Things That Become Creepy When You Think About Them

Adventure Time. Just about everything in that show is creepy and disturbing...

Go watch some Misadventures of Flapjack. Now, THAT shit is weird... Captain K'nuckles, particularly. He has two wooden legs, Pirate-Style robotic arms, can lop off bits of his body at will and THEY STILL FUNCTION, SOMETIMES WITH A LIFE OF THEIR OWN. There are so much things wrong with that show; Dr Barber inadvertently creates a monster out of hair clippings and old tuna, that fucking Mermaid that stares out of the ocean, aging, after Captain K'nuckles steals her pearl, THEY LIVE INSIDE A WHALE, the concept of an older pirate who dreams of taking a young sailor boy to Candine Island (a magical island made of candy and sweets) - Substitute that with a van that says FREE CANDY. The fucking Candy Barrel bartender WITH HIS CANDY WIFE WHO IS QUESTIONABLY ALIVE. There is also never a shortage of weird, mutated animal hybrids every now and then.

Also, the Dock Hag always creeped me out.

Hands. Seriously, look at your hands for a second. A square-ish bit of meat and bone, with 5 tentacle-like things sticking out from the top that you use to probe things with. How is this not weird to others?

Holy crap.

Our brains are "us", our bodies really are not. Sure we use our bodies all the time and associate identity with them, but really the TRUE self lies in the brain. We're parasites in our own bodies really, and our bodies are a mass of unfeeling cells we control through virtue of autonomy and will. We're meat puppets.

OK, this guy wins.

The story of Adam and Eve, if you think about it really hard we'd all be inbred, making the taboo of incest irrelevant

I remember being told (I'm not 100% on this so those more educated don't even bother) is that the bible never said that Adam and Eve were the ONLY humans created, just the FIRST.

OP: Fridge horror is pretty interesting, I was looking at [a href=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FridgeHorror]Tvtropes[/a] a while ago, and saw this so I just had to share some of the stuff I learned.

The things that jumped out at me the most were:

In L4D2, At Dead Center, Ellis was a local, so he probably had to kill most of his neighbors, family and friends. And he seems to be the HAPPIEST person of all of them...

In Dragon Ball Z, on several occasions a planet, or island was destroyed during one of the many sagas, and when they wish everyone on back to life, all of THOSE people or aliens were brought back to...

In Psychonauts, When you need to climb The thorny tower, what if all the inmates weren't there? what if that trophy didn't resemble a claw so much? What would have happened?

OT: There's a bathroom on the Normandy in Mass Effect 2 and 3. The creepier part? There's only one bathroom on the Normandy in Mass Effect 2 and 3. And it's in the Captain's Quarters.

That's not creepy, that's fucking hilarious. I can just see Shepard trying to sleep with a queue of people standing outside his bathroom, raging into his pillow at the idiocy of the alliance designers.

OT: We grind up plants, animals, and even purely synthetic compounds, roll them into blobs with our tongues and saliva, then push them down a muscley tube into a pit of digestive acids--all to keep ourselves alive.

The story of Adam and Eve, if you think about it really hard we'd all be inbred, making the taboo of incest irrelevant

I had this same fear/theory but then the former pastor at my church assuaged me of it. He said that Adam and Eve were the first to be created and that others were created they just aren't mentioned.

They just weren't special enough to get their own chapter, got it. I'd like to see it back then like first there was Adam, then there was Eve, err... right... and uhm... those other guys over there, don't pay any attention to them they don't do much.

I find the skinny middle sections of flying insects to be grossly creepy. Like, ew..
