messed up the formating but a good (not disgusting) link

I have a right to ignore questions that are no one's business. This isn't a Nazi or Communist thread.

don't be so sure...

I think buffandmaxsmom gave the game away pretty early.

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.

pic of people with geometry heads makes me feel bad for the lady on the left. she is isolated, unable to share her geometry head with others.

jeff's woodfinger, though, is all time. so crepey!

what are you talking baout, c? their heads are linked by the shared geometry thought cloud!

xp

thought linkage is not the same ;_;

a lot of b&mm's recent posts are like headshop-blacklight-poster fetish art for trypophiliac acid-heads.

I'm an ex-hippie, Pillbox ... but seriously, I don't agree with your assessment. And it's TRYPOPHOBIC.

yeah but he's right

speaking as a trypophiliac acid-head i mean...

there's no such thing as

Those crochet-looking fractals are pretty neat. And I do think that if people who love high-end stereo equipment can call themselves an audiophile (and conversely audiophobes for those who hate/have an irrational fear of hi-fi) then there's no reason one cannot self-label as a trypophile. This thread is drenched in philia rather than phobia anyway.

WmC or some mod somewhere, could you change the title of this thread to Tripophilia already?

hahaaaaa, I thought about doing that last night

The accepted name for the phobia is trypophobia. Since there's no such phobia or word as tripophilia, it would be too confusing. What's the importance of the name change? If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

There's no such word as trypophobia either, in any dictionary I can find. "Phobia" does not accurately or fully cover the range of reactions in this thread.

well see, there are people who are so deathly afraid of perforated horrors that they'd never in a million years be able to look at the stuff in this thread. they're trypophobics!

and there are people who are so cuckoo for holey puffs that they can't stop looking. we're trypophilics!

there's no such phobia or word as tripophilia

So, ...there's no such phobia...as tripophilia....

airtight argument.

I think this thread title is a Solomonic compromise.
