Gaping asshole

A lot of people on the Internet like to hotlink to pictures.

Hotlinking: “It is possible to use a HTML tag in a webpage to embed material from another site in it. Thus when the webpage is sent to someone to view, the bandwidth for the embedded material is supplied by the owner of the second site.” [source]

So basically they were stealing my bandwidth. My most famous popular pictures are a tinfoil hat and a red button. People would find them through Google Images.

I was tired of bandwidth thieves, so I went ahead and overwrote those pictures with a picture of a (DON’T CLICK IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE DISGUSTED) horribly ugly gaping asshole.

This means that now there are hundreds of pages out there (profiles, discussion forums, personal websites, etc, etc) that now show a gaping asshole instead of a cute tinfoil hat picture.

A few people have noticed it and quickly removed the picture. But most people still see it. I love seeing some girl’s webpage with flowers and unicorns and a gaping asshole.
