Websites stole and monetized a free browser game, so the designer replaced it with Goatse (www.pcgamer.com)

hey pcgamer, thanks for not using goatse in the preview. fucking 404media, not even a CW.

That’s why I didn’t use the 404 one. That article was a bit much with the goatse, even blurred.

Oh please, it’s just a goatse.

It’s not like they went with tubgirl, 2 girls 1 Cup, or arse glass smasher guy.

I have never heard about the lemonparty. Does it worth it?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

It is a just party with lemons!

Totally innocent

Don't forgot blue waffle for that list

I started reading the version posted, saw the original was on 404, clicked on that and shared the link with my wife, and as soon as I saw the link preview I IMMEDIATELY deleted it and said No! Don't read that one! It's not redacted enough!"

So in this case I absolutely agree, the PC Gamer version was the better one to share.

Oh and I thought of sharing the 404 link here for anyone interested..like me, but I was a bit disappointed, that it was only half the picture^^
