Trypophilia and Trypophobia: A Picture Thread? (Not exactly NSFW but some deeply disturbing images in here)

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.

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

^ not enough holes

There might be one in his shiny metal ass.

This thread is great, as long as I have images off.

I have been posting images with tags, not videos.

Yes.

This thread makes me sorry I even mentioned this damn thing on ILX.

Well, its been a while since we had some entertaining random googlers? :)

True :)

i'm buffandmaxsmom

buzza: What??

buzza is the mother of your cats.

OK, buzza, you're welcome to give Maxie his insulin injections twice a day if you're his mom!

i'm his dad

It's being said that trypophobia is not really a phobia, which means "irrational fear", but being disgusted when seeing images such as holes, clusters and patterns.

Be nice, folks, cuz I've got lots more disgusting pictures to post .... heheheheh
