Do Subliminal Messages Really Work?

I don’t know that I really believe in subliminal messages. (Go out and look for The Beast Within by Suzanne McMinn) They say that advertisers can flash a one-second ad on a movie screen and it will secretly convince audience members to go buy a Coke or more popcorn. (It has a sexy werewolf in it.) :hungry: Or other people believe that if you listen to a tape just as you’re falling asleep, you can learn a secret language or something. (You know you want to!):headspin: It just seems silly to me. (Run, don’t walk! Go buy it now, now, NOW!) :banana: But who knows how the human brain works?

    :duh:NO, They (audio subliminals)don’t work! How do I know?? Because 10 years ago I bought into the hype and purchased about 4 of them :loser: Subliminals about Motivation, breaking bad habits, Insomnia and Self Esteem. the music was worse than MuZak!:ick: Lame, Lame, Lame.
    I’ve since taped over them. At least the tapes were good quality….
    Now visual subliminals or scent subliminals…that’s a whole different game. They work..selling sex, violence and food.
