Given all the morbid curiosity regarding popping zits on this board, and perhaps because my search-fu is weak (I could not find an earlier mention,) I present [Popthatzit.](http://www.popthatzit.com/) Don’t ask how I found it, I just wish I could unfind it.

I nod slowly, serene in my decision that rather than clicking the link, I would return to the thread after doing housework, and read the comments instead.

The comments indicate that my decision was wise. I smile gently, and nod again. And vow: the link, I shall not click.

Oh god. Oh god. How can doctors put up with treating people. If it were up to me, I would be putting them down as soon as I saw any of these patients.

I feel like puss is oozing all over my body. I’m going in for a closer look. That horse one . . . I’m going to have flashbacks from this.

What the…? Did that abscess hold a couple of gallons of milk or what? What the fuck was going on there?

So bizarre, I’m not even grossed out as I am perplexed. Can you imagine how the horse felt before that fucker was lanced?

I have to admit to having the urge to lance some zits with a sterilized needle when I ride the bus. I’m like, “Dude, doesn’t that hurt? A couple of seconds of pain and it will be gone… and we will all be better off.”

Ok, here’s my boil story. Not mine… but my story. My doctors, since I was very young, are Mennonites. Think Amish Lite. And not too Lite. 😛

Anyways, There was the father, old by the time I can even remember, and his three sons. Later they expanded… They hired Dr. Boyd, not a Mennonite, a youngish, regular guy.

I went in, with my mom, I was 14-ish, for some problem with my ears. No biggie. In the waiting room was a 5 or 6 year old girl and her mom. She had a HUGE boil on her leg. They got called in right before me. When I went in, was sitting, alone, on the table in the examining room, I could hear the blood-curdling screams of this poor little girl, a couples rooms over, as Dr. Boyd lanced this boil.

After a while, the screaming subsided, and Dr. Boyd came into my examining room, looking for some cotton. He looks me straight in the eye, says, “You’re next, you know…” and walks back out. :eek:

I’m not sure if I’m going to look at the videos in the link but I will describe the worst I ever saw.

Back in the 80’s I started attending an annual Superbowl party with a group of guys that had known each other for years. During half-time, they had a tradition of watching porn. Not just any porn, but _unusual_ porn. It would be a montage of stuff on tape. In fact, the rotating host of the party would quest all year for the bazaar and hopefully, someone would become ill at the images. I was roped in to the group to perhaps be the ‘puker’. I did not and although I never hosted I went to several more.

So there was this one part

**DON’T READ THIS. I AM WARNING YOU.**

The camera just showed a side of a man with an erection. A porn star man, so he was very large. The view only showed from his bellybutton to bottom of his ass so most of the screen was his huge cock. On his cock, was some sort of boil or sore. It was about the size of a 50 cent piece. With his cock in one hand, his other hand had some sort of medical implement that was rather spoon-like. He dug into the sore and opened to let something that looked like a mixture of puss and caviar out of the sore and it poured out for far too long. I almost lost it but it was horrible.

I don’t know if that video is on the net now. If it is and someone finds it. Don’t watch it man. My description does not do it justice.
