FWIW, that's why I linked to the Wikipedia page about it. It's pretty much all text, no shock graphics, and within a few sentences, any person can tell whether they want to continue reading or not.
The first time I saw the original goatse image, I though I was gonna puke.
The flip-side are all the humorous goatse parodies and tributes that have emerged elsewhere. Content warning on that link too, of course.
never heard of this stuff before. Just figured after my last tag was banned , maybe my *ahem* danish cartoon portrait of muhammed ( peanut butter and jelly) might not be. any similarity to any other reference is merely a bonus.
