EricJ Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 just had this conversation with some people, but it seems that Google image search has traumatized more than one person around here... So what was your worst image search that you wouldn't wish anyone to ever see for me it was a tie between: Spider Bite Bed Sores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonherald Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 for me definitely Beast men... it's a minefield out there and a lot of the time the thought of it doesn't hit you in the face until you search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skya Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Kim Possible. I was looking for photo reference for a Halloween costume and boy did I get a shocker. There's nothing quite so scarring as pron of your favorite kids show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Tell my 7 year old that - they regularly google game cheats and walk throughs on their PS3 games and my son ended up on a pr0n site for teens last week. Needless to say it caught his interest and it wasn't until my daughter caught him that he thought he was in for the whoopin' of his life. Since then I've had to put some blockers up.

Wren Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I can see where unexpected horrors await in searches for Kim Possible and beast men. What I'm not getting is why you wouldn't expect to get traumatized searched for bed sores and spider bites. ;-> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Without trying to get too graphic, I once typed in PAINTING FACES for help with just that. It opened a whole new world to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I'm afraid to try googling that, Jim, but at the same time curious as I can't imagine what horrors might be associated with that. Can you give a hint (still without getting too graphic, of course...)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supervike Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Speaking of the intraweb and such... I used to have a neighbor that would delight in showing me disgusting images from the web. Like the victim of a motorcyle accident, or someone on fire, or other strange and disturbing images. Thankfully the guy moved away. Why the hell would he want to share those images with others? I suppose there is a morbid curiosity, but I still find it odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 yeah, I have one "friend" who I swear his one joy in life is to try to trick people into opening wildly inappropriate images at work. oh, I did do a search yesterday for "elephant" because we were having a debate as to whether they had ankles (it was a slow day at work), and I immediately ended up staring at a 5 foot long penis...

matty1001 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 My dad gets images like that. Not because of a love of death, but he is an industry medic working on ship yards. So he see's alot of mechanically related injuries and deaths. And the get sent around to show the dangers etc... The last set he had was a pressure pipe had exploded some where in India (these things have something like 20000x the pressure of a car tire) and the pipe cap shot of decapitating this poor fella's skull and his brain was scattered over a mangle of pipes and concrete. Safety first kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritual Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I followed a link in a political forum once that led to another forum where American, British etc. soldiers who had been in Iraq or Afghanistan posted photos from their operations. It was pretty appalling, especially reading the accompanying "discussions" (i.e. expressions of mirth and snide remarks about the victims). Some of the victims might very well have been rebels, but that doesn't make any of it any less distasteful. That's probably the worst things I've seen on the net, and I really can't understand why people post stuff like that and why anyone actively search for it.

Hinton Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 You all do know that there is a filter on Google, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiccanpony Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 You all do know that there is a filter on Google, right? No I didn't.....will look into it, thanks Hinton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 (it was a slow day at work), and I immediately ended up staring at a 5 foot long penis... I'm sorry Eric, but that very well could be the most humorous thing you've ever written. I'd make that my signature if it weren't so racy!!

goblyn13 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 No I didn't.....will look into it, thanks Hinton Easiest thing to do, is at the top of google: If it says SafeSearch is on, it means the filters are active, if it doesn't click on the preferences link on the right of the buttons: then on the preferences page: choose your level of filtering.

Sculpta the squig Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 "WABBA"; nothing really explicit, but scary nonetheless *shiver* Squig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avelorn Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Oh. well there was this image I got a couple of years back from another of these so called "friends" who liked to send links of horrible horrible stuff. MILD WARNING, DESCRIPTION AHEAD: Well at first a couldn't quite see what it was. It looked green-brown.. no wait a green-brown fountain right towards the camera? What is that.. is that a butt? Is that a human laying butt-up in a bathtub? And a brown fountain...and.. and suddenly the entire image hit me like a sledgehammer. I wanted to rip out my eyes. @Jim: Still intrigued by this face painting thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thryth Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Maybe Supervike has access to a secret, extra-explicit option for the search that the rest of us don't know about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
