It comes from George Orwell's book "1984". Big Brother is like a central totalitarian regime that literally controls everything everyone does... well, at least they monitor everything everyone does. So you're always being watched. You'd be very scared if you haven't already been brainwashed. ninja
o 3o That sort of reminds me from the book, Pretties, because they people are sort of being watch/brain washed because after this surgery they get when they turn 16, to make them look pretty, their minds get messed up to like have no arguments and such. And there's this thing called Special Circumstances that like take care of things when something comes out of order.
