Am electrician, this is a legit classic. You go on any big job and at least one guy has that on his hard hat.
I love that there’s no “can” or “might”, electricity will kill you and you cannot escape it.
and it is coming. you can hide, but it will find you.
Now it’d be like:
You play with electricity, what happens next is SHOCKING!
The cheery face is what makes this. Electricity will kill you, and enjoy it!
I’ll fuckin’ cut you, kid.
That character is from the 20s: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reddy_Kilowatt
That there’s still trademark on that character…?
Trademark lasts as long as the owner cares to keep renewing it.
That’s s shame, would have been a nice candidate for an “anti-mascot” platformer game, where you electrocute children to death, then laugh at their mourning parents.
