Second-hand listening

When you hear a piece of music not as a full-song but as a snippet being used in other mediums, such as for a meme, advertisement, movie scene, TikTok, etc.
"I just realized I know this song, even though I never directly listened to it or knew its name."

"Yes. That's called second-hand listening."

Don't fucking listen to them

Somebody told you not to say anything about this and YOUR KIDS DIED EXPLICITLY BECAUSE OF THAT DECISION. You need to un-make that decision.
Hym "I figured somebody would do something about THIS before anybody would, say, murder any kids but somebody told you not to say anything about this and of you don't I'm going to in the form of a child stabbing. Don't fucking listen to them. They already lead you astray. It isn't and WASN'T EVER GOING TO JUST BE ME. That's ISN'T an option and, just like living forever in paradise, the notion they sold to you that if I hadn't said anything it would have just been me is a lie and wishful thinking on their part."
