    I looked up The Rettendon Murders and searched images and found it pretty gory if the images are real.

    Yeeeah, I was going to say that too. Just...no...never. MY EYES.


    Oh, and back in what feels like the early days of the internet (not early-early, just early enough that many of us were still kinda innocent), goatse. I would look up when that came out before some smartarse says that it was only in _______, but ...no. I learned my lesson years ago.

    Nope.

    Rotten.com prepared us for all of that.

    I love how "googling" has become a verb now. Talk about the ultimate compliment to someone's invention.

    Back in school I googled "black holes" for a project. That was an eye opener.
    Thankfully Google have improved their filters since then.

    Watched a video on Bradford stadium fire as it was it's 30 yr anniversary last year.
    Some of the scenes were horrific :(
    I'm glad I learnt more about it, but those images still haunt me.

    Lots of things. Looking up accidents and disasters and stuff, just expecting to see car wreckage or buildings from AFTER the recovery operation but actually seeing gory stuff.

    The Kevin Cosgrave Youtube clip of his telephone call as the South Tower of the WTC collapsed. The end of the call - christ. :(

    And of course, blue waffle.

    I once needed a picture of Sooty for a website I was working on at work, went to Google Images to grab some of the loveable little rascal.

    Was instead greeted with lots of pictures of Goatse in Google's preview. :(

    Anyways, Google "Degloving" or "Prolapse" for some jolly ol' fun :pac:

    When Boyzone were in their heyday if you googled Boyzone it brought you to a gay porn site. :)

    I got my first pc in 1998 & there was no Google at the time. Boyzone started early to mid 90s. When I say googled I mean searched. It's a bit hoovering with a Dyson. Technically you can't hoover without a hoover if you get my meaning. :)

    I thought Porsche Girl was going to be some cute chick doing durty dodgy things with a Porsche.

    Just read a description. No, doesn't sound like my cup of tea.

    Also just read a description. Not something I'd want to be looking at tbh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,809 ✭✭✭✭smash


    I stumbled up Porsche Girl a few years back... horrible story and horrible imagery.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    I learnt about Porsche Girl on here, definitely took me by surprise and that was after visiting Rotten and the likes.

    In a similar vein that email chain story about the Colombian girl who was knocked down by a drunk driver stayed with me for a while.
    A more recent one was a vine showing a machine where you can spray water at a cat as he's locked inside a Perspex box, it was Asian.
    Didn't "search" for either of them but took a while to shake them both off, obviously different scales there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,554 ✭✭✭valoren


    It was a horrific story indeed.

    What I find really disturbing is that people would send the photo's to the girl's family with subject lines reading;

    'Woohoo Daddy! Hey daddy, I'm still alive'

    Thing's like that make you lose faith in humanity.

    The minute I read the word 'machine' I got flashbacks of a video that I say years ago of someone using one of these to dispose of dead animals, including a horse... Almost puked

    Girl crashed Porsche at high speed, leaving her dead body unbelievably mutilated. Police photos taken at the scene got leaked.

    That's a mad video alright, yet weirdly fascinating. The one I saw was more of an incredibly cruel thing as the cat was clearly distressed, it was played off for lols too making it more disturbing.
