Schadenfreude. I think you've pretty much covered it in the last paragraph: when we're down, we search for culture which empathises; when we're up, we search for culture which makes us see the value and worth of our current 'positive' situation. Not everyone though: some people detest dark comedy, cynical people and skeptical views. [view article]

Hey there :) Just wondered, did you take the pictures yourself? Its just im currently completing my Final Major Project for my publishing course and im making a music magazine. Having a massive problem with copywrite :/ If you did take the pictures would i be able to use the ones of pulled apart by horses? because they are the best ive found :P they really capture how mental they are. You would be a MASSIVE help. Id put your name on the pictures and if you want i can sent you the mag when its done so you can put it in a portfolio or summat? Would be a MASSIVE help :) If your interested could you email me on only-inhuman@hotmail.com Cheers :) [view article]
