Goatse.cx Is For Sale
fm6 writes "The domain goatse.cx is being auctioned. Bidding, at the time of posting, has reached $15K after 109 bids (with 6 days to go). Some of you will recall that this site used to be linked in a lot of Slashdot articles, despite having only a few pages. Boing Boing, with their usual creativity, has managed to depict Goatse's most commonly linked photo while still remaining within the bounds of good taste."
Unfortunately, it appears the the goatse.cx site is down. Fortunately, there's a mirror available at goatse.ch and goatse.cz.
There are shills on slashdot. Apparently, I'm one of them.
Clearly, seeing as he doesn't even know the difference between moderator and, *cough*, editor.
How we know is more important than what we know.
What, you think this is Kuro5hin? No, there's still people who are paid to read submissions and decide what best "represents Slashdot".. and yeah, they never read the site themselves, so they have no idea what is on Slashdot.

i was surfing about.com's list of religious symbols awhile back and found out, much to my shock and amusement, that the goatse.cx guy is an ancient celtic god

Yes you do. They are very serious about that. They will track you down. If you don't have the money you can expect serious trouble.
Good luck.

"You'll be surprised how many people, making millions on the Internet, have no clue what it is.
Check out this set of pictures (or here) of people finding out exactly what goatse.cx is, while some nice person photographs the expression on their face.
$5.02402e+11 ought to be enough for anybody. It's $1e+12 now. Why do they even allow bids that big? It can't be serious.

As for the auction, I hope they choke on it.
The World Wide Web is dying. Soon, we shall have only the Internet.
They'll do what they always do when someone can't pay the entire sum that he owes. They'll get as large a portion as they can, by arranging personal bankrupcy, confiscation of assets with executory auction, confiscation of future income, and so on.

Funny, I don't find tubgirl disgusting at all. If goatse isn't bad enough for you, then try lemonparty. That's like (goatse+tubgirl)^5000.
The .cx people didn't pull goatse.cx just because they didn't like the content. From my understanding, they pulled it after a formal complaint, from a Christmas Island resident (named Rhonda Clarke), who complained very specifically about one thing - the link to dolphinsex.org. Without said link there would have been no basis for it being pulled, but bestiality is illegal in .cx, thus this link contravened the T&Cs of domain registration, so it was pulled.

Tubgirl's gross-out value was slightly ruined for me after I found out it's actually an orange juice enema she's expelling, rather than liquid poop, which is the instinctive assumption.
$1e+12 now...
Wow... I am glad it does exponents...
