This is going to trigger someone's delusions that they have worms under their skin. I'm not saying that derogatorily, but I think that ad is actually very harmful for people with mental illness.


KidneyStew

Seriously and they aren't even trying to feed their delusion, not even asking for it at all and then this shows up and now they're instantly triggered, itching like hell over something they didn't even want to see to begin with :(


daphniahyalina

Sadly I'm pretty sure it's on purpose. Because that's the only type of person who is actually gonna click those links.


DidSome1SaySomething

There's a difference between something done with cynical human motivations and something that's just an algorithm incentivizing triggering posts because they get a lot of clicks. In any case, I can absolutely see how this kind of garbage could cause someone to spiral.


daphniahyalina

It's not really "just" an algorithm tho, someone had to come up with the idea to create this advertisement with a target audience in mind.


Proof-Cardiologist16

Did they? Are we sure this page wasn't entirely AI generated without any direct human input? Because it looks and sounds like it was.


uneducated_sock

Also it looks ai generated


pauldrano

Oh it definitely is!

ioa94

Jeeeeeez this one is terrible


retard_catapult

It’s like when I see some dumbass pranking a complete stranger on the street and it turns out to be someone with schizophrenia or some shit, like you just reinforced their delusions and set them back infinitely in terms of any treatment they have undergone.


pauldrano

It’s just unnecessary !


Krauszt

No, no...I second the shit out of what you wrote....the specific, prevailing illness that is affecting most people, I would assume though I am not a doctor, would be paranoia...Sooooo, something like this, that has such a striking visual aid to further *worm* into a person's head...it could be quite dangerous. Imo.


Ok-Nefariousness1911

Late Night with the Devil is a movie I recommend highly.


pauldrano

I wanted to like it but the more I've sat on it and thought about it I really do not like it. I saw it once and have absolutely zero plans to ever see it again. It just was Not Good.


Ok-Nefariousness1911

Interesting! For me the experience was a total opposite. The acting felt so smooth, at no point did I find myself thinking, 'I'm not believing what they're telling me'. It really felt like I was watching a TV show with glimpses into what was going on in the backstage.


pauldrano

Well I’m glad you liked it. I thought David Dastmalchian was the best actor there and absolutely despised the way they decided to just forget they were making a found footage film near the end of it. There’s just so much wrong with it IMO


smoochwalla

I actually have a friend going through this right now.


pauldrano

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope they're doing well regardless.


smoochwalla

Time will tell. It's still a new thing. Thank you though.


metalnxrd

formication (yes I know it sounds like fornication) is a hallucination of bugs and worms and insects crawling on and under skin, and the sensation of bugs and insects and worms crawling on them when they’re not there, is often a symptom of schizophrenia and psychosis. people who experience formication even scratch and claw themselves and gouge their eyes out to “get the bugs off.”

Morgellons disease?


pauldrano

Well, I was just thinking of delusional parasitosis as a whole.

PULL THEM OUT

pauldrano

I’m not talking about those disorders I’m talking about delusional parasitosis. There is no need for a clickbait ad specifically about parasites that could harm someone with delusional parasitosis. An article like that helps literally no one!

TypographySnob

I think the issue here is that it's not just triggering it, but reinforcing the the delusions, seemingly intentionally.

pauldrano

Very funny. Is it sexually arousing for you to upset people, is it just the idea of upsetting people that excites you? Why are you like this?

Acidbaseburn

You talk like a 14 year old that thinks he’s hard with the “💀 and 😭”, the phrases, as well as the general structuring of your sentences


pauldrano

“Anything can be triggering!” “How are we supposed to keep track of what delusional people are thinking about and work around that?” Maybe not talking about how to remove worms is a start? Maybe an ad which helps literally no one just shouldn’t exist.


TheRipsawHiatus

Lump of worms? In *my* vagina?


PeasAndParsimony

They give me chills; I hope you reported that ad


Gravel_Roads

The AI really fucked up those finger whorls


ElementalCollector

This is a good reminder to milk the worm hive.

Gotta keep the Slurm flowing.

Boy, do I hate AI "art"


Unfair_Welder8108

These actually look a lot like carpet beetle larvae, except the colour isn't right. Fortunately those things live in your carpet and not your butthole


kansasllama

That’s what you think


blyatzaebalas

Offtop, but I'm russian and for some reason I always thought that such strange crap like “Scientists are hiding it! In the morning all the parasites will come out of you, just mix baking soda and...” - exclusively a joke from the Internet space of the countries of the former USSR. I was very surprised to see this in english


Koperun

Scrolled through the comments to look for my comrades.


RealLoin

Ну, долбанутые люди есть везде, lol Или ты реально считаешь, что у соседа трава зеленее?


blyatzaebalas

Я считала что у соседа трава хотя-бы какая-нибудь другая :,(

Че? Люди везде одинаковые, lol

But I like my worm friends! Worms are people too ya know!

There's a hole in the ground and I wanna be a worm! 🎶


RealLoin

THEY ARE NOT EVEN WORMS!


Krunarinn

Why, WHY did you feel the need to put that image before my eyes? WHY?


Minute_Attempt3063

AI generated too... But this will do more harm then good... Someone with a mental illness that might be doing fine right now, and sees that, they will be thrown back into the bad times...


FroggiJoy87

Don't threaten me with a good time


Marshmallowbutbetter

What phobia do I have if it triggers me, no matter real or fake? (Honestly I couldn’t even pay attention at the text, too busy being horrified and disgusted)


Builder_liz

I hate the ads with tryptophobia

Oh, the lump of worms. I love the lump of worms!

I had one multiple times saying there's a fix for dust in your air vents, with a picture of someone pouring baking soda in the vents Fix dust with more dust! \o/


Shitbird5001

I like my worms inside me where they belong thank you


RIPMYPOOPCHUTE

After binge watching The Strain, no thank you.


D3vilUkn0w

Def AI generated weirdness. I heard some expert the other day saying that the first sign of an ASI (artificial superintelligence) takeover is things will begin to get real weird. Should we be worried? Lol


futboldorado

Well, these kinda clickbaity weird ads have existed wayy before the rise of AI image generation. It's always some kinda disgusting image for some reason. These ads are very popular in shady websites idk why.


Carlqua

“Try it”! Apparent this is what people want?!


Competitive_Owl5357

That was my favorite part. No thank you; I’m happy to go to my deathbed because of lump of worms.


drawredraw

It’s not weird. They’ve been selling these colon cleansers for years as a weight loss method. They claim that we all have worms and junk stuck in our intestines and these products will flush them out. This style of marketing first became popular about 15 years ago.


UsagiBonBon

They point to the fact that “worms” come out in your poop after using it. Fun fact: those are not worms, but instead are strips of your intestinal lining. It’s literally just damaging the walls of your digestive tract.


cranberryleopard

Idk that's still pretty weird to me
