Son goes crazy in a good way or bad way?

Like I can imagine a 4 year old going wild with excitement cause the parents are home. Or a 14 year old cringing hard

16 year old rapidly putting their dick away

I mean it's honestly not a bad idea in general to announce your presence unless you're specifically trying to surprise people.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 3 months ago

I pictured the first, but the cringing teenager is funny too.

I have this set up automatically with our smart speaker thing. Whenever it detects someone arriving at home, it plays a jingle from a playlist I set up for the purpose. They are all short - I think the longest is about 30s. They are intros from TV shows and jingles from videogames.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago

Ok, I need to copy this.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Please elaborate, what do you use for this?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

The “Shortcuts” app for iPhone. Not sure what the Android equivalent is.

this is so easily what I'd make mine

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

I genuinely didn't recognize what song you were referring to because the "some" was not stretched and "body" was not emphasized 😂

[–] [email protected] 44 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Add a smoke machine and some fireworks and every time you come home it's like walking into a WWE ring

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

flicker some smart lights too

But without the thinly-veiled gay porn?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yes, I only allow totally unveiled gay porn in my home.

'Imperial March' just before arriving would be awesome

That took me a minute. I read "house speaker" as Mike Johnson.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I don't know what he does in his spare time, so maybe?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Gotta have something to do when he's not monitoring his son's porn browsing

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Ugh I really wish I could unlearn this fact.

Cues up "What New PussyCat?" by Tom Jones

......

BWAH BWAH BWAH BWAH

WHAT'S NEW PUSSYCAT

WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But 21 times before you come in, with another song thrown in about 12 or so in just to confuse them

The Rocky Theme would be my choice, maybe the original Hawaii 5-0.

My dogs would fucking love this. They love when we play music in general, and would totally get excited for a dedicated "daddy's home!" Song

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago (4 children)

I would absolutely take mine from pro wrestling. Mine would either be "Here Comes the Money" by Naughty by Nature or the entrance music for Road Dogg

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

"Bah gawd, that's daddy's music!"

I can't help but imagine the son doing tippy taps like my dog does whenever I get back from work 😂

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

My kids used to go crazy when I would get home from work. Cherished memories.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I would definitely play the Seinfeld intro theme. Slap bass intensifies

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Gotta have the audience cheer when you enter too. I would just have a sitcom soundboard ready for the full effect.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

"This is the worst case of intronitis I've ever seen. You can even hear the theme music."

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

My family does this!

Every time my son hears the first couple lines of "boats and ho's" he goes nuts.

No idea why another dude always walks in at the same time as the music's going, but they've assured me he's just the plumber doing regularly everyday maintenance and the theme song is for me.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

Depends on what song, like, girls want to have fun is a great song for your mum to make an entrance with, peaches - fuck the pain away is a different story.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sometimes when I get out of bed and I can hear my partner and kids doing stuff, I’ll walk out playing Sirius or Gonna Fly Now loudly on my phone.

Usually my 3 year old daughter will be like “Dad, we’re doing THIS now!”

When he's older, you'll have him conditioned and can just play your intro at any tume to watch him get confused. Won't work for long, but those first few times will be golden.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm gonna try this with The Final Countdown. My spouse is a huge Arrested Development fan.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Ah, one of my favorite numbers to sing to my limited captive audience. ITS THE FINAL CAT MEOWWWW

Full album will be available spring 2026. Requests welcome.

I used to play the Beatles' "Here Comes the S[o]n" on the speakers downstairs when I brought our first child downstairs after naps. My wife thought it was funny the first time, but after that it was all like "please don't stop my playlist for your pun" and I'm like "it's a literal dad joke!"

Now that son is old enough to start his own music and I totally get it. "Hey, I was listening to that!"

Looking over the responses, I'm surprised no one said they'd play "Never gonna give you up." by Rick Astley. I say why not rickroll your family whenever you get back home.
