When your boyfriend/girlfriend gets so crazy that only a good ol’ shake will resolve the situation.
My angry girlfriend went off on a crazy rant, so I had to Etch and Sketch her until she calmed down.
A good Etch and Sketch will reset her brain.
Etch-a-sketch vision is when someone you are staring at is playing naive, and you are stuck there having to make eye contact or listen to them for so long listening to how much of a 'Class A" personality they have and then everything starts to look like an etch a sketch because you have had to put up with too much violence for too long.
When I had to speak to a now religious therapist, who was a former prison psychiatrist, they tried to play down my ptsd and make jokes about it- and then came the etch-a-sketch vision...
A girl you get with when your drunk, when you wake up the next day, you shake your head in shame to forget about it.
"So anything going with you and stacy?"
"No Way. Straight up Etch a Sketch"
is an American toy (from the 1960s), where you can "sketch" a picture by moving some controls that "paint" a picture on a screen attached to a box.
You can clear the screen by shaking up the box, thereby shaking "loose" the material that you sketch. It represents a "do over."
"I think ... It's almost like an Etch A Sketch - you can kind of shake it up and we start all over again”.
