Remember to break or spoiler any & all NSFW links in this Thread! Rule 34 of the Web is–if you can imagine it, there is pron of it. There may be an exception. Mary Tyler Moore. Too wholesome. ---

I’m assuming that you are wholly unaware of the phenomenon known as fan fiction? Dude, Sue Ann can’t handle all those boys all day long. ---

> [@Tengu](#): > > You seem to misunderstand how Rule 34 works… > > ‘Wholesome’ is an INVITATION. Yeah. Photoshops of attractive people are pretty trivial. Rule 34 shines when it comes to [wholesome things like Mythbusters](http://imagechan.com/images/f466dc5ff59aef47030cb6c8db8d1e32.jpg) or [downright weird](http://navid.radiantempire.com/pub/pix/Lustiges/rule34.jpg) stuff. (Those links aren’t exactly SFW, but they’re pretty tame. Browse rule34 (dot) paheal (dot) net for a while (probably best to break the link here), but kiss beloved childhood memories goodbye. 😉 ---

It may be an exception now, but, according to the bottom part of [this article](http://blog.newsweek.com/blogs/popvox/archive/2009/08/27/porn-parody-of-tv-sitcoms-are-adult-entertainment-s-new-gold-rush.aspx), it’s likely coming.

_Hogans Heroes_ / _Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS_ not a direct parody, but two sides of the same coin. Ilsa was filmed on the Hogan’s set not too long after it was canceled. Star Trek haa some fan fiction definitely not safe for work. Vulcans experiencing Pon Farr is ripe material for fan fiction. ---

Rule 34 is a bunch of bullshit. I have tried to find erotic images of Queen Elizabeth I and of the Bene Gesserits from _Dune._ I have been unable to find either, and those aren’t even that out-there (they both have huge cult fan followings). ---

Not Bene Gesserit specifically, but there is Dune stuff- [http://rule34](http://rule34) (dot) paheal (dot) net/post/list/dune/1 I have seen Henry VIII stuff before, so I’m sure there’s _something_ with Elizabeth out there, I’ll take a look later. ---
