that was traumatizing

[meganbmoore]

In the breakroom earlier, they were playing some commercial that involved either nicotine patches or cigarettes or something.  I wasn't really paying attention, until this one person said that you shouldn't have too much nicotine, just the MAGICAL AMOUNT.  And when he said that, there were suddenly all these animated magical creatures singing and talking about the magical amount of nicotine...and then they poofed and the humans went about their business, talking about the magical amount of nicotine.

It was bizarre.

And scary.

I may have had saucer eyes.

Meanwhile, the most interesting thing going on here today is that the heater was turned on way too high when we got here and we felt like we were suffocating.

I have never smoked, but now I wonder if I should try nicotine patches anyway. Because it might be kind of cool to hallucinate animated magical creatures.

Nnnnnooooooo....it was scary.

And I was trying to eat...

Now, if that had been a commercial in Japan, it would have been considered a normal commercial and you'd have gone on normally with your life.

Yet, dramas, anime and manga don't scare me...

Normally...

It's just not something you're expecting to see on normal American television, so your mind doesn't have its natural defenses up to block against the trauma.

Much less bizarre the second time through.
