I Vow Not to Talk About Clusters of Holes this Weekend: Well, Except for this Blog Post
I’m ashamed to admit I’ve been a tad obsessed with looking at disturbing pictures of things containing a cluster of holes. My Internet search cache is littered with such searches. From one of those searches, I learned about Trypophobia, “an intense, irrational fear of (organic) holes,” according to the Urban Dictionary.
