Reading the thread title, I had sympathy for you. After seeing that picture, I don't. I just feel bad for, well, the entire readership of this thread.

It should really be labeled NSFW. Thank goodness my boss didn't happen by when I clicked on this thread.

I am my boss, and I had to scold myself for looking at that one.

The picture is disturbing, but , I'll bet there is an interesting story behind the signing of the picture. The story is the only thing that can save this thread now. You can't un-see what's been seen.
