- Were you looking for Goats?
Goatse is one of the best loved and widespread (ha!) images on the internets. Many would argue that it is truly content like this that the Internet was invented for and all of the other stuff is merely an irrelevant side effect. The photograph is an incontinent incomparable testament to the indomitable human spirit and the need to push the boundaries of achievement. It perfectly illustrates what a man is capable of if he is prepared to stretch himself.
His image has graced many a workplace bulletin board and has delighted old and young alike. He is also the patron saint of constipation, due to some odd quirk of history.
A true inspiration, Goatse is the muse to many of the fine artists residing on b3ta.com.
A link to the radiance of Goatse may be found here.
Popular usage of Goatse
The Goatse image is traditionally used to shock unsuspecting viewers. Typically it would be disguised as a seemingly innocent link or email message. This is similar to Rick Rolling, in which viewers are tricked in to viewing a video of Rick Astley.
