- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

My wife does this, sleeps to forensic files every single night. But I describe one gore murder from a horror film and she starts gagging. I just don't understand.
Women are crazy.
They love watching true crime about horrible serial killers, but if you show them your collection of severed trophy ears, they run for the hills.
Jokes on them though, I can run faster.
I know you’re mostly joking but from what I understand it’s this:
True crime: tries to answer the “why” and there’s the invisible carrot of “justice” that you hope to get in the end. Unsolved mysteries leave you with a crack itch of thinking you can “figure it out,” like a puzzle.
Gore horror: no “why,” no “justice,” no puzzle, just a brutal description of human suffering. There’s no closure.
That’s just my hypothesis though ¯\(ツ)/¯
It tracks!
This is the best explanation of this type of content I have seen!! Totally makes sense!
That's easy:
True crime: she is educating herself to murder you.
Gagging over the gore: the main reason your still breathing.
Okay, I'm fucking dead at this LMAOOO
They want them dead, not dying.
Maybe It's her and all women's Dark Inner psyche trying to get out and expose the inner psychopath but talking about it openly is triggering her natural instinct to repress it.
Try being a complete and total psycho, her inner demons should respond well to that, if she doesn't like it that's just her trying to repress it you have to really make her believe you are a psychopath woman love that.
