  • A fan’s hastily written analysis of the first episode of the new season of Don’t Hug Me I'm Scared. This was made in the middle of the night because I couldn’t sleep due to paranoia that common household objects were going to strangle me in my sleep.

    You didn't mention that when the characters asked Duncan where the briefcase was at the beginning he showed them the green emergency briefcase, which ended up BEING the briefcase teacher from the beginning. So if they would have listened to Duncan, they wouldn't have experienced that job as much.

    I feel like the meal token is similar to a Family Guy joke where Cleveland dies and goes to heaven but he, being black in a long line of white people before him, suddenly is subject to an "ID check" that nobody had to do beforehand. "It's an extremely new policy." He's being shunned by conveniently being locked out right when he's about to get something.
    I've seen Duck's shunning in the workplace as a commentary on neurodivergent people in the workplace as a whole. He is clearly poorly accommodated by his job, and instead of helping Duck with his situation and working with him to make his work more enjoyable and doable, they just pretend he doesn't exist, and when that fails, shove him into a hole of work that doesn't suit him, making him less and less resistant as he realizes that he won't be helped, that he has to repress his urges and put on a tolerant face.

    This could be far-fetched but I think the coin stabbing duck in the eye could have been foreshadowing his death in episode 2. I haven't heard anyone suggest this. But coins were commonly placed on the eyes of the deceased so the dead would have payment to cross the river styx. Commonly called corpse coins.

    Two things I loved about this episode. One was duck's complete arrogance, saying things like "I'm the best one" and "I've got the most valuable brain" and being a hilarious jerk to Duncan and the other workers.
    The other thing was that Yellow Guy's wife was a spanner and their daughter was a yellow spanner. I just found that adorable.

    i also thought that the part with the stress song was referencing how companies often say they care about their workers mental health and that they have resources to help workers deal with the stress of their jobs when they themselves are inflicting said stress. like with how (assuming the uhh carehound ai? can control whats being shown to duck) they put him in a tight rope and then give him books to cope with the stress of being on said tight rope but then at the same time tug on it, causing him to fall.

    Then there's the blue one which i see as Smart Yellow Guy who also has blue hair but it's fancier and more noticable.
    The face has what lokks to be a third eye which often is associated with being smart, able to see everything even the unseeable. That's pretty much exactly what's going on with smart Yellow Guy. Plus he's not exactly happy with the new knowledge he learns.

    Interesting fact- two of my friends in Middle school saw Dhmis 1 and 2 a while before me, and they'd sing a slightly altered and shortened version of both songs with no context. I'd get quite annoyed whenever they sang about green not being a creative colour (I didn't know DHMIS existed and loved the colour green). I also found myself humming the first few verses of Time every few hours, and one day I found the first episode kicking about on CZcams and watched it.

  • @nyx4833
    @nyx4833 Před rokem

    "My thing that I did" is also the only thing to be destroyed completely instead of being recycled like all the other bit and parts. Which is both comments on the little to no impact the workers have and potentially the idea that what duck made, in their eyes, is not even worth using in any form.
    I don't know if this is just me miss understanding the wording but the "notice that his hat is now a smile" I think that has less to do with showing duck's happy/complacent nature and more showing that he is now apart of the team and accepted because no one gave him a hat before.
    I think the answer to "is he better off this way" for duck personally is no because he didn't enter the job with a happy attitude and when he remembers what happened before his life hadn't been wasted away because he is the same age as he started as and it is his first day. He is also happier when he gets home.
    I don't think anyone is actually happy about the accident (but that could just be my inability to identify emotions) but their reactions are more fear for themselves and what will happen to them if they don't act the way the company tells them they are suppose to. i.e. They are the one in the accident (like said) or whatever Carehound will do to them. I also find it interesting that we don't see the wife's reaction to this incident.
