That's pretty bad, but I think tub girl is worse. I will not link it for all that is holy, but I'm sure many of you have seen it. The reason it is worse is because that thing will never be in me, but I have seen the image of tub girl. So as far as pure internet existance, tub girl wins.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglerfish



Some anglerfish have a unique mating method. Since individuals are rare and encounters doubly so, finding a mate is a problem, especially at a time when both individuals are ready to spawn. When scientists first started capturing ceratioid anglerfish, they noticed that all of the specimens were females. These individuals were a few inches in size and almost all of them had what appeared to be parasites attached to them. It turned out that these "parasites" were the remains of male ceratioids.

When a male of one of these species hatches, it equipped with extremely well developed olfactory organs that detect scents in the water. They have no digestive system, and thus are unable to feed independently. They must find a female anglerfish, and quickly, or else they will die. The sensitive olfactory organs help him to detect the pheromones that signal the proximity of a female anglerfish. When he finds a female, he bites into her flank, and releases an enzyme which digests the skin of his mouth and her body, fusing the pair down to the blood vessel level. The male then atrophies into nothing more than a pair of gonads that release sperm in response to hormones in the female's bloodstream indicating egg release. This is an extreme example of sexual dimorphism. However, it ensures that when the female is ready to spawn, she has a mate immediately available.[2]

so true, hasselhoff. so true.

In fact, there's a flickr set that documents people's first reactions to seeing the horror of goatse: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrneutron/sets/1568481/

This reminds me, back in undergrad a good friend of mine left the studio to go get something to eat. He left his computer on which tempted us to be mischievous. We decided to change his wallpaper to another image. When he got back to his computer, he went ape shit! I have only heard so many curse words yelled in the studio rivaled by a professor before. Afterwards he didn't speak to us for a week.

That glorious image...Tub Girl!

Yeah, F'ing with computers is enjoyable. BUt I hate when people do it to me. More so now that the work on my computer is kind of priceless and more important. But yeah, undergrad didn't matter so much (I wasn't an arch in undergrad). My most playful, yet successful and memorable computer effing, was when I went in my friend's room and made her calculator come on everyday at 6pm. Now, being the resident computer nerd, at dinner one day she asks "Hey, my computer is being weird, the calculator keeps opening by itself, can you come help me out?" I responded, "oh yeah, I did that." It was fun for all.

I am glad there are no photos here. Think of all the innocent kids that come on to archinect.

It is sad how you have to get that quesy feeling out by watching other people react to it.
