People are looking up their quarantine theme songs and the results are hilarious
A new quarantine song game trending on Twitter has grabbed the attention of almost every bored-out-of-their-mind netizen.
This new reality that we're in—one with plenty of time on our hands and nothing much to do with it—has left us enthusiastically grabbing on to any form of entertainment we come across. Since there are only so many hours one can Netflix in a day before their brain melts into a puddle, we're all on a perpetual quest to find new ways to stimulate our drowsy minds. Although there's an endless supply of audiobooks/ebooks and video tutorials for everything from 'how to make jam' to 'how to build a rocket' online, netizens live for the simple pleasures such as figuring out what their quarantine theme song would be.
A new quarantine song game trending on Twitter has grabbed the attention of almost every bored-out-of-their-mind netizen. After all, it has all the makings of the perfect internet bait. It's simple, personal, relatable, and hilarious. All you have to do is figure out when you celebrated your 12th birthday and find out which song was number one on the charts on that date. With the game opening up endless possibilities, the results of the quarantine theme song hunt range from rib-tickling to "oh, that got real dark real soon."
People who matched with the likes of R.E.M.'s "It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)" and Boyz II Men's " End Of The Road" aren't exactly hopping up and down with joy.

Haha a very fitting Sinead O Connor song, and as it happens “it’s be 7 hours and 15 days”

Looks like I’m gonna be Vogue-ing all quarantine (although I may have to add some ‘Birdhouse in your Soul’ to the mix too now I’ve been reminded of the charts for that year 😂😍) thanks @officialcharts #QuarentineThemeSong pic.twitter.com/W9Uc3GujeU
