Okay, I saw it. Made my boyfriend look at it first :). It’s not _that_ bad, just disgusting. Don’t quite understand why someone would want to do that, but…her choice. :rolleyes: Don’t look at it with a weak stomach, or at work.

Jesus H. Christ! Never again.

\<crawls to bed, slides between covers, whimpering\>

I made the mistake once of trying to find out what goatse was all about, despite being warned against it. I learned my lesson that time.

fauxpas - google the terms and you’ll find out.

We can’t link to them - it’s not allowed on these Boards, and it’s also cruel and unusual punishment.
