Thank you, shrift. I appreciate it. At least I knew enough not to click on pictures (or ita's links).
You know, I've changed so many diapers, and seen so many varied events while doing so, that I'm pretty sure I'll forget that explanation with little to no trauma.
ita, I really feel there should be a comma between "goatse" and "Hec."
Por favor!
Though, come to think of it, the comma-less version is correct, also.
Hisss!
More backstage Hugh just for Scrappy:
Asked what it was like to run the gauntlet of the red carpet, he said that this year, he had it lucky - he followed Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie through the press obstacle course. He said he was like "an old plastic bag… I just let them tow me along in their wake."
And he said it’s no less crazy to win a Globe a second time (and no, he hasn’t figured out how to display the pair of statues in his home, he admitted).
"There is no way to prepare -- someone asked me if it would all be run of the mill now. It is sort of like your second parachute jump. You can’t be blase about a second parachute jump and start lighting a cigarette on the way down…. It was really a very exciting thing, still is."
Grey's Anatomy backstage weirdness:
The weirdest moment of the night was when the “Grey’s Anatomy” cast came backstage to talk about their best TV drama win. Someone asked about whether stars T.R. Knight and Isaiah Washington had made up, and as show creator Shonda Rhimes was in the midst of speaking, Washington grabbed the mic abruptly and rather angrily it seemed, and said “No, I did not call T.R.”’ a homosexual slur. “Never happened.”
OK. Let’s just say the mood was not festive on the stage. If anything, the look on Patrick Dempsey’s face was downright icy.
I'll forget that explanation with little to no trauma
The explanation in absolutely no way does justice to the trauma of the actual photo.
Ailleann, you poor poor thing.
I forgot the first time. I've never forgotten since. As tommyrot says, it cannot be unknown. It's like
tubgirl
that way.
Cindy, Hec did frame it quite...politely. The page was about a guy substituting this reknowned grossness for a picture of his that was being hotlinked all over, especially myspace.
That did occur to me with the provocateuse sites, but I ended up just cutting off all hotlinking instead.
Yah, see, I won't give that, not even in whitefont.
Bless you, ita. It's why as disturbing as your links can be, I still click them. Because there are places that you won't go to.
How'd it get the name?
I think originally the image was housed at goatse.ex and it was a play on "goat sex." There's probably more to it than that but I prefer not to do more research on this particular topic.
The explanation in absolutely no way does justice to the trauma of the actual photo.
this. You can almost see the guy's brain.
Though, come to think of it, the comma-less version is correct, also.
Hisss!
Why "Hisss!"? Do you *want* ita to link to your butt?
ita, please to not link to Hec's butt. Some mystery just makes him more dear to us.
As tommyrot says, it cannot be unknown.
Not sure if I said that. Anyway, haven't said it recently.
Back in the early days of the internet, I went to a website that claimed to have the most disturbing photos anywhere. I particularly remember one
of a man fucking a chicken (while a nude woman held it for him) and pictures of a guy who killed himself by cutting himself in half on a band saw.
So while my first exposure to goatse did result in an "Ew!" it's not burned into my brain as much as the other stuff.
Why "Hisss!"? Do you *want* ita to link to your butt?
Hmmm, on second thought I'm all about the mystery ass.
