It's the old "woodpecker pecking at your head" thing.

Constant repetitive comments and questions over and over and over.

At least you made it to the bathroom. A good way to start the day.

OMG, Sher, now that you've said that I'll never be able to look at Groundhogs day the same way again and it used to be one of my favorite movies, lol
