I thought that when records were sealed, they had little seals walking on them.
I had this strange experience of having an imaginary friend, who was pretty much a Mary Sue who was far far better than sanic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hated Sonic a lot as well, for no actual reason. I hated a lot of other anthropomorphic characters too. I even hated Mario.
I don't know if I was handicapped or wise for pretty much hating everything.
