Update: friend has now listened to the Tchaikovsky and is going, "I wasn't sure what you were on about, but now, at eight minutes in, I suddenly understand. D: "
real talk tho, I will occasionally just start whistling and it will be PART OF THAT PIECE.
it is DISTURBING.
friggin' Tchaikovsky, infecting people with earworms from BEYOND THE GRAVE

@hafnia i feel like at this point you're on the edge of just rehashing the pachelbel rant with tchaikovsky
@autistikai I think a lot of the Pachelbel rant was about how boring it is to play, though! Tchaikovsky is a lot of things, but it's not that. :)
@hafnia i remember it starting off as "this is boring to play" and then immediately going off into "i hear it everywhere i cannot escape this no matter what i do"
@autistikai THERE IS NO ESCAPE :D
@hafnia i do that sometimes, but i'm usually too distracted by the symphonies stuck in my head to comment
@autistikai must be nice to have that as a superpower! :) I can't NOT hear music...it drives a few of my friends nuts, 'cos I'll stop whatever I'm doing and be like, "that store is playing [SONG]!" my hearing is otherwise shot, so that's always funny, heh.
