Y'all know the work The Scream by Edvard Munch. On the Internet circulate all sorts of versions of the picture. Post your favorite version here ⬇.

In his diary in an entry headed "Nice 22 January 1892", Munch wrote:
One evening I was walking along a path, the city was on one side and the fjord below. I felt tired and ill. I stopped and looked out over the fjord – the sun was setting, and the clouds turning blood red. I sensed a scream passing through nature; it seemed to me that I heard the scream. I painted this picture, painted the clouds as actual blood. The color shrieked. This became The Scream.

He later described his inspiration for the image:
I was walking along the road with two friends – the sun was setting – suddenly the sky turned blood red – I paused, feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence – there was blood and tongues of fire above the blue-black fjord and the city – my friends walked on, and I stood there trembling with anxiety – and I sensed an infinite scream passing through nature.

This - undoubtedly brutal - animation visualizes what can happen to you if you don't have any ibuprofen at hand.

@CitizenD I saw some pretty weird stuff when I was in Tokyo.

Just so anyone looking at this thinks it's a joke, it's not.

This is quite serious.

@CitizenD I have worked in Japan and think it is an urban myth (but prove me wrong!) although there are machines selling new undies.
I asked one of my colleagues about it, he seemed to think I was weird for even asking!

@Buttless I will do some occasional research... However, I remember several TV reports in which young women were shown who sent their worn knickers by mail. Something like that sticks in the memory.

@CitizenD This started out as a photo of one of a pair of Japanese masks that one of my brothers has, shot against a white wall. I did some tinkering with it to get the white background. The image was used to make a transfer print using an inkjet printer and clear silicone.

@(⌐■_■) Hmmm. I didn't see that at all. I found it creepy when Max posted it on my wall, especially knowing his style. I think it was pretty brave showing us something he'd done.

I can see the Japanese influence in it from the Kabuki masks.
