animated animals....
Not all animated animals but two for now and I get the feeling its becomming a phobia. Anyway the first one I find creepy is that bear off the birds eye adverts. You know when someone opens their fridge to find a small bear with little eyes there who threatens to break their legs if they dont buy the correct peas next time. I mean I seem to be on a strange planet where no one else finds that just wrong. Its not even that part but the end when it cuts back to the bear who says something like "oh and dave.... buy that shit again and i'll cut ya.
Leading on from that, the misses has been watching old reruns of Bad Girls (the womans jail thing) and I have got into it a little as well. Anyway its sponsored by some pharmacy which has a huge cartoon owl wearing peoples cloths.... its starting to get to me.
Oh and to finish this little theropy session the single most creepy shit in the world was that television test card with the girl and creepy clown playing on a black board. Not just that but the constant "booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooop" noise just said to me "the clown wants to cut you up"..... creepy shit.

That test card
Used to be on just before Play School started (in the days when programming happened at peak times). I swear I once saw the little girl move.

Mrs No. 5 loves that bear.
I fully agree about the test card clown, evil chalky fucker threatening to abandon all programming and make everyone its mind slave to carry out whatever diabolical whim it could think of...like getting my mum to make me crab paste sandwiches to take to school.





Oh, and snarf81, don't forget to shut the door.

Growing up in the seventies
The test card was always sinister. Maybe it was just because it meant we had to wait for interesting TV.

Looking back I see that test card and am reminded of The Deer Hunter. It looks like the girl is being forced to play Russian Roulette noughts and crosses whilst the evil clown and balloon thing are gambling on the outcome . .

The bear is really creepy
the latest one where it has followed her to italy is scary as well. The woman has a proper look of fear
