Noses are so ugly and they're right in the middle of the face. Very hard to avoid looking at those ugly things.

I remember I offended someone once with the offhanded remark that human earlobes are gross lol

Jealous of people that have that rare trait where the lobe is connected. Their earrings look so nice.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 43 minutes ago

Unexpected compliment for my connected lobes, thanks. I guess I should start wearing earrings.

Biology in general is disgusting. Eating is gross, its just a weird process if you think about it, and especially weird that so much of our lives are dedicated to it. Waste removal is extra gross. Reproduction is.. not even gunna go there but it’s gross, and childbirth is so much worse. Mouths are gross, our protruding luxury bones are gross, tongues are just tiny tentacles, and thats gross. Also theres just -so much hair- which is, you guessed it, gross.

Guts are gross. I know we aren't meant to survive disemboweling, but we do it routinely now to deliver babies, and do they put your intestines back where they belong? Hell no! They just shove that shit back in there and let it sort itself out.

And then we move away from humans and other animals lick themselves to get clean which is gross. They eat poop, sometimes directly from a rectum (theirs or not), which is gross.

Diseases are gross, auto-immune issues are gross..

Man.

I find it best to just not really spend a lot of time thinking about the practicalities of biology. I mean, I have done the thinking, and imho, its not really worth it. It just makes everything seem gross, genuinely. Like really, stop to think about just hair growth, a relatively benign fact of biology. Some small thing starts growing under your skin at a bud point, then erupts through your protective skin layer, and just keeps growing.. until its multiple feet long, in some cases (thank fuck leg, armpit, and genital hair stops growing at inches instead of feet). Just gross.

auto-immune issues are gross…

Autoimmune issues at least know who the enemy is.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 37 minutes ago

This is how acid makes me feel. Everything about people becomes so...gross. Dirty, oily, grimy. Yuck.

[–] JennaR8r@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

That's why humans also have a strong biological drive to find things inexplicably attractive about each other. That raw rugged attraction to someone who turns you on. Strong enough to blind them to all the gross things. This is nature's aphrodisiac.

OTOH I generally agree with you, I cannot be blind to how gross we are. Every time I take a warm steaming shit, there's no way I can feel attractive to anyone. I even lose attraction for anyone as soon as I smell any normal human foul odor emanating from any of their numerous orifices, or see something gross about them. This is nature's birth control.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 26 minutes ago

How do you explain people who like poop, etc? Maybe that's humanity evolving beyond past limitations?

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 hours ago

We are also smelly cause we sweat but don’t a have great sense of smell so our dogs and cats probably know a lot about us through that without us knowing

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.cafe 14 points 4 hours ago

We're just a coiled tube, surrounded by a protective sustainment system, that requires constant maintenance.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 2 points 1 hour ago

Hahaha why does this comment sound so cathartic

[–] youcantreadthis@quokk.au 8 points 3 hours ago

Down with body positivity, up with egalitarian body negativity!

You are 35-140kg of under refrigerated self heating meat. You have been out and thawed but not properly dehydrated for decades. You are disgusting.

[–] Hazel@piefed.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 hours ago (3 children)

Skin is the sexiest organ 😏

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 24 minutes ago

I'm an anus man.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 41 minutes ago (1 children)

Sebaceous glands? Yuck! No, thank you!

[–] DokPsy@lemmy.world 2 points 39 minutes ago

Well you don't eat the glands

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 22 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

Humans would be grosser without skeletons.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 5 points 59 minutes ago

Skeletons are the least gross part tbh. I used to have a skeleton as my pfp, and also because it's the closest I imagine getting to genderneutral euphoria lmao

Let me out of this meat cage 🍖

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 2 points 44 minutes ago

Skeletons would be less gross without the fleshy parts around them.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.cafe 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)
[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 hours ago

They do have one. It's just, sometimes liquid.

[–] Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org 61 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (3 children)

She does have a point. We should replace our weak and ugly flesh with strong steel and blessed machine.

[–] brap@lemmy.world 26 points 8 hours ago

The omnissiah approves.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago

A steel skeliton. Like Wolferine! We're gonna be X-Men!!! But....just the one. Just Wolferine. Unless any extremely buff guys want to dress like a big blue furry guy.

........yeah, I just heard it as I said it. Someone out there is ABSOLUTELY already doing that, unrelated to this plan.

[–] restingOface@quokk.au 9 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Cover your knees up if you're gonna be walking around

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 1 points 55 minutes ago

Lemme just pop a quick H on this box. That way we all know it's filled with hornets.

[–] Pirtatogna@lemmy.world 10 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Mmmm, skin.... holes.... <3

[–] BagOfHeavyStones@piefed.social 12 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

I feel a touch of Violet coming on...

[–] absentbird@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

o7 violet08, gone too soon

[–] redlemace@lemmy.world 15 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

You only need to look up how much hair and skin we loose every day to know she's right

[–] BagOfHeavyStones@piefed.social 5 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

My steering wheel has a 2mm deep layer of dead skin on the top half for some reason.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 8 points 4 hours ago

The reason is because you aren't cleaning it.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

do you put lotion on in the car?

either way that's nasty. go get a new steering wheel if it won't come off

[–] autriyo@feddit.org 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

The reason is probably you. Or whoever else drives the car :D

Engineers should develop a self cleaning steering wheel.

[–] human@slrpnk.net 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

And a steering wheel that doesn't fly out the window while I'm driving

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 21 minutes ago

Tesla owner?

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago

I do prefer you to have holes.
