The pic as of today is most definitely unsafe for work…so much so I’m going to need some brain bleach \<shudder\>

My guess is, it’s the one where his Spidey Sense isn’t the only thing that’s tingling.

Calling that NSFW is a little dramatic, I think. First of all, it takes a minute to even notice. Secondly, it’s pointed out in a negative light, so you can’t be mistaken for looking at it for jollies, which brings us to, thirdly, there’s no swearing or nudity. And finally, it could be a cup to prevent his junk from showing. Doesn’t really look like a boner to me.

I just don’t see it. Maybe it’s gone by now?

Okay. I saw this one, but it didn’t strike me as NSFW unless you work at a really uptight place.

The only thing I saw that was hard to look at was the one with the bodacious bad teeth.

Okay. Spider Man. Kids. Hands over the eyes. What’s NSFW?

Okay. If y’all want to run the risk that something may be NSFW before opening the link, then maybe you want to be all alone in a dark place before you check out:

_shrug_ I don’t know then. I was focusing more on the “brain bleach” part of his comment than the NSFW part.

Spiderman, his Spidey Sense “tingling” while speaking to a bunch of preschoolers. Reminded me of a recently banned poster, whom I cannot directly name.

Thanks for clarifying. It looked innocent enough the first time I glanced at it. I should have looked closer since it “failed” somehow. But mainly I thought you had one on Dave’s Daily that was upsetting and none of them seemed NSFW to me.

For what it’s worth, I believe I know who you mean in the ex-poster category.
