Ah, Jesus, I just saw goatse. I had been careful. I studiously avoided it. I worked so hard, so very hard never to see it, and then just now homunculus indirectly and unintentionally led me to his door. His wide, open, gaping, cherry red door. I've seen worse, but JESUS CHRIST, my eyes. Someone hold me.

Did that really have to be on the front page instead of "more inside"? It brought it all rushing back.

Yeah, I saw it that way too. Tried not to, suddenly there it was. I feel your pain. You'll forget eventually.

You'll forget eventually.

...until someone mentions it again. You can't unsee things like that, alas.

I puked in my mouth a little when I read your description. Thanks.

First time I saw it: there was a thread on Metafilter, someone had discovered there was an account with a user name something like "login" and the password was "password." Everybody was going nuts posting really heinous stuff with that account. That is where I first encountered goatse. I still haven't been able to scrub it from my mind.

if you can go that long without ever being subjected to 2g1c, you're fortunate.

2g1c was the first thing I thought of, after I picked myself up off the floor. It's only a matter of time, I suppose. How long will it be? HOW LONG?!?!?!?

Hey, you ever hear about this thing called "Tub Girl"?...

Man, I have successfully avoided all of these for years by never clicking on links anywhere at any time. I type each URL carefully into the address bar.

No one seems to understand my deep and abiding love for goatse. Seriously I love goatse.

I goatse'd AND tubgirled my sister.

I've managed to avoid 2g1c so far, but will probably be ambushed at some point.

lemonparty, anyone? I dare you...
