Amoeba Whisperer: "Stay in your OWN Petrie Dish!"

[GoatGal]

Thanks for posting my threads, Wonka!

I don't know why that stuff is hard for me, but here's an example:

I've seen that "Liberty Mutual" commercial on TV a bunch of times.

I didn't notice that it was about insurance until last week or so.

Anyhow. I'm a native New Yorker and I kept focusing on the fact that the Statue of Liberty is always in the background for the various commercials.

And why that one guy has such a weird "crease arrangement" in the front of his jeans!
How did the producers allow such emphasis on his "package"?
Did that sneak by the editors? Wardrobe department?
Was it intentional, subliminal?

I was trying to figure out from my memory exactly where the actors were standing...what the vantage point was for the shot.

Then wondered why they kept filming in NYC... Ellis Island?
Immigration? Were these people supposed to represent immigrants?

See what I mean.....?????
It's bizarre.
Creative, funny, but not always functional.


I realized two days ago: "LIBERTY"+ Statue of Liberty. Duh.


Now, if I were really paying "attention" it would have been OBVIOUS.

But the point is, I tend not to see or pick up on things that regular folks do.
My mind goes to the corners, tangents, weird connections.


Once again, it's missing the forest for the trees.


So thanks again for the help!

PS: And yes, GUBU has been sprouting hair (gray) in some odd places lately, so maybe the "Werewolf" diagnosis is correct!
I'll check on the next full moon.
