Myspace Goatse'd

[Easy Mac]

If you don't know what Goatse is, I'm definitely not linking to it, nor am i going to discuss or post a picture here, I just felt the story being hxxp'd below was quite amusing.

In short, a guy was getting an image on his site hit 400k times a month by myspace because another company hotlinked to an image on his site for a template the company made. So the guy replaced the image with what could be seen as a crude image. The image was then hit 25k times via myspace in 2 days.

I enjoyed the responses from both a myspace user and the company who created the template that uses the guy's image (they request he take it down, the first threatening him physical harm).

Amusing anecdote. A bit childish to do so, but seeing as how garish myspace is, I'm shocked anyone actually noticed anything was different.

Was his name Greg from Ohio?

That is actually pretty hillarious. That guy certainly showed all them.

Granted the picture is disgusting...but still. Proved his point.
