Mine was "Magic" by Olivia Newton John. Sounds like it set the mood just fine.

We're rounding to make counting backwards easy so more people can easily participate.
This can't be so difficult to do with weeks if you really want to be accurate. But if you don't want to be accurate, of course there's that option too. I'm only spreading awareness. ๐ I'm not trying to die on this hill or anything...
It's about ease of use.
I can count on fingers how many months. Tales 10 seconds.
Count 40 weeks back from your birthday with no help in 10 seconds or less.
My guy, my tip is for people who want to be accurate. People like that usually have the means to figure out how to Google "date calculator".
I get what you're saying, but you and I have different target demographics I guess, and that's fine, but let's let that be the end of it, shall we? ๐ Like I said, this isn't such a big deal to be having this deep of a discussion about it.
Don't take my tip as a personal criticism against your character. It isn't one.
For the record, I figured out which week is 40 weeks ahead of my birthday in about 20 seconds using just my head. It doesn't have to be difficult.
That's a lot of words to say you failed the 10 second ask, and that you can't accept that this is a pointless shitpost.
Do your own 40 week and 9 month count, and I ask, are they the same song? Because mine is. That song was a #1 for 5 weeks. It covers both options, and that might well happen for most people.
It's just a fun diversion.
You really chopping me up on 10 seconds versus 20? Yo.
Go ahead and die on this shitpost hill, bro. I'm dipping. ๐ Pregnancy is 40 weeks is all I'm saying. Have a good one.
I made this hill of shit. And, if need be, I shall die here.
Fair thee well, stranger!
10 seconds versus 20 was cringe though, seriously. Find better arguments. ๐
Count 3 months forward and subtract a year :-).
