Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

This is totally off Q, but hopefully permitted here :)
I heard this song playing in a grocery store a few weeks ago. It was pretty catchy. I kept hearing the tagline as "We're up for Mexican ducky" :) I tried to find out what the song was; trying AI with that phrase, since I had no clue who did the song or what the actual lyrics were. The AI didn't help. Tonight I was checking out what movies were available on the Peacock streaming service, and the lego movie of Pharrel Williams was listed, so I clicked on it to watch the preview, and then a short song clip played, and I thought "I think that's that Mexican ducky song!". So then I went back to the X AI (Grok) and asked what Pharrel Williams song has lyrics that sound like "We're up for Mexican ducky", and this song was listed. AI showing its true potential :)
Go to the middle of the track (at 2:10), and I defy you not to hear "We're up for Mexican ducky" as the lyrics :)

Oh, and yes, I'm pretty much doxing myself here, but I don't care :)
We're up all night to get lucky.
That's what I'm hearing at 2:10.
Listen to this at 0:21-0.22 and I think this may be what you're referring to (perhaps at a later point in the song you linked?). I put the speed down to .5 to hear it more clearly.

The "mexican" comes in pretty well on that short clip! (I guess they thought so too :) ) I heard the full song on the grocery store speakers, so it wasn't too clear, so my mind went to the "We're up for Mexican ducky" interpretation :)
Can't hear your words. I tried. But hey, I'm sure it happens to everyone sometimes.
I can't NOT hear it now that I pulled that song up :) Sort of like the Springsteen song where I hear "dead devil in the freeza'" :)
I wonder if he was making reference to bioweapons. "The Demon In The Freezer".
