...fucking gross-ass--FUCKING GROSS ASS--video that some of the rest of you may have seen of some guy getting his teeth pulled. I'm talking about this because it bothered the shit out of me, and will continue to. God damnit.
So, for those of you who are not yet aware of this video, the guy gets his teeth pulled and under his teeth, in that cavity where the teeth used to be, is this swarm, this herd, of maggots. In his gums.
Maggots in his gums. Squirming and poking their heads out of the empty tooth-hole.
This is the closest I've been to vomiting in a long time. Just thought I'd share.
Fuck that's nasty.
Why do you people watch these things?
People are disgusting.
Okay I'll go with this: perhaps people watch it for story inspiration. Seriously, if you're up for writing a story where things get one more level of fucked up than 'normal', a bit like some of the ones in Palahniuk's Haunted, then that's got to be up there with the gold material. Wouldn't write that sort of material myself but the idea has to be worth a mention somewhere when I'm looking for a bit of grossness.
(And I'll resist trying to find the video because I'm about to have dinner.)
Please don't.

I can't help it. I'm easily amused.
If you need somebody to talk to, my pm box is always open.
I had something similar to me happen a long time ago, probably around 2000. It was still internet 1.0. Maybe 1.5. But anyway, this guy at work mentions this website he likes, which will go unnamed here, and out of some morbid curiosity and naivety, I went home and checked it out. I stumbled across a video. This was before YouTube, though I had broadband for the first time (DSL).
The video I saw was REAL. I was DAMAGED BY IT. Unfortunately, I'll never forget it, though the video has kind of faded away, and I can vaguely recall it now without becoming sick to my stomach.
As I write this, I'm thinking it would make a great short story. So there's that.
There was one I saw of a tremendous boil being lanced and drained. (The cause was some sort of exotic fly, I think.) 'Drained' is a bit tame. 'Drained' like you might 'drain' a garbage can full of rotten vanilla pudding by punching a hole in it with a crowbar and then giving it a bear hug.
I don't seek this sort of thing out, but I'm not scared of it either.
"IT WAS ON FACEBOOK!"
Such videos don't bother me, but only because I can't smell it.
Jeez, really? I had a dream like that, and planned to write a story to see what people thought.
Way to beat me to my horror story, reality.
Maggots in a wound is good news to be honest, I know that sounds strange but the miltary used them back in the day before modern medicine popped along. It would stop gangrene in a lot of cases and saves people from having thier limbs cutt off. Simply pop them into the wound wait for them to eat the dead cells and then they cawl out. Job done. Not too sure how they would get out under a tooth, but ye get the point.
Bad news, Utah: modern medicine still uses maggots to clean necrotic flesh. They are really good at what they do! Go brush your teeth.
And I just watched a whole bunch of videos of liposuction surgeries for a story. It was awful. But I'm grateful. Has there ever been a better tool than YouTube for horror research?

True dat. In horror, only the Abyss itself beats YT. And with the Abyss I mean the one that stares back at us.
You think that's bad, try being suckered into a video of a sex-change surgery... Slicing the penis into a fake vagina. Wow.
That, and two girls, one cup...
So where's the video??
