What is that video? Does anyone know, please tell me, it said 98% of people couldn't watch it. I can't look at the picture. Why would someone post that stuff on fb? It's so odd.

It takes you to somewhere else (no no no I didn't look no no) I suspect a spammy scam.

Tinofbeans - it tends to be circular or random patterns, rather than a set pattern like on a cellular blanket, apparently. Google trypophobia instead of clicking on links, and there will be some exciting explanatory photos for you. :)

thumbwitch- thank you, that was gross... Grin

HELP! I can't get this image out of my head.

Saw it a few days ago, and it's still turning my stomach. I'm not particularly squeamish, don't know why it's had such a strong effect.

StatisticallyChallenged · 01/07/2014 18:16

LuubyLuu are you freaked out by holes in general or is it just the holes in the boobs particularly? If it's just the boob rather than holes then genuinely try googling "lotus seed head" - you'll recognise the shape and style of the holes straight away as they're really distinctive. Then you'll know it's an obvious photoshop

I was the same, it was literally turning my stomach until I saw the pictures and could work out how they'd done it. Was the only thing that calmed me down.

Well I've at least learned that my fear of holes has a name! Trypophobia

same here!! I am deeply disturbed by this sort of thing I never ever knew it had a name I have seen this posting and its disturbing me even though I know its fake.

RockandRollsuicide · 01/07/2014 19:02

LuubyLuu

Me too, I am deeply upset by it...

BeyondTheSea · 01/07/2014 20:22

I am so pleased I saw this thread, I am totally freaked about about it as well. It actually makes me want to leave FB (Only a good thing).
Why on earth do people post these things?

BeyondTheSea · 01/07/2014 20:26

Don't google tyopophobia, loads of images come up!

HilariousInHindsight · 01/07/2014 20:33

Photo just makes me feel itchy.

Or it did when I looked at it last?

KarinMurphy · 01/07/2014 20:35

Aw, it makes me feel all nostalgic for my early years on the inernet when anyone hotlinking on places like Something Aweful found the image had been replaced with lotus seed boob or goatse.

If you find this kind of photoshopping fascinating then look up lamprey fingers. Someone has shopped a lemprey's mouth at the end of someone's fingers. It's extremely creepy even when you know what it is.

KarinMurphy · 01/07/2014 20:36

Awful, not Aweful. I can spell honest!

SwedishEdith · 01/07/2014 20:38

I love the idea of being frightened by a crumpet Grin

trevortrevorslattery · 01/07/2014 21:05

So glad to see this thread! I've been trying to put it out of my mind for the last couple of weeks.. I knew it was fake but still.. . I feel loads better for reading all of your comments
Blleeehhh though.

RockandRollsuicide · 01/07/2014 21:14

Don't google tyopophobia, loads of images come up!

I wasnt going to until you said that....oh lord....weeps

RockandRollsuicide · 01/07/2014 21:16

love the idea of being frightened by a crumpet

they hadnt occured to me, will look at them with hole new eyes tomorrow Grin, I dont feel fear its more of a deep disturbance in my physe, I became obsessed at one time and couldnt stop looking at images...my mum had an arm sling thing once and it affected me deeply..it replusled me but at the same time I wore it when she was done with it, looked like a skin shedding....

CatsCantTwerk · 01/07/2014 21:24

I must have zero weird friends as I have been hearing about this for weeks on MN and on FB but it has never showed on my feed at all. Unfortunately it is just making me curious. Is is really terrible? I have seen many botfly vids, is it like that? Confused

BeyondTheSea · 01/07/2014 21:33

I was trying to save people not tempt you to google {grin}

I still feel vv itchy....

phantomnamechanger · 01/07/2014 21:46

I remember always really hating, almost feeling sick, at the sight of dimples made in sand by gentle rain - stretching out across the beach as far as you could see. Also the little bugs that crawl up out of the sand, and heaving masses of ants etc. It makes my head itch thinking about it. Only learned this was a real phobia from MN, quite recently.

DO NOT GOOGLE SURINAM TOADS if you have this phobia, of all the things I wish I could unsee and unknow, that's top of the list

StatisticallyChallenged · 01/07/2014 21:53

catscanttwerk if you are genuinely curious google "Lotus boob"

Bodicea · 01/07/2014 21:53

Just mentioned trypophobia to DH and he is freaking out again after freaking out over the picture two days ago. Just cos I brought it up! I didn't take this seriouly until now.

lastnightIwenttoManderley · 01/07/2014 22:01

Ooh, i have a phobia of dry river beds, is that the same? Also stone walls where they use cement mortar and so the stone wears away leaving the mortar proud .
Maybe I'm just weird...

and don't even get me started on razor clams...

LJBanana · 01/07/2014 22:18

I saw it last week, I didn't click on it and hid it, I could tell it had been photoshopped and have since seen something else explaining that it's a hack and a lotus flower etc. However I still cannot get the image out of my head, it's horrid. It makes me feel all hot and as if in on the verge of vomiting despite knowing it's not real. Shudder!!!

Cocolepew · 01/07/2014 22:23

There was a thread a few months ago about trypophobia, the images made me feel like vomiting Hmm.
They kept popping into my head for about three weeks afterwards.

I have a weird compulsion to look at them Confused
