Poll Tuesday Poll: Which is More Disturbing?

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on Tue, Jun 17 at 10:31 AM

First things first: The purpose of this blog is NOT to give you nightmares. However, when we are presented with what could be considered two very disturbing videos, what are we to do? The way we see it, our job is to show you the train wrecks—your job is to decide which wreck is worse. For example, check out the following two videos:

Video 1: A kitten with six legs.

Video 2: A one-eyed dope guzzling drag queen.

And now… VOTE!

WHICH IS MORE DISTURBING?

Poll closes Wednesday at 2 pm! Sweet dreams!

Comments

I would vote, but embedded YouTube videos (anywhere, not just at Blogtown) have been stopping for me after 2 seconds in Firefox for the last 2 days.

I'd say it's my configuration, but it's happening at home AND at work where I can't change anything. Anybody else experiencing this?

I thought the kitten was bad, but I couldn't even get through a minute of the drag queen singing. And smoking.

Demonjuice, I have the same thing. There was some maintenance at YT yesterday, so hoping it gets addressed.

Also, I restarted my browser (possibly dumping some kind of cache?) and some have been working now.

Still only 1/2 way through the kitty video and can't get the drag queen to even start. Can't vote on such bad Intel unfortunately.

Drag Queens are scarier than almost anything. Always.

the drag queen reminds me of the one in the following link, only not nearly as disturbing:

Neil Diamond

After canceling his September performance in Portland, Neil Diamond is back and ready to blow us out of our seats! Fine, maybe he won’t “blow us,” but I bet he’ll come to the stage locked and loaded with hits such as “Cherry, Cherry,” “Sweet Caroline,” and “I’m a Believer.” And does anybody remember “Heartlight”? I do! WSH
