Yeah, and it’s about to be 2 deep 4 him.
And shattered glass 😱
What is the TV’s shadow? It seems like a pair of legs standing on a box and a small floating rectangle.
The book, meanwhile, looks like a convoluted mess. Crashing spaceship, T-Rex/Godzilla, and what might be Dracula’s castle. If there’s a coherent story in this, I have got to read it. Book title? :P
I can’t believe no one in the comments has told you yet. I want to tell you because I just learned about it last week! It’s horrible! A man in Russia, only legs & feet in the camera frame, squatted over an empty glass jelly jar with the lid on it, tons of lubrication, and he kept going until the entire jar was fully inserted in his rectum.
Then you can hear an explosion sound. But it was an implosion sound. It was the sound of the jar being crushed & glass shattered inside of him. The man didn’t make a sound. Complete stoic silence which lends more creepiness to the video.
Then we see tons of blood dripping out of him, down his legs, all over the floor. The man starts manually digging glass chunks out of his asshole. That’s all I remember. I never actually watched the video myself but that’s the description.
Follow up: he never went to the doctor for this injury because he says he didn’t want to deal with the embarrassment. He had some scarring. He says he healed within a couple weeks. He says he has no regrets. He makes tons of fringe kink videos, this was apparently nothing unusual for him. But he waited until the event was far enough in the past before he posted the video online, over a year after it happened. It happened in August a few years ago. He posted it in December a year and a half later.
This is like actually worse than just watching it, you’re a master storyteller.
Ah thank you, I wish I could direct you to the original source I got that from, THEY were epic master storyteller because what I gave was my own version from memory of what they wrote. I think it was an article on vice dot com or some similar publication.
Thank you! That text description is more than enough for me. Expertly told.
After reading this and the replies, I am legitimately not sure if this is a joke or not. I’m not going to go try to find out, but if this is a joke, this is an absolute master class. Bravo.
Very real yes and a very commonly mentioned piece of internet history
It’s unfortunately real.
It’s absolutely true. I am not clever enough to make up fiction.
Totally a joke. Go look it up yourself for proof
Yeah, I think I’m good. Thanks, though. :)
IIRC, didn’t he sort of shift his weight and the corner of the jar hit the ground and that’s what made it break?
I’m not going to find it and watch it again, but that’s what I recall from never unseeing that more than a decade ago.
Ah you actually saw the video. Thank you. The jar breaking from contact with the floor sounds a lot better than it breaking completely inside of him 😬
Oh it broke inside him alright. The jar was over halfway inserted.
Yeah, it was like a tragic accident. The theory was solid. A circle is the strongest shape for holding force like that. And IIRC he just sort of lost his balance and the corner touched the ground and that was it. Trooper of a guy to pull most of it out before going to the hospital.
How do I even find this video anymore? Do the kids today even use limewire? It occurs to me, I’ve seen worse now.
But he never even went to the hospital! 😱
How do you know this?
Because it was a detail included in the vice dot com(?) article I read, which I repeated from memory in everything I wrote up there.
I can’t imagine how did he shit after that.
I love how, in a roundabout way, you ended up demonstrating the point of the original image by providing us with “the jar guy incident” in a much more “engaging” literary form
I knew it was going to be bad, why did I read it anyway?
The TV’s shadow has been edited to a still from an old shock-gore vid, “1 man 1 jar”. I don’t recommend looking it up.
What is the TV’s shadow?
Trust me, you don’t want to know
If there was enough light coming from the screen, it wouldn’t look like this. Therefore, we can conclude the guy is looking at a powered off TV.
I think its supposed to be someone about to take a shit into a cup, but I’m really not certain
Keep the innocent, dont find the answer
Book title?
I happen to be reading the Sun Chronicles, a space opera with dinosaurs. No vampires though, but there are weird religious sects, genetically modified humans and space magic 🤷🏼 The best kind of convoluted mess.
Author’s still working on the 3rd volume though.
I’m 14 and this is so deep fr
E: I agree though that when a book clicks it paints a picture far more vivid than a screen ever could.
Too deep, without a safe recovery plan in case of failure.
How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t
Dunno man. TV just seems like plays in the magic frame.
Also things you watch spark the imagination if it’s a good piece of art
your talk about art sparking the imagination tells me you don’t see two legs and a jar in the tv shadow.
…or maybe you do, who am i to judge.
I mean, I wasn’t commenting on what on the wall. More about the perception of the media. But I think you know that.
I agree with the sentiment, I just found it to be a funny context to bring it up in ;)
Both are having fun \o/
ITT: People who need to take a closer look lol
Yeah, that T. rex in the book is clearly about to do something terrible.
I’ll admit I didn’t know what the shadow from the TV was until I read the comments. I went back to change my downvote to an upvote
Its actually so much funnier watching people compare the “blandness” of the TV to the book lmao.
“How I spend my leisure time is superior to how you spend your leisure time.”
As though trash books and thought-provoking television don’t exist.
Edit: oh wait… I see the actual joke. Thought-provoking television indeed.
Unless you have aphantasia, in which case books are either just text or very limited images.
The theater of my mind is not that great unfortunately
…and the jar breaks… oO
Tv can lead to imagination and books can leave no lasting impression.
However in recent years I’ve taken more to books because video programmes seem to be getting dumber.
Missing another kid farther to the left watching Andrew Tate on his phone.
Oof.
As someone with aphantasia I never got why people enjoyed reading
having synesthesia, descriptive text has a whole other layer i cant fully explain. words are pretty. lol
That’s the thing where your brain overlaps sensory information with areas for processing of other senses, no?
yes! the strongest overlap i have is music and colors/patterns. theres some cool synesthesia art people have made that depict it pretty well. this artist for example!
As someone without aphantasia, I don’t always quite get it either. Reading is often a last resort medium for me, but it does have it’s place. Plain text primarily engages my narrative imagination (where is the story going) and only a little bit of visual imagination (since it’s kind of hard to convey certain things like body language in text without being very boring), while for example a video might invoke narrative, visual, and auditory imagination. Video games are even better to me, as they engage narrative, visual, auditory, and decision making imagination. It’s about stimulation to me, the more coherent the better, and books just don’t seem to stimulate enough for my imagination to kick off to where it’s enjoyable to read.
As a person with aphantasia, I’ve enjoyed it since I was a child. But my parents read to me every night before bed for a long time, and so my hunch is that I latched onto it because of that positive association.
For me. Reading something myself vs. Having someone read to me are completely different.
I enjoy audio books way more than reading myself because it doesn’t pull as much of my focus.
When I read, I have to read, understand, process.
When I hear it, it’s just understand and process.
It would be the equivalent of having to read subtitles for an in person conversation rather than hearing their voice.
I can listen and process. I cannot process as well while reading because I’m focused on processing words
For me I rarely actively try to visualize what’s going on. Perhaps you haven’t found something that really sparks your interest in reading, I’ve only started reading a couple of years back.
Although, of course, I may be completely wrong and visualizing is a big part of reading that I simply haven’t realized
From what I understand is that people can read without subvocalizing because their brain can just simply pick up the meaning of groups of words together.
I cannot read without subvocalizing. Like I can skim and read only words that stand out to me and I’d get the gist of it. But to full comprehend everything I’d basically have to subvocalize every word.
To me there’s no difference between reading a chemistry text book or a romance novel. Just words I have to read to comprehend.
I’m sure I’d enjoy reading some things more than others. Like a story with a compelling plot and not a lot of visual word fluff.
But reading pages and pages of words just so I can know what happens next in the story when a simple sentence would suffice doesn’t sound enjoyable to me.
Kind of like how instead of reading the book you could read the cliff notes. At best I’m only going to remember the cliff note facts after reading the book. “How the author tells the story” is lost on me because I’d rather them just get to the point. All the word fluff of setting up a scene are just facts that I’m not going to commit to memory.
For a second my ingenuous mind suggest me he was watching soccer. Then internet clicked in.
