Oblomov · 07/06/2013 19:31

I can't STOP Clucking on it. Tis vile.

TheOneWithTheHair · 07/06/2013 19:33

Anyone who hasn't done so yet DO NOT CLICK THAT LINK. Sorry to shout but it may change your life and not for the better. It doesn't matter if they are fake. It was a fake one that got me and I am seriously affected by it.

Dudes, people with holes in, what?? On the one hand, I really don't want to click. On the other hand, I really want to know

Can someone elaborate? What do you mean 'eyes'?

RedCurls · 07/06/2013 21:35

Hahaha fck it I'm clicking.

RedCurls · 07/06/2013 21:39

OK it links to a google images search, the top line of pics is fine...

I quickly glanced at the second row & saw the eye thing, didn't scroll any further. Smile

ProjectGainsborough · 07/06/2013 21:56

WHAT eye thing??

Might get DH to click for me. I am of a sensitive (yet incredibly nosy) disposition.

ProjectGainsborough · 07/06/2013 21:57

Oh, you weird, weird fuckers.

Ewww.

BoysWillGrow · 07/06/2013 22:10

I've never heard of the nail thing, or of the phobia of holes thing. But clicking that has made me feel all weird and I have no idea why. Blush

mejon · 07/06/2013 22:14

The first rule of MN is to never click on google links surely! Having said that, I did and wish I hadn't. Never googled dragonbutter though Grin.

DearPrudence · 07/06/2013 22:18

I knew about the phobia thing, and I don't have it at all. But that first link actually made my skin crawl a bit.

BinksToEnlightenment · 08/06/2013 07:48

I strongly advise not clicking it. I'm normally very morbidly curious and of the feeling that I can handle most gross things. I have a very strong stomach. I even scrolled through about thirty or forty of the pictures only thinking they were particularly yucky.

I woke up at 2am wanting to cry and be sick because they were still in my head.

Seriously, don't go there!

lougle · 08/06/2013 07:51

You're serious, aren't you? Confused The eye thing is superimposed.

AntoinetteCosway · 08/06/2013 11:26

Oh holy fuck. Why why why???

Trills · 08/06/2013 11:28

I bought Marie Claire and I was hoping you'd be helpful with application tips but instead you are linking pictures of entirely unrelated unpleasantness? Hmm

What has the world come to?! Shock

Trills · 08/06/2013 11:28

None of you should watch Pan's Labyrinth, by the way.

BinksToEnlightenment · 08/06/2013 11:54

It's not that the pictures are real. Things don't have to be real to be deeply disturbing.

Trills · 08/06/2013 11:58

This is real. I wish I had one right now

(don't click if you don't like holes)

I'm not quite sure why " a bunch of beads" triggers your fear of holes. Aren't sticky-uppy beads the opposite of holes?

happyyonisleepyyoni · 08/06/2013 12:36

I made the mistake of clicking on the link too, horrific. it made me feel sick, all itchy and like things were crawling over me. I have never been affected like that by pictures before. What kind of sicko creates things like that anyway?

MarshaBrady · 08/06/2013 12:48

I avoided all threads about the caterpillar film and didn't google. Then clicked on a thread about Ikea and found out what it was about.

Finding it hard to get what you're all talking about... But a strong reaction is stopping me from clicking.

Jbck · 08/06/2013 13:06

Actual Ciate site for info www.ciate.co.uk/nails/wow-kits/caviar
I got a set from Poundland yesterday for DD1, tried myself lovely deep purple colour but the beads came off first time I dried my hands, even though I tried to be careful.
Think a top coat would spoil the effect.
Had been going to treat myself to the real think as Amazon had a couple of sets for £13 but Im not sure now.
Anyone used the real stuff and found they stay on?

SuperiorCat · 08/06/2013 14:30

Marsha and other interested parties, it is a google image link to the phobia mentioned earlier.

I hope that some of the photos are photoshopped, but anyone who wants to PM me I will give more detail - don't want to add it to the thread as they are strangely disturbing.
