Some fartknocker thought it would be cute to take pictures of their sugar gliders and copy the heads on to human bodies. (About halfway down the page on the left.)

What the hell was this person thinking?

I vaguely recall seeing even more disturbing pictures like that, but I don’t remember where.

That’s really disturbing when you get to the part where they put the animal heads on the humans.

Maybe I wasn’t looking at the same page as you were, Robo, because I didn’t find anything offensive about it. It wasn’t the _cutest_ thing I had ever seen, but it was obviously just an attempt to be silly and personify the girl’s pets. In the immortal words of Lloyd Dobler, “you must chill!”

I’ve got to echo Sapphire, Robo. The heads-on-people was silly, the whole page is a bit too cutesy for my taste, but I really don’t find it disturbing.

They’d make great horror-flick villians.

I was sent a photo with a gorilla’s head copied onto the body of a bikini-clad model. I can see how it was a joke, but it still creeps me out on some weird, “I don’t know, it just _does!_” level.

When I read the OP I thought that “sugarglider” was some jarbayj-esque euphimism for “penis”, so that page was a HELL of a lot cuter than I expected it to be 😃

Not disturbing, not at all. Pretty lame yes and Robo, I have seen much more disturbing pictures on other pages…can’t post the link but it starts with rotten and ends with com.

If putting an animal’s head on a human’s body is disturbing to you, I would hate to see what would happen if you came across other websites. Oh and someone from Fathom (or even here) could give you the link to the Bonsai Kitten link…that will floor you if cut and pasted pictures that are obvious scare you.

I, too, was relieved that **Manduck’s** WAG was untrue.  
My sick mind thought in that direction as well.

Staged & doctored photos don’t disturb me. What I find disturbing is people who actually dress up their dogs in everyday real life…yikes!

Peace,

XTC and computers don’t mix well.
