I think part of the confusion may be that when the site was taken down, the mirrors that sprung up were things like goat.se, etc.

I’ve heard it pronounced “goatsee” and said that myself back when the original site was live. You are 100% right on the intent of the name though.

Not trying to be pedantic, but the original was goatse.cx

Thanks for the explanation! It is unbelievable that these are the folks with nuclear codes.

Thanks for the recommendations, those and this Wild Blue game lol great.

Not defending the 88, he could be a racist, but he’s apparently from Taiwan. It is a common number in Chinese culture, guessing Taiwan too. Where I live there have been a couple of businesses with “88” in the name and both were Chinese.
