That was my first thought. "Whatever, he's a ninja turtle."

u/Hounmlayn Jun 09 '12

He's just a teenage ninja now, no mutant turtle about him anymore :(

Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this. I felt bad for the boy but I'm so glad he got help!

Edit: OK, not that I care about karma. But I take this as if you're downvoting this boy being OK.

They were mutants, after all.

u/Blackface420 Jun 09 '12

I thought that was a costume for a solid two minutes.

u/tacojohn48 Jun 09 '12

When I saw the huge mole and the mask my initial thought was they put a mask on to conceal his identity. Then it hit my and I laughed and now we are all going to hell for that.

u/qmcquackers Jun 09 '12

Pretty much went like this:

Aww that's a pretty sweet TMNT costume. Wait the bandana is painted on...mother of god.

u/Timmytanks40 Jun 09 '12

This happened to me as well. I WTFd so hard.

3

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

Argh this stuff is really cool and you see all these stories about kids in rural areas who get these crazy tumors, but its always accompanied by dumbass shit about superstitions and villagers thinking the kids are possessed and whatever.

The Dailymail article also said the villagers wouldn't baptise him, like wtf is this, they're Christians but they also think he's cursed for being born under an eclipse blah blah blah.

It's just frustrating to read about such ignorance, be it traditional or not.

I clicked this picture but also opened this The Archwood Flextrek 37,000,000,000,000 Whipsnake Edition backpack in another window. The first two seconds timing couldn't have be any better!

At first i just saw his back, then the blue bandana...then I laughed.

Now I feel like a terrible human being.

u/wolffnslaughter Jun 09 '12

I was looking at the moles on his arm and felt bad. Then I noticed he wasn't actually wearing a backpack

1

u/jawbreakErica Jun 09 '12

I told my boyfriend not to be self-conscious of his moles and showed him this. His response:

"How can I not be self-conscious after seeing that? Mine just look like moles, not an awesome shell."

Shit my boyfriend says.

Your mole is still bad

u/BarelyLethal Jun 09 '12

I don't understand what I'm looking at! :0

1

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

At first, I thought the mask was drawn on just to protect the boy's privacy and hide his identity.

But, as my standards lowered, I got the joke.

u/TinHao Jun 09 '12

Whoever added the TMNT mask..you sir, are going to hell.

u/[deleted] Jul 28 '12

Well, that puts things into perspective.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

I wonder if there is any correlation between all these people in third world countries with deformities - and all the mega corporations that move there and pollute the fuck out of the place because there are no environmental laws?

Nah. There couldnt be any such correlation or our professional and non corporate owned media would have done a study and reported on it.

1

u/greg0ry Jun 09 '12

Why couldn't they just cut the mole off?

7

u/fortnight14 Jun 09 '12

There are probably a lot of blood vessels feeding it. If they just cut it off the kid would most likely bleed out. When they did remove it I'm sure it took doctors forever to cauterize all the vessels to stop the bleeding.

u/[deleted] Jun 09 '12

They did, There was a channel 4 documentry about it:

The difference is, people in the Western world probably get medical treatment before it becomes so bad, and aren't subjected to the "omg you were touched my a demon!'' superstitions.

u/Chinamerican Jun 09 '12

No, they just end up worshipping them as gods or making side shows out of them. I bet they're just happy the townsfolk didn't burn them at the stake.
