You technically already used that same argument, instead this time you just implemented a jack-in-the-box instead of another food. We could discuss these kinds of metaphors all day and the conversation wouldn't get anywhere.

Also, I came back here because I'm kind of bored,
Seems you are placing blame, by saying it is the listener's fault and the dj's fault, which implies responsibility for wrongdoing if they get tired of a song. What I was saying is that there is no wrong doing on part of the listener. It's just part of human nature. What I am taking into account is that people are emotional beings; they don't sustain the same emotion for long periods of time, and often switch from one for different reasons. Just to be clear the potato chip and the jack-in-the-box are not metaphors of a song, but examples of how things change from repetition over time and through experience.
