whats the weirdest content/trigger warning you've seen

[smallmilk]

Tw: trees

Idk how a person would function if they really got triggered by trees

 

[Sherlac Everomore]

I don't then to read those because I actually have a brain

 

[Elwood P. Dowd]

Just saw this on KiA. What the fuck is going on at colleges today...

Tw: trees

Was it actual trees or code word for marijuana. That reddit meme leaked to tumblr at some point.

 

[Lurkette]

someone asked a food tumblr to trigger tag their photos of pomegranates because the fruit looked like a gory heart or organ
it got passed around and ridiculed for awhile, it was pretty great

i've also seen tags for positive/loving mentions of parents, esp dads

 

[VJ 120]

I've seen tw: food, tw: hands, tw: menstruation, and tw: parents before.

That's because all too many men are rapists and abusive bastards by default and their dad is a monster for not supporting their Tumblr delusions.

TW: Soda and TW: Paper.

It's just pulp and carbonated liquid, dude (unless you have a burping problem or get paper cuts often).

Content Warnings: America's new favorite pasttime!

 

[CaptainMappy]

I saw a trigger warning for pomegranate seeds once. POMEGRANATE SEEDS.

 

[FataBataRang]

I sympathize. Once, I was whispering to a cis male friend about how much I love videogames that involve throwing trans people into volcanoes. He pretended not to hear me, and showed me a piece of paper with his drawings of cute dogs and cats on it. That was nice, but suddenly, we saw a stranger who had massive self harm scars walking across a long rope tied between two trees overhead. A gust of wind blew my friend's paper away, which distracted the stranger and made him fall into the ocean to get raped by Spongebob. He became a spooky ghost shortly afterwards.

 

[I'm Just A Human Bean]

-water
-rabbits
-eye contact

Noticed that the body horror tag is used liberally. For example, drawings of cyclops in a very cutesy art style, because they have one eye. I've also seen the body horror tag used on drawings of an OC with claws for fingers, done in a very simple cartoon style. I shit you not. Wish I could find the blog now.

EDIT: Her blog's name is tearzah and this is her body horror tag

With a few exceptions, Trigger Warnings are dumb as shit. If you are such a feeble minded, self centered sad sack who is so mentally unprepared for the big wide world outside your moms basement door that every piece of content you view has to be extensively censored then you deserve everything you get. If you don't like something, don't do it. If you are that worried by online content, don't go online. Sooner or later this trigger obsessed generation is going to be alone in the world and if they can't look at money or pictures of food without hyperventilating and having a panic attack then the gene pool is about to get a thorough and much needed scrub.

To be fair, I imagine that most of these people are only this exceptional online because it's the only place where their particular brand of bullshit is tolerated, they go to the store, buy groceries, work regular jobs then they come home and start reeeeeeeeeeing online because in the real world they know they can't.

I know I probably get too angry about this but shit like having trigger warnings everywhere just further marginalizes the few people with real mental health issues who really DO need to be careful about what they view online.

I've seen the grandma post so many times I actually started tagging stuff "tw:grandma" as a joke.

Favorite trigger warnings I've seen on tumblr:

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared (I know it was a joke at one point to trigger tag dhmis stuff but some people did it earnestly)
All caps
Repetition
Puppies
Memes
