My friends, I come to tell the tale of the Great ST Turntable Earworm War of 2013. Hear me, so that these atrocities may not be repeated

It started like any normal day on Turntable. Playiung songs, having fun. Then,
I remarked on the earwormyness of Starships by Nicky Minaj, amoxy's selection.
He countered with the infamous Friday by Rebecca Black.
Naked earworm oneupmanship ensued. And as you might expect, this could only
lead to a bad place. At first, I busted out a couple of metal tracks to
withstand the insanity. But, this was futile. Amoxy the savage had the stones to play Yummy Yummy Yummy I've Got Love In My Tummy. Groiny's weapon jammed as he tried to play Oy, It's So Humid by 2 Live Jews and Turntable was having technical difficulties with that one.
Just as I decided I was beat and join in the earworm insanity, ty97 showed up while I was playing Icona Pop.
My friends, what ensued were acts of unspeakable brutality. Amoxy, groiny and I took our turns playing strange but earwormy tracks. Ty97 the Terribe dropped It's A Small World on our heads. Yes, in a gun fight, he brought the A-bomb.
My memory after this is hazy. I knew I had to take screen shots to bring as evidence to The Hague tribunal on war crimes. While groiny had to take off, the room took on a strange vibe which can only be described as postapocalyptic disorientation. Amoxy took his turns with Too Drunk To Fuck by the Dead Kennedys and Ren & Stimpy's Happy Happy Joy Joy Theme. I managed some Fatboy Slim and and a Party In The USA remix in which Miley sounds like a deep voiced R&B singer. Ty the Merciless laid into us with Bananaphone and I Love You, You Love Me, the Barney theme!
Finally, our wackiness was spent. The final volley in this madness wasCotton Eye Joe by Rednex, Who Let The Dogs Out and some Captain and Tenille.
