To those who want to know what Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared is about, allow me to explain. It is a
webisode series by
This Is It, a British group who create unique films like Bad Things That Could Happen. It centers on three puppets, a red hairy creature, a green duck, and a yellow puppet who always get these random teachers who teach, actually sing, a lesson.
The first time you see this, you'd think that this is a kid's show, but it is far from it. It is either 1:a parody about teachers who can't teach, 2: a show so horrific, it makes citizens of
Wonderland as though they are sane people who are complete saints, or 3: a show that could, and this is my theory, very well be an
allegory of how life was like in Germany during
Cold War, and let me tell you, it was anything but good.
To survive this colorful world of Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared, you must follow these rules....
1: Do not show anyone who is under the age of 16-18 this heinous realm.
2: If you watch any episode that contains food, do not eat close to or right after watching the episode. It is nauseating.
3: If you are still in High school/College, and have a teacher with a similar profession as one character, you must not watch the episode before class because then it will be very awkward.
4: Lastly but not least,
don't kill yourself...or better yet, if you are tempted to go insane, go to a therapist.
And remember kids, to stay in school!...OR NOT...
Example:
Don't Hug Me, I'm Scared is not something to take lightly, that it should not
