The picture itself is disturbing.
But I laughed out loud when I saw 1234 using it as an avatar.

You Aussies have a better sense of humor than the Lounge crew. I used the avatar and got chewed to pieces. :(

Glad to see onetwothreefour put it to better use. :)
 
idunno dude, you know I do not take much seriously but I often read these forums while eating breakfast...

and the inside of a guy's colon is not something I want to see while enjoying some Weetbix.
 
I had never even noticed it before.......lol.

But i think its hilarious........Its so small anyways..........and thankfully you cant smell it...........now that would be something to winge about.

But personally I'm just glad he didn't use goatse girl.

*shudder*

at least it wasn't tubgirl or lemonparty.

Goatse.cx
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goatse.cx

Goatse.cx (pronounced "goat see" or "goat see dot cx", often truncated to goatse, often referenced by one of its current URLs such as goat.cx, and occasionally called goatsex) is one of the most infamous Internet shock sites. Its front page contains a sexually explicit picture, hello.jpg, featuring a man wearing a gold ring on his left hand (and nothing else) manually stretching his anus and rectum to a diameter roughly equal to the width of his hand. Below his gaping anus, the man's dangling penis and testicles are visible. The site is commonly linked to by Internet trolls in order to shock unsuspecting users with the image.


hah! see brad, wiki called you a troll! :p 8)
 
To tell you the truth ive never noticed 1234s before...

If people find some offensive turn off the function that displays then...

oh and i suggest you stay out of SLR if you dont like offensive ones...cause ones with people having sex would obviouslly freak you out to... 8)
 
i don't like it, and moe, yours is dumb too.

whatever happened to naked girls?
 
smart-e: that's tubgirl, as mentioned.

it's an asian lady lying on her back in a bathtub, spraying herself (on the face) with what appears to be a rather severe case of her own diarrhea. quite fetching, i must say.
 
I can't read any of 1234's posts now because I have to quickly scroll down.

Images really affect me, especially repulsive ones. It all started this one time, when I was eating my breakfast, and a friend sent me an email. I opened it up and saw the white face of a woman immersed in a bath full of runny, sloppy and abosutely filfthy shit. It's been over 5 years now and I still haven't been able to eat weetbix.
 
Brilliant. I can actually add moderators to my ignore list.
Brad, when you change your av, please inform me :)
 
I don't know any of 4 men

I've seen this one of 3 men though

sigh


there for the same purpose as brads - to offend people


Was not work safe

^am i going to have add you to my ignore list now?

I don't know what it is about images... But i think images are something special. Call me an art geek whatever... BUt, I find am affected by images, perhaps more than words (they do say a picture tells a thousand words).

And i won't say that i am not offended because i am; not in the "you have insulted me, me eyes have been soiled" but in the, i don't want to look at that, so why should i have to?

In response to the 'turn of all avatars' function. Well i don't want to. I like being able to scroll down a page and see who has written, and quickly. and by turning off avatars, i will have to read.

I understand that in 1234s case, he was doing it get attention. To try and see what kind of reaction would be made. but, i just don't like it.

I don't think it's a work warning in the sense you shouldn't look at it at work. But i use those work warnings, to go, okay, well i probably don't want to look at this. Like i have said if i wanted to look at some guy's gaping anus. I'd look it up.

*sigh* 1234 doesn't seem to want to change it. And it ultimatley is his choice whether or not he changes his avatar. And it is not my place to say whether or not he should. But, i honestly don't think that these kind of images which are everywhere in society are necessary... they don't need to be spread around everywhere. We don't need to see these images when we are just doing mundane things like reading a message board.

I don't think even ten years ago, this would be acceptable. And, i honestly don't think it is now. I'm all for respecting yourself, and those aroudn you. And, this isn't either.

*edit* - phrased a little better now.
