[ WP ] You are watching a kid 's show with viewer participation ( like Dora the Explorer , for instance ) . You begin to notice that the characters can actually see and hear you .

The tasteless piece of paper fully dissolved, and so I wait eager and nervous. `` I guess some TV will kill some time while I wait,'' I decide. 
 
 I click through the stations as I lounge comfortably back in my favorite chair. I figure some kid's shows and cartoons will keep me in a positive mindset. I find one that seems to take place in the ocean. Two fish converse with each other and adventure their waters. I remember how *Finding Nemo* put me in a great mood while watching. I figure to have the same effects with this'fish show'. 
 
 `` Charlie, let's go for a swim!'' `` Dude, we are swimming,'' responded Charlie. `` Oh yeah, I always forget we are surrounded by water,'' the other fish remembered. 
 
 `` Well, this show kind of sucks.'' I thought to myself. I reach for the remote, only to be interrupted. `` Do n't reach for the remote, we'll be right back after these short messages,'' demanded one of the fish from the TV. 
 
 I freeze in response to the funny timing. I feel a bit of euphoria and a strong urge to laugh from my belly. 
 
 The messages begin, `` Hi! Do you struggle with reality? Do you sometimes think,'what is my purpose here?' If so, then you may be on the right channel...'' The ad continues but does n't seem to be advertising anything. 
 
 I reach for my glass of water and sip on that. The two fishes return to the screen without transition it seemed. I cough on the water a little bit and continue to cough. 
 
 `` Hey you should grab some water, Charlie,'' the other fish said. `` Dude, I am surrounded by water, how can I grab some?'' 
 
 `` Oh yeah, I forgot again,'' the other fish said embarrassingly. 
 
 `` Why the hell am I still watching this,'' I think to myself. 
 
 `` How the hell are you still breathing, Charlie?'' 
 
 `` Dude, I am surrounded by water, I have gills,'' Charlie says. 
 
 `` Woah, am I surrounded by water?'' I question. 
 
 `` Hey guy, you are fucking surrounded by water!'' The fishes say simultaneously.
