Don't ask me to explain. I can't. It just makes me feel gross looking at it, and not because it's stupid.

Augh I getcha. It makes me think of the hands that somebody would need to use a controller like that. Like, the number of joints in their fingers and the number of fingers and stuff and it's just gross hands with, like, 20 joint fingers everywhere.

**** that ****.

Reminds me of the pictures hated by people with trypophobia. I know because I get the reverse feeling from those pictures. I get a "good" itch. That picture makes me itch too.

It seems a lot of people have trypophobia but don't realize it, especially since trypophobia isn't a well known phobia like spiders or heights.

I'm not sure how severe it is with me. It'll usually require a "trigger" - one picture that really gets me to think about it. Then I'll get uneasy and it could last for a while. That picture was the first one that really made me think about it in a long time, but I looked up other pictures last night, and that was a really stupid idea. I went to bed uncomfortable and just woke up uncomfortable. Guess I found my first big phobia. ****ing sucks.

I think it's just the picture.

Cause I'm pretty sure I don't have trypophobia or just have a small case of it cause any " trypophobic " pictures just seem odd looking to me but doesn't make my skin crawl or my hair raise or anything like that.

But that controller just looks so damn unnatural and odd that it's hard to look at.

Yeah, I saw that one again yesterday. There's a "test" picture on a trypophobia website that's way worse. It made me feel ****ing terrible.

Yep, pomegranates are a common hatred of trypophobics.

Anyway, while it's unfortunate you had such an uncomfortable night, Yo, I think it's at least good you discovered you have the phobia.

If you guys really want to test yourselves, google image search "trypophobia" or "fear of holes" and look at one of the first results, the one with the cute girl in the schoolgirl outfit. That's the one that really triggered it for me last night.

the controller still bugs me however, because seriously that's cancer.

Another good test for a trypophobic is to watch a video of either a suriname toad giving birth or removing a botfly larva from human skin (both of which can be found on Youtube)

I would recommend Yo and Ryokles do not look those up unless you want to be creeped out. :P

That was the first ever picture to trigger this kind of reaction from me. It very likely started my phobia. I ****ing hate it. I wish the pic maker dies in a manner I can stomach looking at, like getting his head ripped off by a bear.

That was the only picture that kinda grossed me out, because I kept thinking about what my fingers would feel like with holes in them. I still am, but I'll probably forget about it by tomorrow.

The photoshopped pictures and botfly larvae did nothing for me. Neither did the PS3 controller.

But the holes made me really uncomfortable at first. I still feel kind of uneasy but I can look at them now without a reaction

I feel kind of sorry for you guys that are getting a reaction though, lol.

I think it's all the extra triggers. Kinda makes it look like a spidery kinda bug.

If you photoshopped off all the extra triggers but kept all the extra buttons and analog sticks I don't think it looks nearly as "gross."

EDIT: Actually I think you'd need to take off the protruding analogs too. The ones on the handles are okay.

The whole thing just looks cancerous.
