PuppyKnob presents Habit Patterns (video link)

[dogknob]

Thousands of years ago TV executives, with the help of some very helpful folks from the psychiatric industry, made the greatest discovery ever; television could be transformed from a mere humdrum artistic and informational medium into the biggest cash cow in world history. TV's power could be used to strip people of their self-esteem and convert them into neurotic, insecure, self-hating, conformist consumers.

Today, the GOP, along with corporations like Comcast are trying to do the same thing with that pesky little nuisance known as the Internet... because real public discussion is not profitable :( It results in stuff like a black President, healthcare reform, and other forms of real grassroots organizing that scares them to death.

Poor Barbara. She oversleeps; throws on clothes she wore on her date with Bill Clinton; dodges her 6-foot tall, alcoholic penguin friend in order to (literally) wolf down some breakfast; then dashes off to school. There she twitches, rambles, and stumbles through a series of attempts to fit in. Meanwhile, her "normal" neighbor Helen wanders gleefully through her normal life with her normal parents and normal friends before returning home to her normal bed to dream normal dreams.

PuppyKnob presents a little gem from a not-so-by-gone era. This short teaches teenage girls that if they don't all act exactly the same, no one will love them. So stick on a Mazzy Star CD, pop a few dozen Seconals, kick back with a fifth o' Jack and enjoy the conformity :P
