Feb. 6th, 2026 06:16 pmI feel like "fucked up" is measured logarithmically. You've got Winnie the Pooh, and you've got fucked-up work A, and they form what feels like a complete scale from 1 to 10. Then you've got fucked-up work B, and it makes A feel like a 1 in comparison, so the new scale goes from 10 to 100. Then fucked-up work C is 1000.
I'm not sure how many levels it goes through, and I'm not sure where the top is as far as fiction. Maybe one of the Guinea Pig movies? I think any fiction is a 1 compared to some nonfiction, though.
What really interests me is trying to find the lowest 10. What's the least fucked-up thing that makes some people go "This is 10 out of 10 fucked up; it can't get any more fucked up than this?" E.g. some people have a very strong reaction to any mention of cannibalism.
