My wife was so enamored with the concept of little house hippos that I bought a few dozen little plastic hippos at a toy shop and hid them around the house. Peeking from behind books, on top of shelves, from under the dresser. For about two weeks I got to hear a little shriek of delight every time she found one.

Same! I remember I had Polly Pockets that I played with in the bathtub. I tied them up in hair clips and ritually drowned them, and I acted out the terror and futile escape attempts the remaining Polly Pockets went through when they saw their friends dying horribly. Their misery and fear only increased the closer they got to the edge, looking down on their friends limp corpses at the bottom of the tub, begging for help from an unforgiving universe. Their god was a 5 year old who did not care for their happiness.

Not Canadian, but I remember a PSA in an assembly where a girl named Crystal went to every kid in the neighborhood and asked if they wanted to play and every kid slammed the door in her face and I remember feeling SO BAD for her. Then the video revealed that her full name was crystal meth and you should never play with crystal meth. I don’t. I don’t why they thought getting a bunch of 9 year olds to sympathize with crystal meth was a good idea.

To this day I'm so glad I never found a hammer, and yes I looked around the house.

You should check out the British psa's from the early 2000's. They were like short horror movies, very graphic deaths. There was one about a little girl that gets hit by a car, it's about reducing speed and it sort of rewinds time and all her bones unbreak. It's really haunted me since I saw it as a kid...

Reminds me of a bullying psa we were shown in 6th grade in class where this little boy gets dropped on a toilet after some kids try to give him a swirlie and his skull cracks open and he dies.

No longer a girl, but as an autistic child I read about girls “chasing boys” during recess, and I took that literally.

When I was younger, I asked my dad when things stopped being black and white for him. He was so confused and asked what I meant. I continued with, "Yeah, did you just wake up one day and things were colorful?" It took him up until that point to realize I was referring to old black and white tv programs vs colored tv, and thinking the transition happened in real life like that, too. 🤦♀🤦♀(also funnier when you consider I had accidentally under-handedly called my dad old af, too 😂)

@Knolch 4 місяці тому
That´s the genius behind it, so kids enjoy them and remember them and show their friends. In Germany PSAs are about as entertaining or gripping as peeling potatoes. They go more for the very depressing and seem to be tailored more for the parents, like "Don´t let your children do X or Y" "Every year, X children die from X". Then some slow-mo grey and white footage of a kid doing something stupid. Sometimes a hospital bed with a kid full of tubes or even a child´s coffin back in the day. I guess the assumption is that children don´t watch unsupervised TV. Which happens to also be a PSA.
@ghostbee2371 Рік тому
as a child i remember thinking smoking was the most explicit thing ever, to the point where if someone was smoking i would immediately avert my eyes and walk away as fast as possible. one week in 8th grade, we had to watch these videos on how smoking was bad (they were all basically psas) and i literally couldn’t watch them as they made me so uncomfortable. to this day smoking still makes me very uncomfortable lol

Fun thing about Goosebumps! I read somewhere that R.L. Stine avoided anything bad in his stories that was real - stuff like broken homes or abuse - because he wanted to make sure that the kids knew it was all fake and that they were safe from the stuff in his books. Plus he kept humor very prevalent in his books so that it wasn't too scary! Take this with a grain of salt, I remember reading it but honestly it could have been a load of house hippos, lol.

Whenever Kurtis explains a joke, it's actually a joke itself. The punchline is that explaining jokes usually ruin them, so as a professional comedian, he's constantly ruining his jokes in an ironic way. Because it's ironic, the joke is not actually ruined, but instead trumped by the joke of explaining it.

I was wondering where the “House Hippo” thing came from. It’s been living rent free in my head since, I don’t know, 2006? Maybe? Never knew what it was, and though I didn’t think house hippos were real, I am more amazed it has been a core memory even though I saw it exactly once during the late hours of the night. After that, it mysteriously vanished from the lineup of Betty Crocker commercials, cleaning product infomercials and adverts for toys that sounded so much cooler than they actually were. Haven’t seen it since. At least not til this video dug it up for me, apparently.

In the UK in the mid to late 2000s there was an ad where it would show this child, dead on the road, bones all fucked up and there would be a voice over of the child saying "if you hit me at 40 there's an 80% chance I'll die, hit me at 30 and there's an 80% chance I'll live" and then the kids bones all crack into place, the blood goes back into the body and they wake up.

Now, we weren't alone, my older sister was in the other room but since I was in the living room with my brother, who couldn't be more that 6 months old, while he was having tummy time, I got to be BIG sister and "baby sit" my younger brother. When my mom came home, I was sitting on his butt/upper legs. When she asked what the h e l l I was doing I could only respond "You told me to babysit." There was a baby. So I sat. 25 years later, I'm still stupid as all get out sometimes.
