Right there with you. I moderated on Gaia Online back in the day, and every now and then someone would get their jollies off by posting gore and CSAM. And of course, the mod team would have to clean it up because that’s what they do.
I actually had a better time modding on Reddit. At least no one posted CSAM once a month.
Though Reddit is the place I ended up modding a video that fucked me up for a little while…
Was it Mr Hands?
Nah, that type of stuff never phased me.
Nah, it was a Rick Roll.
Im afraid to ask but also don’t wanna look it up. What’s happened to the mister‘s hands ?
For a direct answer, he had penetrative intercourse with a horse (receiving). Surprisingly, he survived the attempt, but perished from complications.
He didn't survive long. The video has a sound like a big piece of velcro getting opened.. it wasn't velcro.
Ty. Why mr. Hands though?
That was his name. Plus, unexpectedly being exposed to that kind of content does leave an impact, more often than not.
Nothing, his hands were fine, he was just horsin’ around.
