What's with the pics of Al Gore, the rocker, and what looks like a coach (with this hand on his head)? Are they trypophobic? Just curious.

buff, this isnt a trypobia group. This is just a random thread about it on a generalist board. I dont know if you're aware.

OK, I had been going by the title of the page. A great majority of the photos are trypophobic images. That's why I was confused.

This thread is about trypophobia. It's on a general-interest board called I Love Everything. ILE is part of a collection of general and special interest boards called ILX. This thread is about trypophobia. There are several thousand other threads on ILX.

hey shit, welcome back!

please do not fuck me up with meat hands.

Yah what WmC said.

Yes, I saw the list of the other special interest groups. Since I've had trypophobia since I was a child (along with my sister), I now have the internet and can see how many others have it and what images skeeve people out. The facebook group has over 4,000 members. This group is more edgy, which is why I joined, and then I got tossed out. The offending photo is posted in the facebook trypo gallery, which contains over 2,000 photos. Anyway, very few people are offended by that photo. {I wasn't the one who posted it by the way.) There was a debate as to what caused the injury to the woman's hand. It was decided it was caused by a paper shredder. Since the facebook group is more conservative than this one, I was taken aback when people here complained about it. The only image that facebook forbids is nudity, which is why the "lotus boob" or "lotus testicles" are not allowed to be posted there. FYI, a number of trypophobes suffer from other underlying issues, such as anxiety disorders, OCD, ADD, depression, bipolar disorders, and others. Just sayin'.

It was decided it was caused by a paper shredder.

a sentence too far

i have the sense that this will go oddly. congrats whoever.

A trypophobic girl in Tumblr made this object to describe her trypophobia. She states that she would've made it "worse" but she decided she couldn't handle it.

polkaphobiaphilia

Even the dog has dots.

that lil pup totally gives me the heebie-jeebies

saw a surinam toad today! no young'ins in her back, though. (oh, this is ytth, not just1n3.)

do you live in The Republic of Suriname by any chance?

I googled Little Dot and it's an old comic book character (1949-1942) obsessed with dots and spots. I'm wondering if the guy who drew it had trypophobia and didn't realize it. Weird.

Well I'm not okay with stuff like "how do you wipe your ass" either but you know, ILX is a many-splendoured thing etc

The tables and seats that face away from the bar are for trypophobes (or so I'm told).

is awful

I gather the Netherlands has a lot of Surinamese fast food takeaways, since Surinam is a former Dutch colony and there are around a million Surinamese living in .nl.

The food sounds interesting but I fear if I ordered one I'd be unable to eat much, with images of Suriname toads flicking through my mind all the time.

Hi buffandmaxsmom!

Hi Russ

Latham, unable to watch your video per YouTube.

buffandmaxsmom, do you have trypophobia or trypophilia? You seem more fascinated by this stuff than phobic.

WmC: Trypophobia. There's no such thing as trypophilia.

Anything that someone can be -phobic about, someone else can be -philic about.

just click "watch on youtube"

Ignore the above

To post Youtube vids on ILX, just post the URL, without any tags.

Wmc: Sorry, what is a tag?

When I post a video on facebook from YouTube, I click on "share" and copy on paste the web link on the page. A description of the video, a still pic of the video, and the arrow to start it shows up. Here, only the link shows like the boiling bubbles shows.

good eye

LOL

Tags are the little bits of instruction between brackets that indicate that something should be bold or italicized or an image link or a URL link or whatnot. In "[ img ] (image location) [ /img ]" the things on either side of (image location) are tags.

To post Youtube vids here, just post the video's URL from your browser's location bar; don't use the Embed instructions.

OK, got it. FYI, I wasn't using tags.

<3

How have you been posting images on this thread for a week without using tags?
