Oh, please Coldfire. Everyone here knows you’re a lightweight when it comes to popping zits. Now get back on that link and watch it the whole way through. There’ll be a quiz on it later. 😃

It reminds me of sebaceous cyst material. I can’t make out what everyone’s saying in the butt pimple video, but at one point it seems that they’re remarking on the smell…and a popped sebaceous cyst can produce a very unique odor.

Now **that** was cool. You guys act like you’ve never seen surgery films before.

I volunteer at the SPCA, and recently this kitty had a crusty scab on his back. I decided to clean it off, and whoa! Stuff like in this video came pouring out. I don’t think it hurt him, since he didn’t freak out, but it was really unbelievable to me that so much stuff came out. I have had my share of zits, but I had never seen anything like that before. Does that stuff expand when it hits air or something? Anyway, this video looked tame compared to that poor kitty’s abscess. There’s no substitute for seeing this kinda thing in person. :eek:

PS–The kitty in question got better and was recently adopted. Yay!
