This and the wooosh with RATM’s music, have me thinking a lot of people experience media differently than I do. Just a series of unrelated pictures or sounds that make a feeling. These themes seem core to the show and presented fairly directly. Or I maybe watch too much TV and need to get outside more :)
I’ve got a friend that fast forwards through films and only plays the parts with fight scenes, car chases or explosions then he will tell people the film is shit if there’s not enough of them.
Conservatives are famously media illiterate. I honestly don’t get how a sentient being, much less one that pretends to be human, can be so intellectually vapid. Like, I’m lazy so i get not wanting to actively study even for stuff i am interested in (I’ll learn Japanese! one day.), but to be so disinterested in the things you actually do to enjoy?
A reminder that Paul Ryan, a GOP vice presidential candidate and former house speaker, claimed to like RATM before abandoning his support after getting a smackdown from Morello himself

I found out recently that there are people who will watch shows and just fast forward to the next scene if they get bored.
That sounds so sad.
This is true in the sense that illiterate people experience books differently than you do.
There are people out there that take TV commercials at face value. Who do you think they are made for?
