Gimme a break, I was what 4 & 1/2 feet tall? It was easier for things to go over my head back then.
I recently watched the Thundarr episode 'Harvest of Doom' recently. First time in almost 40 years. In it, Ariel slaps a red flower from Ookla's hand, warning the group that it is a "death flower," whose pollen has the "power to numb human will"!! An evil wizard oversees the harvesting of fields of these red poppies... I mean, death flowers. As a kid, I clearly did not get the opium references that seem hammer-over-the-head obvious today. It just shows how quickly we grow up though- this naivete was only about a year or two away from my first experimentation numbing my own human will.
