But I will admit that I had to turn away from a Saw movie more than once because of the loving detail (scene when the doctor drilled into Jigsaw's head, and scene with a man's limbs being rotated until they broke were especially bad for me). One thing that always squicks me out is fingernail torture - having them ripped off, or when a victim claws at the floor/wall in a horror film. sfgsjgdsslglgs!!Dae Dreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00145573291913964537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432589953859933288.post-53992437299333368042011-06-29T08:08:22.910-04:002011-06-29T08:08:22.910-04:00Hmmm....you are very...complex. LOL. I'm not...Hmmm....you are very...complex. LOL. I'm not exactly squeamish, I don't think. I can read some pretty nasty stuff. One book, I can't remember the title, had an awful torture scene that made me shake, and when I put the book down, I realized I had tears running down my face.<br /><br />As far as movies and stuff go, it's not the death that bothers me, but I turn my head whenever I'm expecting anything violent at all. The worst of it, though, are the shouts and screams that come from the people being tortured and/or killed! Sometimes I have to cover my ears too!<br /><br />April (Alpha Echo on AW)April Plummerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12000526454256802504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432589953859933288.post-37020372910338406862011-06-28T19:45:07.744-04:002011-06-28T19:45:07.744-04:00I'm pretty sure I could handle an injury in re...I'm pretty sure I could handle an injury in real life. Maybe not diseased people, but gushing blood? I could probably handle that. I think I just consciously or subconsciously think, this is me, when people talk about simple blood stuff. If they keep going on about it, the simple fact 'I have blood' really gets to me. It sucks! But I haven't passed out yet. It's weird that just the idea can get me so sick!Dae Dreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00145573291913964537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432589953859933288.post-45786123329381913982011-06-28T15:56:48.255-04:002011-06-28T15:56:48.255-04:00It's funny the different things that people ar...It's funny the different things that people are squeamish about! My boyfriend is really into science, he's a very logical rational person and has no problem watching horrible body-related things on tv (while I cower behind a cushion), but when he sees any kind of injury in real life, he gets queasy and light headed and sometimes even faints. It's strange, because it's a completely physical thing for him - in his head he has no problem with it.<br /><br />I like your diagram!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
