when i was younger, the tv had to 'warm up' before it could actually show anything on screen..when you turned it on, it was just white noise..and then the national anthem would play then all the shows would start to air..and whenever i got too close to the tv or touched the screen, my mother told me that the tv would suck my blood if i touched it or came too close to it..i actually thought that up until i moved to north america...
