March 14th, 2010 at 6:04 pm

naughty daddy/mommy/goaty

Found out yesterday that the horn is made of keratin, like your fingernails. Unfortunately the base is usually a skin cancer that this grows on top of.
March 19th, 2010 at 2:05 am
wow that’s pretty interesting
March 19th, 2010 at 9:55 pm
photoshop is a wonderful tool!
March 24th, 2010 at 9:09 am
The guy in the last pic looks like an Asian Tom Hanks.
March 24th, 2010 at 4:12 pm
looks like a cutaneous horn
A Noun is correct; just a build-up of keratin, but the skin cancer is usually benign. Just kinda freaky.
March 25th, 2010 at 12:06 am
yea.. id say photoshop too. I dont know, but it seems as if the for the horn and the the pictue of the lady dont have the same pixelation or something.
March 26th, 2010 at 6:23 am
seems like a tumor that was never taken care of… the skin darkened with the years!!! and grew into the shape of a horn. Or she may be a demon/devil…hahahah
March 26th, 2010 at 11:16 am
hehe well if she goes to hell atleast she will fit in xD
March 26th, 2010 at 1:45 pm
For those wondering its a skin disorder, layers of tough skin build up to form the horn,similiar to warts. Definatly not bone like animal horns and not photoshopped.
March 27th, 2010 at 2:01 pm
That looks like skin cancer to me and I see signs of it on other parts of her face.
March 27th, 2010 at 2:50 pm
@ photo
u are wrong actually I encountered the same odd that I saw here in our country and the professional doctors said that kind of horn thing that grows in the forehead is kind of a disease or a syndrome, as far as I know they have an explanation regarding to that medical condition.
March 27th, 2010 at 7:15 pm
a horn ,so what ! many others do have horns and to spare in their way of thinking.
March 27th, 2010 at 7:48 pm
The horns can grow from a certain type of wart that comes from a virus (a pretty common one that only causes problems in people with weakened immune systems).
If you’ve seen the so-called “tree man” who looks like he is growing roots all over his body, it’s the same thing.
March 27th, 2010 at 7:59 pm
Brain is wonderful too. So go get one and learn how to type something other than “photoshop” under photographs. All kinds of astonishing things happen around the world, whether good or bad. This outgrowth is one of them and it’s rather sad. People like you need to wake up from the adolescent repeat-each-other’s-declarations behaviour, start thinking with your brain cells and notice some reality, at least around yourself!
March 29th, 2010 at 2:07 pm
It’s too bad she doesn’t have another horn on the opposite side. The symmetry would be mad cool.
March 29th, 2010 at 6:30 pm
In photo one the horn points up. In photo two the horn points down. The photo still looks cool.
March 30th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
truth is often just as strange as fiction.
April 3rd, 2010 at 7:21 pm
In the back i think a tail starts to grow.
April 3rd, 2010 at 10:45 pm
If its skin cancer or disorder then
Mj is comeing back through the old lady
April 9th, 2010 at 11:25 am
Omg its the woman-bear-pig !!!(half woman/half bear/half pig)
April 14th, 2010 at 11:32 am
This only happens in Asia :p
April 16th, 2010 at 2:56 pm
Two bad she doesn’t have the pair. Would be neat.
April 20th, 2010 at 12:49 am
That’s so cool
I wish i had one
April 20th, 2010 at 6:04 am
i feel pity on her… cause nobody wants to have a horn on forehead…
April 20th, 2010 at 6:42 am
That’s some funky wart. Too bad they freak-showed her. I don’t think they have laser treatments and beauty spas (or exorcists) there. Go Granny. You stay horny and beautiful til the end. Your family supports you! Go freaks of the world. We all belong to that club sooner or later.
April 20th, 2010 at 6:43 am
I think shes hot. The things I could do with that horn…WoW
April 22nd, 2010 at 6:02 am
if you look closely it looks like another is going to come out on the other side….and she will have two…that is sooo scary!!!!!!!!
April 22nd, 2010 at 4:45 pm
yikes it looks like some creepy human form of cordyceps! ..look it up. gross! either that or she’s a demon.. fa sho.
April 23rd, 2010 at 1:46 am
Yes, it’s odd. Yes, it’s a little creepy. But no, she’s not a demon. It’s likely a highly-developed carcinoma; she really needs to get it cut off.
April 23rd, 2010 at 7:10 am
In Africa she will be called a witch, but this could be abnormal growth like a tumor and can be cut off medically, she is a celebrity and a case study for the scientist of our time.
April 23rd, 2010 at 7:44 pm
it’s a zit…pop it!
April 24th, 2010 at 12:52 am
Unicorn! 8D
April 24th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
It looks more like a half bear / half woman-pig… NO, no.. more like a half woman / half bear-pig!
April 24th, 2010 at 7:32 pm
its a Cutaneous horn type on nonmalignant cancer you get after exposure to radiation.
April 25th, 2010 at 5:23 am
In the first photo the horn is attached to the head with a smooth transition of pinkish skin. In the second and, particularly, the third photo there’s black outline around where the horn is attached to the skin, so that it looks glued on.
Differences point to well-done, but inconsistent (between photos) Photoshop manipulation (coming from a professional retoucher with 16 years of experience).
April 25th, 2010 at 6:31 am
dude, okay honestly just like look at it… it looks like a fat blackhead.
April 25th, 2010 at 6:40 am
100 years old? I can only hope I look that good, horn or not, when I’m 100 years old.
April 25th, 2010 at 7:40 pm
No shes not a demon, idiots would jump to conclusion or try to make funny remarks, but this is pretty strange, would be cool if they look into it and explain why she has it growing.
April 25th, 2010 at 11:57 pm
Each photo is taken from a different perspective. Each. There’s a pinkish, a whiteish, a blackish and all kindish kinds of skin that serve as a transition between the forehead and the horn. It is very consistent and it’s not photoshoped. And what kind of photoshop specialist with 16 years of experience would want to waste their time doing this? I mean, this is not Angelina Jolie or anything, it’s not like they’re going to make mountains of money with this. Guys, this is for real, people get ill.
April 26th, 2010 at 11:57 am
What did she do in her 100 year life to get that horn????
April 27th, 2010 at 6:21 pm
I wonder what would happen if she broke it off ?
April 28th, 2010 at 2:08 pm
AND THE DEVIL MAY CRY! xD
April 29th, 2010 at 1:12 am
aw poor old lady, guys she’s not a demon, shes just a really old lady with some kind of cancer tumor on her forhead so stfu
April 30th, 2010 at 7:41 am
That’s….messed up
May 1st, 2010 at 5:15 am
Shes lucky these arent the dark ages or she’d be burnt at stake!
May 3rd, 2010 at 10:28 am
Ya’all need to leave that lady and her horn alone. At least she grew it at an old age, while some of the younger people in this world run around looking far worse without any horns, and from a much younger age. The look ya’all wearing right now is UGLINESS!!!! I hope she come in ya’all dreams/nightmares and stabs your eyes out with her DEMON horn……now, WHAT????
May 4th, 2010 at 10:50 am
Someone obviously took a horn and Photoshop®ed an old lady around it. She looks so fake.
May 10th, 2010 at 11:30 am
Wow, this is definitely unusual. Reminds me of the ‘tree man’ story. Forget the horn though, for a 100 year old lady, she sure looks fit and healthy!
May 11th, 2010 at 4:09 am
Having an internal tumor is not necessarily a bad thing. External tumors should not be frowned upon necessarily. Let’s just wait and read what others have to say about that external tumor. I accept nothing at face value. I can have a wait and see attitude. Is there anything wrong with that?
You have an intelligent attitude, Ekoi. Maybe it is known what it is. It just hasn’t been explained here. There was a real man that had an extremely deformed body. I understand that he lived at the National Institutes until he died. He was called Elephant Man. A movie was made of him and he was the star. He was so ugly that some people felt so sorry for him that he was easy to love by many. That proves that beauty is only skin deep. He was a brave man.
Go to Google and search “Elephant Man”

It is a condition known as cutaneous horn. The cutaneous horn appears as a funnel-shaped growth that extends from a red base on the skin. It is composed of compacted keratin (the same protein in nails). The size and shape of the growth can vary considerably, but most are a few millimeters in length. Squamous cell carcinoma is often found at the base. It usually occurs in fair-skinned elderly adults with a history of significant sun exposure. Obviously, hers has grown exponentially.
May 15th, 2010 at 8:04 pm
umm i just read the first few comments and u guys are soo effin mean!!!! u should feel sorry for this woman!
May 16th, 2010 at 4:34 am
1) The last unicoooooorn — i wonder if her name is Charlie…
and
2) what is she eating?
May 17th, 2010 at 12:52 am
She actually has a black spot on the opposite, too. Freaky
May 20th, 2010 at 4:03 am
Looks painful.
May 20th, 2010 at 11:29 am
is she real a 100 yr old …she looks totally fine n she even has enough teeth to pull some meat too..thts crazy….on top of that she has a horn….ha ha
May 21st, 2010 at 6:02 am
It’s what “Tree Man” Dede Kosawa has.
June 3rd, 2010 at 7:24 pm
This is photoshopped, if you check th first and second pics you will see the the “horn” is curved downward in one photo while it is relatively level in other pics. The shapes of these things do not change shape as you move about, I say it is fake.
June 3rd, 2010 at 10:34 pm
lol. She has another one on the other side of her head. Notice the black circle? It hasen’t grown, but it is there. She is like a dragon or a demon, she is probably the first mutant… I see another sequel to X-Men coming: X Men: Rise of the Dragon Demon
June 4th, 2010 at 10:39 am
Just goes to show, even the old get horny!!
June 6th, 2010 at 12:21 pm
How could you do business by telling a lie and freakening people?There are lots of means to gain money other than using photoshop to make a trick!
June 7th, 2010 at 1:58 am
omfg that is crazy!!! i guess no one’s really supposed to live that long o.o shes become a demon… i wonder if shell get her other horn when she reaches 300..=o
June 13th, 2010 at 1:31 pm

June 13th, 2010 at 6:49 pm
I saw a cow with 5 legs once..
June 16th, 2010 at 1:10 pm
WTF
June 27th, 2010 at 2:44 am
Someone said……….. “It’s too bad she doesn’t have another horn on the opposite side. The symmetry would be mad cool.”
How cool would it be if it grew on your forehead?
July 12th, 2010 at 1:28 pm
unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ad scaring……………….
