(fallen london stamps by my brain is an animal that must be tricked into walking into electric fences
absolutely wild to think that some people's brains can just be bribed or reasoned into walking into the electric fence. if I tell my brain "if you walk into the electric fence I'll buy you ice cream" it'll just go "what if I don't walk into the electric fence and buy myself ice cream"
*stuffing my brain full of ice cream* hey how are you doing? are ya havin fun?? feelin good?? yeah?!?! that's so cool, man. listen, while you're feelin good, I have an idea for another fun thing to do! I'm serious, man, it's gonna be so so fun. it's gonna be so fun and exciting and new and it's not going to hurt at. all. not at all!
okay, listen, so. you see that electric fence over there? I want you... to touch it. no, no! listen, it'll be fun. it'll be fun, okay? it won't be like the other times! this is the fun electric fence. you trust me, right? of course you do. I would never lie to you. haven't we been having fun tonight? aren't you excited to have more fun?? okay, okay, on the count of three--
