video that repeats over and over again, making for a fun (and sometimes mind-numbingly fun) experience. Let's take a gander, shall we?
1. Badger Badger Badger - Ahhhh, a classic. When there are any sound
issues on my computer, or if I can't tell if sound is working on a particular web address, I'll go to this site to test my speakers. It's a reliable sound source - I always know there will be sound here. The URL is pretty easy to remember, too.
2. Independent Woman Cats - We listened to this website for a full work day one time as an experiment. It actually wasn't as annoying as it sounds. I actually tuned it out after a while and it blended into the background noise.
3. Magical Trevor and Magical Trevor 2 - Both similar in theme (the theme = randomness), these videos have catchy tunes that get stuck in my head quite easily. Kids get a kick out of this one.
4. The Llama Song - This may be the most annoying song on here to others, it's high-pitched, repetitive and odd-sounding, but I love it. Yes, I have this one memorized and have found myself singing it absentmindedly, on occasion.
5. Only in Kenya - If I'm ever put on the advertising account for Kenya Tourism, this WILL be the slogan/song I use. Because, let's face it, some things ONLY happen in Kenya.
So there's my "Sidebar Spotlight." It was a fun little trip down memory lane for me and I hope it was a magical journey for you as well. I challenge you, faithful readers, to listen to each one of these songs at least three times through - they grow on you.
Word of Caution: I wouldn't do this all in one sitting, though. That could drive a person crazy and cause them to be a menace to society.

Whoa, I was all "I guess Jeff has changed career directions to pursue his music...and he's aged 30 years."
Oh, the badgers. I love them so.
zombo.com!!
do it
zombo.com is awesome! I debated whether I should put it on this post, but I decided it does end, eventually, so it didn't fit the theme of infinity.
And the years have been kind to jeff, la_sale_bete.
I think my study of your post had afforded me one tidbit of information worth sharing:
This is very UK
repetition
random
accents (is it really fair to say that the mother tongue has an accent- it's really us who have an accent, no?)
UK or UK transplants

Interesting, shelly. And here I thought I didn't get British humor. And thanks for the scampi link. That may make the sidebar one day.
