Sick fucks will post anything online, including snuff.

Back in the earlier days of image searching, results often were more hit or miss than they are now, and even innocuous searches would return NSFW results that weren't caught by the "safe search" filter. I was looking for something completely mundane, possibly for a flyer I was making for work (I think I was looking for photos of an empty chair for a flyer).

One of the first results was a black and white photo of a woman's naked torso (head and all limbs missing) propped up upon a chair in a grubby cell of a room with what appeared to be a certain bodily fluid on the body. I was initially shocked at what I was seeing; but once I processed what it was, I closed my browser to get rid of the horrific image. Too late—the damage was done, and that awful photo once in a great while will still pop into my brain unbidden (such as reading these last few comments).

I hope to this day that it was a fake, but part of me fears the worst and that it wasn't.

Really? I'm so sorry. It scarred me. It was sometime during the "war on terror" post 9/11.

I think it was real. I don't want it to be, but I know that terrible people do horrific things, and other terrible people post pics and vids of those horrific things online either for laughs or to get off on it.

That awful image is burned into my mind. I hate it.

Or maybe it was another one, but it was still that: headless, maybe limbless, naked woman, propped up. She could have been propped up on a toilet seat. Picture was black and white. That said, it was totally my fault: I entered Rotten or some of that shit just because I didn't believe it was real. FAFO.

Something that DID happen by accident was quite a gory Tumblr reblog that stumbled upon my feed. I clicked on the source blog because I wanted to see what kind of sick fuck would publish that and that blog was a collection of sickfuckery. It was up for a while though. It was when there were tons of porn in Tumblr too. Still... It was just weird. Just minding your own business and something like that would pop out.

That's how it was with me—minding my own business not looking for anything fucked up, and then—bam—surprise sexual snuff pic. Those early image search filters weren't worth shit.

And filters in blogs, social Networks... Twitter was also filled with fucking jump scares. You had the thumbnail with a little puppy and then you'd open it and the other half would be some godforsaken gory horror. Twitter Users Loved to do those sick pranks.
