I Googled the Human Centipede after the Guardian referred to it as one of the sickest films ever made. Just don’t.

Baby the Bulldog

I have no self control whatsoever so googled dragon butter - got images of Welsh butter with a dragon on it and also pics of bearded dragons. Sootikins - some cute cats. Hypodontia - just a few crooked teeth? Think my google is just being kind to me

Oblomov20 · 23/07/2020 06:58

I should try googling some of these things.
Even trypophobia does nothing to me.

I did try to warn you ..........

And yes , there are no adequate words to describe them Angry

Mummiepig · 23/07/2020 07:41

I have a strong stomach and love weird and gross things, I’ve googled lots on this thread and was a bit “meh” until I got to Degloving
JUST DONT!
I actually feel sick now

Soubriquet · 23/07/2020 08:49

They got off too easy Sad

Isthisfinallyit · 23/07/2020 09:29

I'm thread hopping, have just googled decidual cast. The description should have been enough, but I couldn't resist clicking on the images.
No more Google for me!

It happened to me in real life and made me instantly throw up!

The turtle getting it on with the ball.

In fact anything to do with turtle mating or male organs!

@AuntieSocia1

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!

and me!

I genuinely had a nightmare after having to read about fluid injection injuries as part of a safety course at work.

My biggest Google regret was the plane shot down over the Ukraine. I think a report had come out but when I stuck the flight number in I saw photos taken on the crash site with close ups of bodies. I only looked for a few seconds but can't unsee.

Pancreatic cancer survivor rate.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 23/07/2020 13:12

Ooh The Human Centipede is one of my (not favourite that's not the right word ) one of the saddest films ever .

The final few seconds , the utter helplessness and despiration .

Though I spent 99% of the film praying for The Mad Doctor to kill the dark haired girl , kill her now .

I haven't seen HC2 or HC3 though

KaptainKaveman · 23/07/2020 13:23

This thread is destroying me....can someone explain Baby the Bulldog please? I'm too terrified to google - and I speak as someone who has watched Human Centipede 1 (weird, gross and good), 2 (the scariest) and 3 (camp crap).

KaptainKaveman · 23/07/2020 13:24

What is Decidual cast? is it related to deciduous trees?

spikyplants · 23/07/2020 13:28

@KaptainKaveman - horrendous animal cruelty. Pictures of wastes of oxygen enjoying hurting this poor animal. Angry

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 23/07/2020 13:32

Pictures of wastes of oxygen

Images that hardened RSPCA Officers found difficult to view .
They filmed it .

And , utter betrayal - that poor animal wasn't PTS for 3 months .

spikyplants · 23/07/2020 14:05

I could read any more after seeing a few pictures, @70s Sad

spikyplants · 23/07/2020 14:06

*couldn't

Not even the littlest bit
The80sweregreat · 24/07/2020 19:51

I looked up the butter and it was a brand of welsh butter? I lived in wales for a while and never saw it for sale anywhere! Must be a new thing! ..
The hypodentia wasn't nice. The x ray pictures looked painful. Reminds me of when I googled ' drugs mules' and they had x rays of the drugs in people's stomachs
Horrible images!

labazsisgoingmad · 01/08/2020 17:48
