Wow...
that fourth person in the eighth photo looks very peaceful and happy. Most of the other ones look quite creepy, especially in black and white. If I'd been told they were pictures of people sleeping, I might not have said this. This is a total worthwhile exercise and not at all voyeuristic.
i agree. i really enjoyed these, baby.Originally Posted by Subterranean

I do not like this. At all. How incredibly depressing.
Hmm...
... yes. A sickness common among the bourgeois.
(Christ but I'm such a c-u-n-t.)
I saw these a few days ago, Baby. They actually made me feel a lot better about seeing dead people. I developed a phobia after my mother's death; she looked dreadful. It was so bad that I could not even bring myself to attend my brothers funeral.

For some reason I feel strangely empty when seeing a dead person. Even looking through those photos it didn't seem to register to me as unsettling at all for some reason.
I am, though, really bothered by people suffering in life, or if they died a painful/violent death or at a young age where they didn't have the chance to do all they wanted to do in life. Thinking about that sort of thing bothers me deeply. But seeing a corpse, I think: "That person is no longer there anymore. It's just an inert mass of cells now." It's haunting in the same way an abandoned building is... a little screwed up I know.
"How could we forget those ancient myths that stand at the beginning of all races, the myths about dragons that at the last moment are transformed into princesses? Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."
-- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
I used to feel like that. But it's different when it's your mother and she is all bloated and waxy and grey.

Yeah. I can see how that can be disturbing.

this is cool too
No, I wasn't aware that we all die at some point....thankz so much for clearing that up, baby!!!!!111
well, i can see her point of view as well. a few of the captions were sort of depressing. such as the woman who was proud of her own independence and ability to take care of herself up until her death. there's something very frantic and "last moment" about a lot of these pictures.

I just find things of this nature highly depressing. It's not so bad as http://www.mydeathspace.com/
That site is too much for me. Very eery.
That site is fantastic! I may have a phobia of Looking at dead people but reading about the crazy ways people die is always amusing not to mention educational.
One girl overdosed on Bengay of all things!

Bengay? lol.
It's distrubing but oddly fascinating...seeing the comments on their myspace before they died...seeing the last day they logged on not knowing the next day they'd be dead....seeing their pictures and how carefree they seemed with no idea that they'd be dead in a few months...It's eery. And I hope to god no one disrespects me by posting RIP messages on my damn myspace once i die.
oh yeah, i don't have one.
