Hyperreality has gotten its hold on today's society more than ever. One example of this is the television series of ER or Grey's Anatomy where everything is always intense in the hospital and the doctors are always ready to spring into action. In these TV series the patients are almost always saved no matter how bad things look or how impossible it is for them to survive in reality. It's really not like that at all in today's hospitals of the world. It's not intense all the time, actually they're usually very boring and smell hecka funky. And in reality not all the patients live ok, let's face it people die all the time in hospitals. One other example of hyperreality is when it comes to Axe commercials. Like when some dude sprays on some Axe and then throngs of scantly clad hott women pounce of him. Like no, that does not happen in reality at all. When was the last time you saw this happen? Never? That's what I thought.
