I have seen a lot of sigs on various sites with depictions of violence, horror and gore.

Can anyone explain to me what the facination is with these topics, especially when there are so many beautiful and pleasant things in this world. Confused

The same reason people like First person shooters or games like GTA. Most of the sigs that I see that contains subject matter like that are usually related to a game or movie. Different strokes for different folks man. I happen to enjoy those games :)

what I want to know is why does hollywood view violence (ussually threw clenesing the earth of evil people) badly but screwing every girl you walk past just fine non-demoralizing, and of course no STDs exsist. Keep in mind, Im allowed to say that cuase I like 40 miles from L.A and work 15 miles away. Im an OC boy.
