I know there are other threads about this topic, but I can’t find them so I’m going to start my own.
You Tube has literally thousands of videos of people draining abscesses and sebaceous cysts; some are done by physicians (with the patient consenting to the filming) but others are done at home, usually accompanied by plenty of beer, barking dogs, and an assortment of weapons - nut picks, razor blades, X-acto knives, etc. :eek: and they’re pouring alcohol and/or peroxide directly into the wounds, often with very interesting consequences. :smack:
This one is the Mack Daddy of them all:
A woman has an incredible amount of cottage-cheesy looking stuff coming out of a cyst on her shoulder, and one of her friends EATS some of it! :eek: :eek: :eek: Add the vomit smiley, because that’s what he, and the woman who’s performing the surgery, both immediately do.
" Harlequin-type ichthyosis (also known as “Harlequin baby”,[1] Harlequin ichthyosis,[1]ichthyosis congenita,[1] Ichthyosis fetalis,keratosis diffusa fetalis, “Harlequin fetus”,[2]:562and “Ichthyosis congenita gravior”[1]), is a severe genetic skin disease, which causes the dermis to be around 10 times thicker than normal and grow at an exceptionally fast rate. At birth, the child’s whole body is encased in an ‘armour’ of thick white plates of skin, separated with deep cracks. In addition, theeyes, ears, penis, and the appendages may be abnormally contracted. Because of resultant cracked skin in locations where normal skin would fold, it is easily pregnable by bacteriaand other contaminants, which can result in serious risk of fatal infection. Constant care is required to moisturise and protect the skin.[3]"
I don’t seek out things that I know will result in gross pictures, even “natural” things like grasshoppers <shudder> (natural my ass. vile creatures from hell) I don’t recall what I was looking up when I stumbled upon what must be the dreaded “lotus boob” :eek: <Roseanne Rosanna Danna > At first I didn’t know *what *it was<RRD> Then it dawned on me and it was every bit as disturbing as you all have said it is. To this day I haven’t seen goatse or tub girl and I believe I’ll just keep it that way.
Lotus pods in general freak me out. I’m okay with honeycombs or looking at the end of a bunch of straws, but lotus pods make me want to peel off my skin and run away.
Unless you’re being whooshy - we’ve discussed it here a bunch of times- it’s call trypophobia. And I warn you to never ever google it to get the correct spelling as I just did. Why the hell are there pictures of something that describes a phobia of images of it? So yes, now I’m certain I’ve seen the dreaded lotus boob (pukey smiley)
Leaving aside medical conditions and extreme things like 2girls1cup, the grossest thing I’ve seen recently is a video clip with a really drunk guy in a nightclub, drinking from a mug of beer. Then he throws up into the beer. Then he drinks from the (pukey) mug again. Then he throws up again. Then he drinks again. This goes on for about a minute before his girlfriend finally takes the beer away.
Well the fish tongue eating parasite Cymothoa exigua is pretty grim. I think I learned about it here.
Click if you like, but it is a picture of a parasite that has eaten the tongue of the fish and sits there in the mouth of the fish instead of the tongue.
“Lotus boob” is probably fake. There are pictures of various body parts that look like a lotus pod, and they’re done with various items, usually theatrical makeup.
At some point, some bright fellow posted a picture with the following story:
A man decided to commit suicide, so he went out in the woods with a rope, strung it from a tree, and hanged himself. In the time it took for him to be missed, searched for, and found, he was starting to get a tad ripe. His spine had begun to pull free of his body. Police took pictures, of course, which to my thinking, should have stayed locked up in some cop file in a filing cabinet in the bottom drawer of a forgotten police station somewhere behind a locked door in the basement with a sign reading “Beware Of The Leopard.”
It was the first thing I’d ever seen that I actually wished I could unsee. It made me want to pull my eyes out and scrub the images from my naked brain with a toothbrush soaked in kerosene. And since then, I have made a point not to visit the darker or uglier parts of the internet, thankyavurramuch.
Some days I can debate politics, and some days I want cute cat pictures.
Wang-Ka, I’ve had to help pull a floater out of the river, and I got to help cut down a guy who hung himself in a remote spot of a local park. He was there for a few weeks before someone saw him.
