Tangy the Cat's Face Triggers my Trypophobia

I'm dying to know, but when then I think of the saying "Curiosity killed the cat". lol

You might as well.
If you are pretty tolerant of body horror, you won't mind much.
Most of the images are fabricated anyway.

OT:
Eh, I don't have Trypophobia at all, so there is not much that I can comment on this.
 
I don't like Tangy anyways so ehh. If it wasn't so blown up on the screen then no one would notice it much. I hate the fact that she has such prominent indents though, they should have probably made the tan spots closer to the yellow color of her skin.
For people who do want to look it up, why not right? But just look closely at your face and see your pores, basically that's the concept behind the fear. Holes, holes, and holes everywhere!
 
I have really mild trypophobia and Tangy (and Wart Jr, ew...) definitely do trigger it. I don't have full blown reactions to them but they make me feel gross and weird, they squick me out so I'd rather never have them in my towns... Still they're not as bad as Coco, who triggers my eye horror-related phobia ;; Her eyelessness scares me so much.
 
when i first saw tangy up close i got all itchy .-.
wart jr makes me really uncomfortable too, even though they aren't really holes. i feel like digging those bumps out of his skin or something.
 
They look slightly awkward up close, but I don't really notice it in the game itself. Thankfully I don't have that phobia, or I would've been far more horrified when I was watching that program on the Surinam Toad as a child (as opposed to finding it kinda gross yet interesting).

Um... what's trypophobia? I'm kinda scared to search it because you guys said that it's disturbing...

Trypophobia is the alleged pathological fear of objects with irregular patterns of holes, such as beehives, ant hills and lotus seed heads.

If you look it up, you'll find a bunch of pictures with holes in them. A bit unpleasant to see in my opinion but you can always close the tab immediately afterwards

So, pictures with holes in them? Or pictures of objects with holes in them...?
 
Just looked it up what It means and looked at the pictures... I freaked out...then I noticed most of them where photoshoped... That made me feel better XD

The trypophobia is a phobia for the holes on the plants right? Do the holes really get on people's skin?
I've seen pictures and I though the things on people's skins where photoshopped.

I don't think a plant with holes in it is that creepy or gross >. <

I looked it up again. It's a fear for holes in things in general if I understand it right.

I don't mean to sound rude but can anyone explain where this fear is coming from?
 
I think there's something wrong with me... I looked tryphobia up on google and I find the pictures of objects with holes in them really satisfying for some reason :confused:
 
I like her, I too just see them as really small indents
in the game she's not that close up or big either

but her overall look is so cute and fresh
