Onward from one trauma to the next when Tiktok (I should have figured) has brought back an old sinister theory about the movie Finding Nemo. This perception shifter wrecked Angi's childhood (she was like 60 when that movie came out so let's play make believe.) Apparently, the barracuda that was blamed for the loss of Nemo's mother and all his siblings was not the cause of the mass extinction event. It turns out that Mrs. Vorhees was the kille...wait, wrong movie. Nemo's mother was the culprit because in actual life, female clownfish tend to eat their eggs and barracudas do not. So the death that swept the ocean that day was triggered by mother clown fish (who then went on to get eaten or something, this part was unclear.) The point is that Nemo only lived due to sheer luck or maybe because she was too full. Had she lived though, there is a good chance she would have probably eaten Nemo as well. While Angi's therapist put her calls to voicemail, she continued on how Coral was just an absolute bitch. See, marine biologists showcased that female clown fish eat their young while the males tend to them. Though the males will eat damaged eggs/kids and during the first few attempts, the parents will end up eating all the eggs for fun. This underwater horror story also has an even darker tone in that Nemo may have not actually existed. See, another swing showcased that Nemo may have been eaten and simply never existed and the whole movie is a hallucinated fever dream. After all, Nemo translates to "nobody." That's right, you were actually watching Finding Nobody! Basically, Tiktok is out to ruin your childhood by showcasing the true horrors of nature and these reveals were blowing Marris' mind. Then again, all the Disney movies were kind of sinister. Bambi, The Lion King, Dumbo, dead parents about with built in childhood traumas. It's almost like Disney writers were all high on acid or shroomed out and decided to really screw us up (and then benefit later by making PTSD-addled adults love their parks.) Obviously, Pixar won't confirm this wild theory but Marris is now in the mood to rewatch the movie and do a deep dive to see if it tracks or not. This led into a childhood trauma movie look through like how The Land Before Time made Marris cry and how Charlotte's Web did Angi in. Mother of the Year Taylor then forgot (see: drunk) that Charlotte's Web was so bad and showed it to her four year old daughter and it was the first time she cried from a movie. After announcing she's the worst parent ever (spot on) Angi also mentioned how the flying monkey's and The Wicked Witch from The Wizard of Oz terrified her so you can see how well adjusted we are on this show.
