My wife hated Hide the Pain Harold - until I got paid for a Hungarian TV commercial

[Lulz Sect]

We’re also using the meme for good. We want it to be more than just a sad smile. I am the face of a campaign for a mental health service in Hungary, similar to the Samaritans in the UK. I’m proud that something more has come out of the last 10 years than just an idiotic smile.

I’m 74 now. I spent 40 years as an engineer. I did a bit of public speaking then, at conferences and lectures, but that was very different from appearing on television talkshows and YouTube videos. As an engineer, it was really me. Now, it’s role play: I’m Hide the Pain Harold. But I’m not actually a sad guy – I think I’m rather a happy one.

Fun story!! I’m glad to see it worked out well for “Harold.” Thanks for copy-pasting the relevant snippets.

Edit: I’m sorry I forgot to say something snarky and ironic. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
