# ...
There's a difference between the picture of a child, or a smoking building, and a picture of two bloody corpses. If you don't get that you might want to look up NSFW again.
Furthermore, it's hardly 'photoshopped'. It's just TOAP - which is ok if it makes an amusing joke but in this case is a complete waste of bandwith.

# Your definition of NSFW is based on your work environment
They show this sort of picture on the news.

EDIT: looks like the mods agree with you... this is what happened to the carry on films

# Erm, to be honest with you, they don't really show
pictures like this on the news as a matter of course at all, and if they do, regardless of time of day, they will say that the following piece contains pictures of a distressing nature, thus giving people the option to turn over. Linking the picture would be the same thing!

# True.
I don't think they should give warnings on the news. War is brutal and nasty. Why not show it?

# But yet again,
you are ignoring my point about the warning. That video, of which the screencap is not discernible as a dead body, has a guidance warning along the bottom.

# Erm
So now you're comparing a picture of a child, the carry on films, and two blown up dead bodies? You've got from incongruous to ridiculous.

# no youve missed the point
i was comparing b3ta to carry on films

Get off your high horse.

I long ago realised that different people see b3ta in different ways. You obviously see it in a different way to me.

# Well obviously everyone draws the line in a different place
My point was there's a clear and objective difference between making a distasteful inference and shoving visceral gore down people's throats. You might think that, say, a joke about the twin towers is in bad taste, but it's a different issue to posting images of people killed in the attack.

# of course its bad taste
my point is that you are not logged into disney.com

The day something is too risque for b3ta is a sad day
