Things that creep you out (post a vid or pic)

lots of things creep me out.
but when people make a robot that looks like a giant headless dog that moves with the precision of a giant bug...i get creeped out.
wait until you see them KICK the thing. (36 seconds in)

now post something that unnerves you a little. pics or vids, your call.

SoulfumeInc on Mar 21 '08 at 10:25am

^gah!

oh man I hate spiders

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 10:26am

pretty much ANY time someone makes these.

nastyyyyyyyy

tesco on Mar 21 '08 at 10:37am

the british prime minister Gordon Brown's weird mouth twitch makes me feel nauseous

EricDiaz on Mar 21 '08 at 10:39am

ahahaha, i've never noticed that before.

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 12:20pm

i can't find a pic or youtube of it, but you know that scene in ridley scott's LEGEND with the faceless black, creepy thin dancer?

that traumatized me as a kid, but i couldn't look away.

creepy internet people creep me the hell out

jublin on Mar 21 '08 at 12:46pm

this is sort of a love/creep relationship

mad cat on Mar 21 '08 at 12:46pm

What ever that finger thing is, it makes me feel like vomiting. I feel sick.
blech.

littlem on Mar 21 '08 at 12:49pm

that first vid you posted, trav, is incredible! the way that thing stabilizes itself, etc. indeed creepy!

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 12:53pm

aw man all my mouth/eye pictures are pulled.
bummer.

yeah it's weird to see something without a head act seemingly intelligently, yet so precise.

i can see 100 ft tall armies of these things walking over a city...

t4sh4 on Mar 21 '08 at 12:54pm

after I took this I felt like they were crawling on me the rest of the day! gah!

talking dogs are getting more and more common- a sign of evolution?
dogs taking over scares me a bit, but at least we'll be fed and be given a little shack in the backyard when they overthrow us.

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 12:58pm

i don't think there is anyone that isn't afraid of spiders- to some degree.

i tend to worry that every spider in my house is a brown recluse.
their bites rot your freaking flesh off.

Lhiiiz on Mar 21 '08 at 1:00pm

I should never have opened this blog!!!!! ...although, the dogbot is cool in a freakish kind of way.

nothing really creeps me out, but here's some things that I really like.

tesco on Mar 21 '08 at 1:10pm

I wont bother posting a picture because they look exactly like real babies... you can even get some that 'breath'... I'm talking about the tragically sad fake babies that some (mentally ill) women spend thousands of pounds on... I saw a documentary on it recently, fucking bizarre

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 1:11pm

eww, tesco, like real(sex)dolls, but babies for women?
NEVER heard of it.

martiandrivein on Mar 21 '08 at 1:12pm

Alot of people are creeped out by Ron mueck's work. I loved seeing it in person.

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 1:15pm

let's see if this one sticks. if so, sorry that it's a repost. if not, sorry it's another red X.

so- so far most of us are creeped out by robots and children and puppets or otherwise things looking or acting alive that shouldn't.

tesco on Mar 21 '08 at 1:17pm

neither had I... one lady spent literally thousands on clothes for her 'baby', pushes it around in public like nothing is weird... when asked why she didnt have a real baby she said it was because real babies are messy and would ruin the clothes and toys she bought for it... she even had a routine for how to clean her (very expensive) pram, had separate wheels for inside and outside... she was basically nuts

Tess Fondie on Mar 21 '08 at 1:17pm

I love Ron Mueck!!! Go Ludo!

I would post up a picture of the brain maggots, but last time I got in huge trouble for doing that

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 1:18pm

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 1:20pm

oh i meant to add about my last clip:
guy invents head that looks like over the hill pornstar.
mm-hm.

phones on Mar 21 '08 at 1:28pm

whoa! that bigdog thinks its people!

iPear on Mar 21 '08 at 1:32pm

holy fuck at that brown recluse bite.

HOLY.

FUCK.

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 2:30pm

Rambunkcious on Mar 21 '08 at 2:34pm

there is this certain turtle or frog thing..that carries its babies around in these holes in its back and it creeps me out to no end but i dont know the name of it so i cant post a picture i just remember seeing it on the discovery channel and then having nightmares about it

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 3:08pm

yeah! it's a frog- i didn't see it on tv but in a nature book as a kid- very creepy.

it's like it has big zit craters in it's back that they hide in, and when they come out, the frog looks almost like a honeycomb...

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 3:20pm

eeew, here it is with the unhatched eggs on it's back.

and more:

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 3:26pm

oh it's the surinam toad, btw

SEVEN-HUNDRED on Mar 21 '08 at 3:27pm

Barf! Are those finger things near the top for real?

What the hell is up with that?

God - if only i could unsee things...

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 3:29pm

i'm 99.99999% sure those are lamprey mouths pshopped on
:)

iPear on Mar 21 '08 at 3:30pm

those are lamprey faces photoshopped on to it.

man, that frog is almost as creepy as that dude holding the biscuit burger.

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 3:34pm

anushka on Mar 21 '08 at 3:38pm

You probably couldn't get a more directly opposed upbringing to the one I had, which involved going to football matches, picking fights with boys, and wearing dungarees, a lot.

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 3:38pm

still a classic of unparalleled creeptitude

anushka on Mar 21 '08 at 3:41pm

The reason those girls look so sad is because no-one has showed them how to climb a tree.

anushka on Mar 21 '08 at 3:42pm

Chris Cunningham is good.

travis76 on Mar 21 '08 at 3:42pm

-odd children
-puppets,dummies,robots
-insects
-animals doing unnatural things
--body anomalies

The best compliments I ever received here (that haven't been deleted):

-from the master:

I think there will be a few different subs in the top 20 once all the loves threadless have finsihed scoring. Travis has to be up there somewhere, his last few subs have lifted the bar on here--------

-from the co-owner:
skaw on Jul 07 '06
yea this is super neat, i would wear it

-from a blogger:

starr226 on Jul 07 '06
I don't know if anyone else who's been hanging around threadless for far too long (like myself) gets really excited when under-printed designers put out a sure thing - but I know I do. I feel the same way about this as when I first saw "No Peeking" by Jublin. That "THIS is a print and it couldn't happen to a better person."
Enjoy your...uh...12 pack of Red Bull.
