Vile pictures on Facebook

In the last month I have seen the contents of a toddlers nappy that they had decorated their bedroom with, the goo dripping out from a perforated eardrum and a friends' dd's horribly infected and green ingrowing toenail.
Why on earth would anyone think that anyone else would want to see these things?
Does anyone else have Facebook friends that overshare in the extreme or is it just the type of people I attract?

I'm sick of videos of middle-aged men trying to do pressups!

It seems everyone's at it now...

The goo and infection is for us sporners

The sad puppy and awful violence ones... I have no idea, they're awful.

I had to google "sporners".

Now I know. Confused

Where do you stand on tryphophobia inducing images?

OK just Googled sporner and it took me to Sporner's Corner. How have I been on here for best part of a decade and been unaware that this is a thing!

They don't bother me VeryBitchyRestingFace but I have a friend who hates them - she can't even make pancakes because it freaks her out when the batter bubbles.

I have just googled some pics. I think I might be mildly tryphophobic, and hyperdontia-phobic too. Sad

Rather partial to a nice blister bursting session though.

Sporn yes, poo no.

trafalgargal · 23/08/2016 01:24

I just block anyone who posts this crap ......

I reported a photo to Facebook the other day. Someone local was offering to "clear up" the local foxes with her dogs. Pic of her with dogs and what was left of a fox they'd caught. It was disgusting, but FB said it didn't violate any of their policies. but dare to put up a photo of a woman breastfeeding and you'll feel their full force Angry

The lily seeds and things give me a weird reaction but not negative. Just a bit odd.
