I have learned two things this week about flickr →[More:]1. People put nasty photos of themselves there. (I had no idea till now. I always assumed that those images were frowned upon/deleted.)

2. More felicitously, the thread linked above, in which someone posed their Mr. T doll with the famous, near-famous, and obscure.

It's on the internet and you thought people wouldn't post nasty pictures of themselves?

Well I had not thought about it other than to notice, when I first signed up, the stuff about "objectionable material."

It's neither here nor there, really. Just didn't know about it 'sall.

If the link is to said nasty photos, you might want to put a NSFW/"mildly NSFW"/"2% NSFW" tag there on the link.

I haven't clicked to check if you need it, as I'm at work myself (if that's the case, I'm lucky I opened the thread first)

The link is perfectly safe. Unless you get hot and bothered by minor celebs holding a Mr. T doll.

(OK actually one of the pics is someone sticking him in their pants.)

One thing to always keep in mind that if there is a way for a man to show anonymous strangers his cock, he will do it. It's built into our genetics.

What's even creepier on Flickr are the people that comment on all those nasty photos. No matter how nasty or old or very very unattractive the person, there will always be three people posting comments like, "SO HOT OMG!" and one person adding a sniffing note to a crotch.

I like the "Take me back to the kittens" button. And then it does! Click on it, and, sweet kitten relief in all their fluffball goodness.
