And you could go on 4chan, knowing that what has been seen actually can be unseen, leaving you with only a note saying "Don't look at SqueeHorse" or something.

Given that I was just prompted to google for SqueeHorse I have to wonder how well that would work. (I still don't understand why I wouldn't want to look at SqueeHorse. Is it even a thing?)

SqueeHorse is a term for bishōnen yaoi mpreg.

I don't know what text that image is supposed to represent, and tineye doesn't turn anything up. I'd originally read it as meaning something like "bwahaha, I told you a horrible thing", but your reaction to the grandparent seems to suggest it means something more like "lol, not really".

Oh. Sorry. (Tineye didn't turn up anything? That's surprising.)

Reference. Part of the point of being that oblique was not to give away the joke, but eh.

Feel free to downvote.

...Why would I?

Frankly I'm amazed my own contributions to this conversation haven't been downvoted into the lithosphere for being deliberately misleading. It doesn't even seem that funny, in retrospect.

To make the explanation easier to not see, thus restoring some measure of obliquity.

If you don't want to karma-punish, you could always upvote the invitation for balance.

If you insist!

(I felt surprisingly guilty about it, so I upvoted you twice.)

SqueeHorse is a term for bishōnen yaoi mpreg.

A term for that huh? Well, now it all makes sense! I think the 'yaoi' bit is something to with fantasy gay porn for girls. No idea about the other two and I suspect I don't need to know. Fortunately all google gave me for SqueeHorse was a rather cute seahorse. :)

A bishonen is an androgynous-looking pretty male in Japanese anime. mpreg is short for male pregnancy.

You confirmed my suspicion. I didn't need to know.
