Don't Hug me I'm Scared!

My friend showed me this Youtube video the other day. Omg. If you haven't seen it click play above.

Now that you've seen it, I'll share my reactions. At first I was like "What the crap is this?" And then it got dark and scary and creepy. Like really fast. And then I got scared. Like really fast.

I actually like it though. The song is catchy and I have been singing "I can see a hat! I can see a cat! I can see  a man with a baseball bat!" All the time at school. Then I googled it and found out the true meaning.

The whole video is to show how media, like children's shows, are saying they teach children creativity when all they do is make them think how they want them to think. That's why "green is not a creative color" because it wasn't on the notebook's color wheel of the notebook's favorite colors. She only wanted them to choose what she approved of. And also when the puppet made the clown drawing, the notebook put black ink on it, and it was something truly original and creative! Also with the clouds, at first the puppets don't see anything, but then the notebook put the monocle over her eye, and they all saw shapes. They saw what she wanted them to! Then the whole creepy/dark/scary stuff is to show how they kill creativity.

Deep stuff right? Then again it could just be a video someone made to freak people out.

What do you think?
