This made me physically ill while enjoying a bowl of delicious fruity pebbles. I didn't think that could happen.

Google 'trypophobia'. You has it.

[–]n4tural 4 points5 points ago

omg, fuck everything about that. I might actually have this... am I the only one who finds all of these nauseating?

[–]mangarooboo 4 points5 points ago

Nope. Everybody else who has it does too.

If you're having sex with something that looks like anything that's been in this thread, you've got more problems than anyone here can diagnose.

What is "very unnatural" about lotus seed pods, surinam toads, and the other type of stuff trypophobia is usually associated with?

[–]Durfee 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm not bothered. What does that mean? Is it related to my liking loli?

My friend had it all through high school & we just all laughed at her fear of 'circle patterns' until she found that it was a real thing. I'll be honest, this picture really made me feel icky, but most things that trigger my friend are harmless to me.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's really strange. The things that make me icky the most are those where you can see that something is inside those holes. Like this (makes me almost vomit): http://imgur.com/L1miU

Thanks for pointing out that this is a real phobia :)

[–]jerisad 0 points1 point ago

Yep, seed pods are one of the worst known triggers.

They look more like a cross between botfly larvae, lotus seeds, and skin tags.

Yeeesh not much better. I guess I was seeing my own personal fear of ticks. God I hate the buggers

I'm upvoting you in the hope to whatever is holy that you're right.

[–]blind_duck 6 points7 points ago

They are both fake, both shoops.

The breast one is a lotus plant and the finger one is lamprey mouths.

Warning, those pages have the pics as well as the debunking.

[–]lordjord 1 point2 points ago

Thank you, but it's too late. I am already inconsolable.

I watched a man burn to death earlier today on Reddit, but those images are the worst part of my day.

[–]What_is_cake -1 points0 points ago

What is that? Some sort of necrosis? Or just a weird medical disease? Looks like the outer layers seems to be some kind of hardened skin or something.

Oh, and imagine fapping with that rough texture?

[–]Bael 20 points21 points ago

They're lamprey mouths photoshopped onto fingers. Knowing is half the battle!

[–]OliveBeee[S] 3 points4 points ago

Pretty sure its not real (please don't let it be real) but it really messes with my trypophobia.

I watch cyst popping videos for fun. I could watch bot fly larva removals all day. But a picture of an Aero candy bar is horrifying. Lotus seed pods make me want to die. Surinam toads convince me that I already have.

I clicked the link, then I recognized it from the thumbnail and audibly said "NO NO NO" while closing it before it loaded.

So I was merely reminded of it by the thumnail and it's still gonna haunt it for a while.

Sorry... I kind of took it a little too far... but I am one of those people who picks at their skin too much and this picture sort of characterizes the way I perceive pickable things on my body. It sucks, I know.
