Found the internet!

Whenever I hear "$2.99" or a similar, my mind says, "Are you outta your mind?" Does anything stick with you like this 25-year-old Denny's commercial did in my case?

Yes. I have the same problem with "Pizza in the morning, Pizza in the evening..."

One that's always gets me is " WOW, that's a low price!!"

"NEW YORK CITY??!!" from the Pace Picante Sauce commercials.

Yep, not the initial "This stuff's made in New York City?" no... it's the follow-up "NEW YORK CITY??!!"

It's either OH-OH-OH-O'REILLY. AUTO PARTS. weird scream

My Bologna has a first name...

level 2

Yaaaaow is what that weird scream sounds like to me. Why are they screaming anyway? That is now officially back in my head. As is Oh, Oh, Oh Ozempic, you know.

level 2

I always yell AUTO FARTS and then raspberry. I'm 35.

level 1

The "4 bucks, 4 bucks, not for a million bucks, 4 bucks" Pizza Hut commercial is still in there, the JG Wentworth song, and the $5 footlong subway jingle

Someone says, "And now you know.."

My brain > "Cause it's Mike's Super-Short Show!"

level 2

And knowing is half the battle!

It was actually $1.99 in 1994. The new commercials are adjusted for inflation.

I am quite musical (can I say that from myself? Well, I will say it anyway XD) so some first words from songs bring up the whole song, even if they are spoken in a very different context...

Person: "The number is 1 800..."

My brain: "two six seven, two thousand and one! AlarmForce!"

level 2

Robert Stack on Unsolved Mysteries: 1-800-876- FIVE THREE, FIVE THREE. Scary.

level 1

I always say "pizza pizza" instead of "piece of pizza". People either don't notice or don't care.

level 2

I never knew there was a distinction.
