What up with that

Ever since last November when we first watched SNL skit "What Up With That", the line's been stuck in Delta's head. Stuck so prominently, infact, that it's been his predominant response to pretty much anything I said.
From an innocuous comment about the weather ("crap its raining again!") to anything as serious as a relationship conversation ("Delta, we need to talk,"), Delta employed a uniform response.
He would burst into a jig and announce, "What up with that?!"

Today, I reached the end of my tether.
"Delta, I'm imposing a one week moratorium on the phrase. You're not allowed to say "what up with that" for at least a week, ok?!"
"But it's stuck in my head!" Delta whined. "I have to let it out!"

And so it got us wondering whether other people have this song stuck in their heads too. And oh dear. Oh, dear. SNL, what have you done.
