Way back in college I downloaded what looked like a Weezer cover of a song by Sarah Maclachlan - "Ice Cream" - and found to my shock it was not.
It was such an unsexy and awkward performance by a couple of college kids and just a few seconds were enough to cause my brain to spasm painfully and the only way to calm the gag reflex was to immerse myself in my architecture magazines.

A homemade VHS tape harmlessly labeled "The Goonies" and carelessly placed by "Annie - The Movie". Till then, I had never even seen a naked man much less the deed itself... Still haven't seen The Goonies.
it was 11:59am, I realized (as I often do at the very last second) that I'd forgotten to write a post for the open thread. I knew we were talking about sex tapes, I searched for 'sex tape image' (big mistake), then I had the idea that a photo of an old fashioned movie being shot (think Lumiere or Buster Keaton) would be a funny and non-gross visual to attach to the post. I search 'old fashioned movie set photo' about 4 different ways, nothing. Now it's 12:01pm, the show is 1 minute late in starting. I furiously type some other search term in and see the daguerreotype in question and call it good. Does it look like the man is making a sex tape about the young women on the playground? probably. was it the best I could do under the circumstances? yes. Do I regret it? never.
The nomination stands! It's amazing, and it made me laugh. Feeling better about the Veyron sham. But still funny. Speaking of mislabeled videos, I remember trying to download a Christina Aguilera video (Shamber) back in Kazaa days, and upon opening it found it to be a snuff film from some Balkan war where you watch a man kill another pleading person with a large knife. Still have nightmares. Still burned into my brain. Still can't watch CA videos. Squirm!
