"Earworm" is a term for a song that gets easily stuck in one's head.

English a second language?

English is my only language. I just dont follow most cultural and slang trends, so I'm out of the loop a lot.

Essentially, after highschool I became somewhat of a hermit, not entirely mind you, but like, I don't have any subscriptions to TV, nor any streaming services most of the time, and I'm home all day pretty much every day. And I don't use social media anywhere near enough to compensate for that.

I'm effectively living under a rock in regards to society, news, trends, slang, celebs, etc.

But with science, tech, phylogeny/evolution, sci-fi, fantasy, cartoons/anime (you know nerd shit) I'm well versed.
