Hamtackle has done it once again.  He has graced the pages of Popular Irony with some very disturbing and brutal photos.  You know that guy who ate that homeless man's face?  Do you want to see the picture of his bloody "No-Face"?  Well then scroll down and look at yesterdays post.  No?!  You don't want to see something so fucking terrible?  Then this post is for you.

Whenever Hamtackle posts something truly disturbing, I like to follow it up with a Palate cleanser.  This time the subject is Romance.

When you see the picture of the romantic couple below, try not to think about self disembowelment.  Go on... Don't think about ripping out your own intestines and hurling them at people.  That's right, don't think about it.  Think about the silky touch of your desired sexual partner.  Don't think about their insides being on the outside.  See... isn't that better?

Now the couple below is sharing a romantic kiss.  Please note that it is only a kiss and not cannibalism.  The woman is not taking large toothy bites out of the man's face.  Not even a nibble.  Just tender smooches.  I promise you that she is not locked onto his lower lip like a rabid bulldog.  She is not preparing to tear away with all her strength ripping the man's lip off like a flabby hunk of greasy meats.  Just love..... Love and tenderness.

Awwww... isn't that sweet?  A couple in a loving, mid-coital embrace.  And they are both alive and intact.  One of the couple isn't a corpse in mid-dissection-rape.  The couple is probably happy and healthy and one of them is not being filmed for torture porn.  Just love.  Love and steamy passion.  Not horror and blood-lust.  See, don't you feel better.  Don't you feel better to know that one of them is not a psychotic gay porn star with a cat crushing fetish?

Well, I don't know about you, but I feel cleansed.  I think I got all of those gore encrusted cobwebs out of my head.  Now all I can think about is stuffing my short and salty inside of some willing and ready lady parts.  Just remember.... No matter how bad the world seems, at least you have not been cannibalized while you were still alive.  Until next time - Smooches!

Every once in a while, Hamtackle posts something utterly gruesome.  Some hideous bodily injury or humans performing despicable acts to other humans.  While the accompanying text is always hilarious, it can be off-putting to some of our softer, gentler readers.  Now I wouldn't say that Hamtackle is a Gore Perv.  It's not like he can't orgasm without crushing a kitten or anything.  He just has a general, student like interest in the worst of mankind.

Personally, I am not a a fan of the gore, while I would never ask Hamtackle to censor himself, I feel it is my duty to offer a Palate Cleanser.  The following pictures are the top 10 Google image searches for the word "Adorable".  They should all be pleasant and soothing.  So stop thinking about that picture of the finger stripped of its skin, stop thinking about the burn wounds and deep knife cuts.  It's time for your Palate Cleanser.

#10 on the adorable countdown is a newborn Panda Bear.  It kinda looks like a preemie Muppet.  I guess you could say it is adorable.  I wouldn't say that, but I guess you could say that.

#9 is a Corgi puppy.  No arguments there.  Corgis are definitely adorable.  Especially Corgi puppies.

#8 is another Panda Bear.  At least this one actually fits the description of Adorable.  Poor little thing doesn't know it's extinct yet.  Awwwwwww.  Wittle Schnookums.

#7 ...... Well look at that..... An adorable kitten made even more adorable with the addition of fairy wings.  There could be swarms of these things devouring humans by the thousands and people would still want to own one.  That is the power of Adorable!

 #6  HA HA!!  A bubbly, sudsy Hedgehog!  What could be more adorable?  The best part is that he must be enjoying his bath.  If he wasn't, those spikes would be out, but he is just kicking back enjoying his sink bathtub.  Such a happy Hedgehog!

 #5  is a run of the mill, Internet poster.  It's not even an adorably misspelled  LOLCAT poster.  I will admit that it is cute, but not worthy of the #5 spot on our countdown.

#4 is a couple of ferrets laying together in a pattern of a heart.  It is accompanied by some generic text.  Blah Blah Blah, Ferrets smell bad.  C'mon Google!  What the fuck!?

 #3  Now we are back on track!  An adorable kitten.  Not the most adorable kitten I've seen, but anything is better than a couple of sneaking, stealing, conniving, bastard ferrets.

#2 I'm not really sure why this is the #2 Google result for the word "Adorable".  It is anything but Adorable.  A young girl, who is more than likely bullied because of her weight, is caught trying to use her girth to her advantage by entertaining her "friends".  She has a cookie on each shoulder and is desperately sloshing her head from side to side, in a self effacing attempt at cookie consumption.  All the neighborhood kids laugh at Deborah (pronounced "Dee BORE uh"), but if they are laughing they aren't taunting. This is far more depressing than adorable.  I feel terrible for this poor, ridiculed, obese girl.

#1 PUPPIES!!!  OOOOOHHHH  Look at them prance!!  She is leaving the ground entirely in her happy dance!  Good Job Google!  That is some motherfucking Adorable!
