This actually happened to me with Jade from Beyond Good & Evil

      These days? Mah boi, back in my day you’d very easily end up accidentally watching something horribly illegal just seconds before your computer is bricked by a Trojan.

      Sometimes, you weren’t even looking for porn!

        the lawless years of the internet were beautiful, i experienced most of them when i was a child, and i turned out normal (that’s a lie, of course, i’m unsure how watching happy tree friends or one man one jar at 12 years old fucked me up, but i’m sure it did, somehow)

          I think there’s an entire generation of us that thinks tubgirl, goatse (I remember reading the guy’s story, or at least someone pretending to be that guy and writing the story), beheadings, and hatchet vs. genitals are completely normal experiences. Who didn’t watch all those, right?

            Seeing tubgirl, goatse, and meatspin put a temper on my curiosity to the point that I can say I’ve never seen two girls one cup, even though I think it was the most “popular” out of all of those except maybe goatse. Hearing the description was enough to sate any curiosity.

            I also know that Rick rolls are wholesome because it replaced surprise links to those. Plus Rick Astley is a genuine treasure and I’m glad becoming a meme didn’t end up hurting him.

    Everyone’s minds are going straight to porn, but I have an explanation for this:

    There is a lot of lore in OW; Blizzard has a ton of videos on YouTube that do a deep dive into it. Entire mini episodes of the stuff. My nieces and nephews (all under the age of 8) love every OW video Blizzard uploads. They didn’t know there was a game, either. To them it’s just another cartoon.
