[theha]

oh wait, i guess this made sense. psychology in the past is limited study i guess, even current common stress was categorized as severe depression decades ago (although, it might related to current society too), so the fans hysteria totally justified as scp, that time

 

[DragonRider45]

Haha, SIMP!

@Aldis

oh yeah Psychology as a field of science was not even a thing if you go a few 100 years back...
i also want to point out that " Hysteria" was historically a medical term given to female patients with a wide range of " disorders"
It covers alot of stuff, all from being it insomnia to just being horney.

Some of the more funny treatment included being sprayed with cold water to calm the fuck down so you stop wanting to have sex / lowering the feever.
Or getting a "massage" with a dildo from your friendly neighborhood doctor.



Let me tell you, old science ideas can get pretty wild.

Psychology is as much a science as alchemy or humoral physiology
At least masturbating won't make you a drug addicted vegetable

the funny part about this skip is that if you read the original source, they only stopped containing this after they killed Jimi Hendrix, Buddy Holly, John Lennon, Tupac Shakur, Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain in an attempt to contain the anomaly.

and that the guy who apparently drove most of this action was a foundation researcher named Wertham. as in, Fredric “Seduction of the Innocent” Wertham.

Tmw people are so used to classifying people doing weird-ass shit for no explainable reason, that when people do things normal people see as "normal," they think it's anomalous and make it an SCP until further notice

@tariqk
Moreover, you can see how the guy slowly goes up the chain of command until he reaches the position of OS-6, who then gets to retire early with full benefits.

 

[Sera_vranss]

Is this what we call SIMP?
:v

 

[mointpan]

Really obvious twist but enjoyable nonetheless

 

[tariqk]

@Kyte I got the impression that OS-6 and him were different people, considering OS-6 was forcefully retired in 1997 and that Wertham died in 1981...

...or did he???

At one point, it was classified as Keter. They tried to contain F. Mercury but they couldn't stop him.
