Don’t hug me, I’m scared, or as a lot of people call it, What the hell did I just watch, is a video series started on Youtube that went very viral. The series feature 3 muppet like creatures who in a Sesame street kind of way discover and learn about things like Love, Time, Computers or Creativity. It’s all very nice and lovely until it turns into a nightmare for reasons not really known to the writer of this article.

The first video explores creativity. It has a very nice tune to it, and it’s all very lovely until things get a little bit too creative.

The second video explores the concept of time. Everything from the way we keep time, tell time, run out of time, the beginning of time, to the time…you die.

The third one is about love. Love is a beautiful thing. Unless you’re ugly. In that case it might turn out that you become a weird god-like thing that the creatures of the forest have to feed or you get angry.

The fourth one gets really weird. As if it wasn’t weird enough. Our three heroes want to know more about the world, so they start talking to a computer, who sucks them in, as computers do. It all gets kind of metaphysical when the broom guy becomes a real person in front of the camera.

The fifth is actually coming out, we just have a teaser for it, and they’re also looking for funders on Kickstarter to make a whole series. I’m not entirely sure that’s such a great idea.
