Word Search Puzzles - Subliminal Messages

I like doing word search puzzles, because they're one of the few puzzles I can do. (Keep the Sudoku away from me!!!) Well, another reason I like them is because sometimes, you can find words which are not on the list. It's fun. Sometimes it's funny. This time, it's freaky - I found subliminal messages in 2 puzzles...


Here's "Exam Time". I had to find words like PENCIL and O-LEVELS in this puzzle, but I also found what exam time really means to students, teachers, and in Singapore, the parents. Check out the photo below (see the detail on the right, and read the word backwards):


But what's even more freaky is the "In the Toy Shop" puzzle. Look past the innocent PLASTICINE, FIRE ENGINE and SKIPPING ROPE. If you look hard enough, you'll see what they really sell in toy shops (see detail on the left, reading from the bottom):


Yup, you got it. Now you know why drug addiction is so entrenched worldwide. Mummy and Daddy bought the dope, along with the dolls and toy cars.
