      <anything>.on.nimp.org or whatever as well. Nothing like those days when your browser window could move itself around, duplicate windows, set your volume to 100%, the early internet was a WILD time.

        For me, the awakening to the vileness of the internet, was the “Offended” page on Encyclopedia Drammatica. People who wanted to ruins other’s time on forums in a raid would basically post it as if it were a rickroll of sorts, just a completepy harmless comment with a link. And then the page would have 3 innocuous image right before showing you horrifying gore and body horror. I’m quite sure some of the most awful stuff usually on these lists, like screenshots of the guy who mutilates his own scrotum, were in there.

      I only saw the 2 girls 1 cup because a friend showed it to me. I thankfully missed out on all the others but I am aware of them.

    I miss the Wild West days. It built character.

    Children today never have to see this kind of shit anymore.

      Good for them. Seeing that shit so early in life desensitized too many people in my generation in the worst ways and that’s the last thing humanity needs right now.

        It seems to me like the younger generation are less callous than my own generation, and certainly less so than the boomers.

        The worst way to be desensitized is against violence, not butt stuff.

          I’m not sure if I’m misunderstanding this or maybe you don’t know what the references are, but the OP is not just referring to “butt stuff”.

            I’m certainly not going to go item by item there, but several are entirely consensual and just icky. Older generations are much quicker to kill actual people.

      Dude, are you kidding? Did you forgot about Ronnie mcnutt (RIP)? Kekma. ga? And really being decensitized at such a young age isn’t some thing to be proud of lmfao. I think the kids are doing right if they don’t see that stuff lol.

    bless all the people who’ve seen those things and provide accurate descriptions so the rest of us don’t have to bear that burden

          True. I was unfortunate to encounter a lesser known pic of a chainsaw accident. More than two decades later and I can still cringe about that one, can still picture his “face”

    I miss the old internet. I loved how it hadn’t seeped in to every part of my life yet. I liked that you had to use a PC as sort of a dimensional gate to enter the world of the weird. It meant most users were also a bit weird.

    I’m so grateful that even though I started using the internet fully unsupervised at 11 years old, I never stumbled upon anything fucked up like that, maybe a few gorey photos, but I have never actually seen any of those things you mentioned.

      Not sure if I just lack the morbid curiosity most people have, but I never understood the draw to look for those things. I’d hear about them and just put it on a mental list to never touch.

    I only knew about the existence of some, not all, of the things listed on the geiser. Here starts that mental tug o war in which I want to satiate my curiosity but I’m also afraid of needing eyebleach.

      Eye bleach would definitely be needed.

    If the internet has taught me something. Take everything as a literal and never check the unknown especially when people tell you not to. You may just find something much worse than the last worse stuff.

    Damn, I don’t know what any of these are except for the last one and luckily I’ve never seen it. I’ve been on the internet for a long time.
