Television: Awakening The Reptile Mind

OMG, it's disclosure then!



I knew it! The reptilians want to rot our brains and make us like them!

...Shutup, you tinfoilers.

Also to add, this article (from August 2008 btw), goes onto say that the left brain is "tuned off" during TV viewing. So.... all us right-brain dominate people are inferior beings?

hmmm... now that I think about it. When I watch TV or play video games for a long period of time I sometimes spontaneously get aroused for seemingly no reason. Maybe Im just lonely.

So watching TV stimulates the right side of the brain? Like meditation? Hmmm... Oh wow. Watching TV in a meditative state... now thats some good BRAIN WASHING potential!

Wow. I dont usually watch TV that much, but now Im going to refrain from it as much as possible... And I really should lay off the computer for awhile. Im getting pale.

Okay, so someone finally noticed that. Has anyone noticed:

In 1969 researcher Herbert Krugman decided to understand what happens to the brain while watching television.

Breaking news this is not.

Personally, I thought it went without saying. The myth that TV rots your brain started as far back as then.

Yeah though we still forget at times and seem to stare blankly at those
Square Cubes even despite the left side of the brain trying to protest at it all.
