It is a strange thing when you catch a commercial after going so long without seeing any. Although I do watch things on Netflix, which jams a lot of subliminal messaging style content into their shows, I haven't had cable in nearly about 12 years and certainly don't miss it.
That's nice to hear. It seems that any program intended for mass consumption must include the subliminals. Indeed it seems the primary purpose of such shows. Once the eyes are opened they cannot be closed.
