The site is exactly what you would think it is: every time you reload it, you get a picture of an explosion and a picture of boobs (no nudity). This may not be what the internet was invented for, but it is what it’s for.

I wonder what it says about me that I recognized none of the explosions, but most of the boobs? 🆒

Not with no nudity it’s not ! 😃

Am I the only one who saw this thread title and thought of exploding breasts ?

What I learned from this experiment:

Explosions are cool, but boobs invariably grab my attention much better. After a couple clicks I realized I was instinctively looking to the right for every page load.

This was my experience also.

Hypothesis: Explosions are an action. For them to be compelling, we must watch them from the beginning. Not just a still right in the middle. Boobs on the other hand must do nothing more than exist for them to be compelling.

Solution: Stare at boobs more.

Yep, while I love me an explosion, I was mainly looking at the boobs while checking out the explosions with my peripherals.

As a special effects artist, I actually find that page to be surprisingly useful- I use it as photo reference every day. It’s at the top of my bookmarks right now.

Oh, I guess the explosions are nice, as well.

I heartily endorse any web page featuring explosions or boobs. This one has instantly become a become a double triple platinum club member.

Since when have boobs required context? :dubious:
