Brainwashing through Osmosis?

As I walk up to the Rossyln slug line yesterday, I see a guy waiting in a car with a sign posted on the passenger side door. This guy looks familiar, I think to myself.

And he is.


He was the indvidual with the self-help/motivation/religious cd that was trying to brainwash his slugs. The voice on the cd sounds like one of those voiceovers from the 60's radio shows, but more monotone.

It's the type of brainwashing tape that would play over and over again. Anyways I cringe when I get into the backseat, and wait for a second victim to take the front seat.

The heat level was cranked high, to the point where I couldn't breathe, as we left for the HOV lane near the Pentagon. I went into a vegetative state as I tried to stay awake. If I didn't have the Nano, I would have definitely been brainwashed via osmosis. I felt like I was trying to keep my head out of the water, for some air I could breathe inside the car, and it was excruciating; but I just hoped I didn't conk out and end up in a closet somewhere.

To add insult to injury, after we pull off the interstate; he opens his window and is obviously gasping for air at the light. Then he rolls it up after we start driving again. TURN DOWN THE HEAT, and maybe you can breathe. This further solidifies my conspiracy theory.

Was this the Church's new way of indoctrinating new members into its religion? Getting its members to carpool with people, two at a time, get them to fall asleep in the car, and feed them information through osmosis?

It was a valiant effort but it didn't work.
