Topic: What is the most downvoted picture?

Posted under Art Talk

I assume it's the one that's basically a pornographic 9/11 joke. If not it's probably in the alley of offensive and disturbing.

While you are correct, there is significant overlap between the lowest scoring posts and the most downvoted. In this case, the top two lowest scoring posts are also the most downvoted.
This used a version of the database from a few months ago, and did not filter deleted posts, so posts like 6268 are included (4th in both rankings). 74 of the posts are shared between the two lists. The current scores are likely to be lower than the ones listed here.

These were the top three in the version of the database used:

ID	Score	ID	Downvotes
378180	-5748	378180	-6634
2311208	-2532	2311208	-2703
2566018	-2010	1534479	-2297

To think, the infamous cheese grater picture is only #4. :\

It being deleted (and overhyped) might have something to do with that

tl:dr; The most downvoted post, which outranks second place by 1200 more downvotes than second place has, is a 9/11 joke.

Though the comment section in that post is way more offensive than the post itself.

kinda this.

even of the iconic, like, modern furry cultural artifacts, the cheese grater isn't even the one whose source is the "worst", and it really dosn't hold much of a candle to the stuff that gets posted with a decent regularity within the past decade or so. honestly, it's not even very comparable to, like, a grand majority of the stuff involving fluffy ponies.

in fact, probably the main reason it's iconic is that it kind of strattles the line of being weird/gross/disturbing enough to be a funny shock image, but not so horribly disgusting that the friend you sent it to might stop talking to you forever.

I find stuff like the sandy cheeks vacuum image is that on here? I actually have never seen the full image to be amusing when used humorously. But it does feel like random content made for a specific adult audience that is considered weird by the mainstream population does get a lot of unwarranted attention sometimes. That being a good or bad thing, idk lol.

Like the day I found out we have a wound penetration tag and I just noped out and blisted that so fast.
