Having recently watched the film Dark Waters I googled the synthetic chemical the film was about PFAS and went down an Internet wormhole I wished I hadn’t.

Wow...that fer-de-Lance bite is shocking!

Not all hero's wear capes...

I truly wish someone would round up all these terms and give a one line explanation sadly it won't be me as I'm a complete wuss

I can only hope someone does this before curiosity gets the better of me!

Trypophobia - makes my skin crawl!

Dragon butter- bodily fluids and sex
Sootikins-gross thing before ladies had underwear
Rainbow kiss- different bodily fluids and sex
Blue waffle- mouldy looking lady bits
Thassophobia-basically like looking over a cliff whilst in deep water
Hyperdontia-lots of teeth in mouth
Trytophobia-holes. Just lots and lots of holes
Deed fried tarantula-self explanatory

Snow blowing- another different bodily fluids and sex

Soubriquet · 21/07/2020 18:05

Huh!

After googling hyperdontia myself, I realised I had this as a teen!

I had two teeth growing from behind my two big top teeth. Dentist removed them though so I don’t have it anymore but some of those photos are extreme

Ooh trypophobia's a horrible one. shudder
Also clown spiders.

In a similar vein, never look at the 'Offended?' page of Encyclopaedia Dramatica. I learned that one the hard way. barf

Eyelash mites. My life was better when I was ignorant about eyelash mites.

No more Google for me!
