I fucking hate the existence of gore material for entertainment pleasures. I've always tried to avoid them at all costs and always will, but I just hate their existence. Just reading the informations about them, reading the reactions of people make me cringe and weep for humanity. What sick mind would enjoy stuff like that ?

I'm against censorship but I'd be GLAD to see these stuff get erased from the face of the earth.

I'm quite sure I have seen more gore material than anyone else on this forum (4chan, rotten, liveleak, bestgore, some blog that doesn't exist anymore etc.) because I find gore interesting, I find that it broadens the mind in some way, of course I don't enjoy it in "that way". On the other hand, sometimes the violence gets a bit too disturbing and this stuff stays in your mind for a very long time.

Edit: Oh, and the harshest and most inhumane type of gore is animal cruelty.

Let's put it this way: I'm twice as old as you, and I've consumed gore material since I was around eight, or even earlier. I never had a particular fascination in it, but I was also never repulsed by it. For me, it's simply always been there.

I would argue that there are two types of gore, a pornographic type (gore for the sake of gore), and an aesthetic type (gore fore the sake of completeness or realism). Evidently, a site such as rotten.com (which was one of the first internet sites I've ever visited, because it was cool) displays gore of the pornographic type. I've never been interested in that, but as I said, not repulsed either, so that I consumed a lot of it with my mates. But I have always watched a lot of violent movies, and during my puberty, horror movies were indeed what I was interested in the most. Gore just comes with that, the same way you don't have to watch porn to see tits... they're in every other movie anyway. In the same sense, I used to draw cartoon doodles which had a lot of gore in them, not because I was particularly keen on drawing gore, but because I often drew scenes of cartoony violence that demanded it. I'm not particularly interested in violence either. Again, I just consider it an integral part of narrative fiction - it's in pretty much every movie. Not all my doodles were violent, but all of them were over the top in a very cartoony way. And cartoony violence simply lends to the funniest results, and that was all that I ever cared for. A devil ripping out an angel's heart simply has a certain quality to it beyond any sort of pornographic fascination with either violence or gore. Plus, like any self-respecting teen, I simply wanted to shock and offend. My parents, my teachers, my classmates... you have to push the envelope for that.
 
I've not been particularly productive so far today, but that's in part because of some unplanned library runs eating up my time.
 
For the first time ever, I believe, I've called into work because of the roads. I can't see past the end of my driveway, so I'm not going to try to drive 45 miles (72+ km) at half speed.

Meh. I really didn't want to burn a vacation day like this, but I don't want to spend the morning in the ditch.
 
About the gore issue, I only meant the pornographic gore thing, not the, say, Tarantino type of gore. Like videos of people inserting screwdrivers to their penises, etc.

I've heard about many of these things, thankfully I'm not weak enough to lose to curiosity and see them myself.

Hmm! I didn't actually notice what the conversations were about before I posted that. I just came here to post it. Now it does seem a bit out of place - posting a picture of food after all the :turd: :lol:
