Somebody has to think of the children.
Long term readers will know this is something I’m particularly concerned about: internet porn. The fact that I continually give leading titles to posts that lead desperate pornhounds here should not fool you. I am pledged to fight against the filth of the internet polluting innocent minds. No, really.
I’ve been on the net for quite a while. Back in the mid 90s a friend and I played a game where we would email each other the grossest image we could find. The basic rule was you had to respond with something grosser than had been sent previously. The game eventually stopped when we descended to far. We learned an important lesson: that game has no winner.
One of the most notorious bits of internet grossness is known as goatse. I’m not going to give much in the way of description on this blog. But I will provide a link that describes it… accurately. Explicitly. Without actually inflicting the image on you. But before providing the link, I will provide a warning.
Don’t go there.
Seriously. If you aren’t already familiar with goatse, trust me, you don’t want to be. There are some things you can’t un-see. If you get my drift. If your mind has been spared this particular horror then cling to that little bit of purity. Don’t lose that. It’s precious.
Before I give you the link that explains goatse, I’m going to provide you with a warning link. This is what happens if you search for “first goatse” on Flickr. You get a bunch of images of people seeing goatse for the first time. Ask yourself if you really want to share that horror.
If you’re determined to discover what I’m on about, here’s a link to the Wikipedia article explaining what goatse is. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Those who already know what goatse is and those who read the article will have no doubt what this image is:
It’s obviously an internal view of goatse. This image was in my local paper! The cover story was that they were illustrating some story about recycling plastic bags. But they aren’t fooling me. They’ve obviously placed a digital camera… inside the subject and taken a picture. You can see the veins and everything.
And can I just add: that guy looking in? He’s enjoying himself waaaaaaay too much.

Oh, I remember MY first view of goatse.
I think I cried…
I, too, remember my first and only goatse view. Sadly, that image will stay with me forever. Don’t do it people – you can’t un-view the goatse.
Goatse nothing….that guy in the picture is seriously creeping me out!!! I’m gonna need therapy just from seeing the look on his face….as if he’s thinking “Can I climb in there?” Gah!! My eyes….my eyes!!! I need hot pokers to burn out my eyes!!
btw – is there any connection between your posting this article today and *this* article that came out today????

Dude!!! That’s just not right………
Oh, sweet Lord. You told me not to, which made me want to, and so I did, and now I can’t undo it!
freshcracker: that’s an understandable response
paul: previous generations have “remember where you were when JFK was shot? We have remember when you first saw goatse?
cinnkitty: yeah, the guy really creeps me out. Awesome article by the way, I can see a video coming out of that
submonkey: you mean all my teasing made you go look? Goodness, that was never my intention 😉
blech
You are evil… I love it!
Besides all warnings I went to the Wikipedia article. I did NOT go any further, but I learned sometimes imagination can be your enemy.
I didn’t know sphincters had that much play in them….Truly!!!
That’s very scary, Mr A.
PS I will be in Melbournia in the third week of Augustus. Ms Vetti, Mr Gizo and some others are keen to catch up… Interested???
Let me know, so I can start planning earlier rather than throwing something together the day before…
Will be down the 11th August, staying for at least a week, although may be more (May take a weeks holiday before or after).
Let me know…
I shared your ‘plastic bag’ goatse to a very dear friend of mine… all she said was that the photo man ‘had pretty eyes’. There was no shock, no comment on the questionable nature of goatse, I suspect there may be something she is not telling me…
I had a college roommate who tried to post something nasty on the fridge each week. I would take it down but her would put it right back up.
One night I brought home a date- a good conservative girl. She got up to get a drink from the fridge and a moment later I heard her scream. I ran in to see what was wrong. There on the fridge was a picture of a naked guy eating some naked woman’s diarrhea. Bar none the nastiest thing he ever posted.
I was so pissed!
Simonne said what I wanted to say!
That’s some top notch Goatse right there.
Okay…I thought I had seen everything. Now you have enlightened me to one more thing–that I’m not sure I even understand!!! LOL
Yikes!
Some sick little monkey finally tricked me into seeing Goatse a month or two ago. Finally, after all of these years, I had the permanent image of rectal horror burned into me mind. It was more a feeling of resignation than shock, or even anger. A sigh, and the acceptance of the horror was what came of it. Some are not as calm. If I may quote:
“I cried. I wept like some old grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn’t know what I wanted to do.”
Sandra: blech indeed
Simonne: Just as well you like it, no denying that’s the way I am.
Bizarro: the mind can be a deadly weapon
Gruntski: don’t underestimate the flexibility of the human body. And hell yes for getting together!
SubMonkey: be careful there…
Total: sick and wrong!
Insane: one of us… one of us
Qelquoth: I thought it was quite a find
jujubeez: you’re better off not knowing
E0157H7: we all deal with it in our own way. I’ve actually seen far worse.
well,i dint dare to look at those after so many responses..
Yeah, after you’ve seen Goatse once, seeing it again is kind of tame in comparison. But tubgirl is also good, if you like to vomit on your keyboard, that is.
You get the gold medal for the best Flickr link EVER.
I don’t want to see goatse. I grew up in a rural area where men fuck sheep. I really don’t need to see goatse and have a bookend to that image.
arvind: wise choice!
Qelgoth: Aren’t goatse and tubgirl considered a married couple?
QofD: Nice image, I can see you don’t want a worse one to go with it.
Unless Tubgirl enjoys swallowing Goatse excrement, I fail to see how they would enjoy marriage. But it is possible.
I think that if we are to speculate on Goatse’s significant sexual partner, we need look no further than MotherMan.
I’d enclose a link but it’s a bit too much, even by my standards. So if you, or any of your readers, are unfamiliar with MotherMan, you’ll just have to Google it.
I think the less we know about goatse’s personal life the better 😉
Forwarned is forearmed, I always say. I’m letting my imagination do the talking (viewing?) and I am NOT looking that up until I’ve had drinks in me. Many cold, lovely drinks.
That might make it worse.
That was way too gross!!!
You should have rated this post for age 18 & above…
…or maybe 21?
If this was to be inside my inbox, I would have deleted it straight away.
How can I imagined you actually email each other with your friend???
Yucks!
Eric: don’t imagine… it was sick and wrong.
Goatse is bad. I read about on stileproject, back when it was hip. Some vids aren’t porn, they are just yucky. Then again, a woman getting f**ked by a dog isn’t my cup of tea either. Takes all kinds I guess.
Yeah, well if you want yucky, stileproject is the place to go. It’s been a trusted source of mine for many years.
I was once a five year old girl with my innocence, and nieve mind, unitl one day i was searching for the disney website until i clicked the first link… Oh Em Gee!!! So much nakedness!!! Showing naked characters sporting off there female u know whats!!! We cant stop Google pornagraphy because it run by that kind of money and the porn sight age they expect is 4 through 10. The best we can do is start a search engine that enables locks for certain images and videos. Think for your children!!!
