Lasting Impressions...

I Googled, 'Gross Dinosaur Attacks cards' and
look what popped up right away!

The card series 'Dinosaur Attacks' came out when I was five, and it was horrifying to say the least. Truly the stuff of nightmares. Gory images of Dinosaurs killing, maiming and eating people. I remember being so scared by these cards that I hid them in our basement, never to see the light of day again! (I still wonder why I didn't just throw them away...weird)

No matter how hard I try I will never be able to forget this one card in particular. Nuptial Nightmare.
An unsuspecting Bride and Groom being impaled on the horns of a Triceratops.

The other night, some friends and I were sitting around the table having some wine; and somehow we got on the topic of creating an unforgettable image. Immediately the traumatizing image from my childhood flashed through my mind like a lightening bolt.

Why that image?

Is nothing more unforgettable than what disgusts and scares us?
