revenge

revenge is a dish best served cold. with total lack of html skills. it's all about the message damnit, not the medium.

I think I saw this on All My Children

Indeed LuxFX, that was my first question. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that he typed it in himself...its not a pic or anything, just hard codes numbers.

maybe sex is an acronym for something and this is all just a huge misunderstanding.

Why is there a banner ad at the top?!

Banner ad is placed there by Dreamwater, who provides the free space.

Lots of backfire potential. Would you want to be his next girlfriend?

I admit it... I let him fall in love with me and then I farked his cube-mate. Seek not further knowledge, for ten million people are as many as I can stand in my vagina at one time. Please let this horrible mistake fade into the past and may God help you Cyrix to learn the difference between love and dry-humping one's limp-membered way through one's wedding night. I'm sorry momma. I know you wanted me to be a ballerina.I hope this scandal doesn't mean you'll leave the trailer and all to Billy. You know how he would never take care of it...

"...it's all about the message..."

And the message would seem to be: "404 Not Found."

Fake.

The message and the medium are *one* and both seem to be advertising. This has to take the prize for the most pop-up advertising generated by clicking on a link that I have seen for some time. Talk about *revenge*.

well, it wasn't like that when i first got there.

oh well. such is the web.

Judging from the URL quonsar posted, I take it we are talking NOT work safe.

The site is totally worksafe. The mirrored Meepzorp url (try saying that 5 times fast) is a lot more racy than what you'll see there.

I hardly ever trust a site with no links on it; I always wonder how people find these things in the first place, and the answer is that they're usually planted via email, like Rubberburner (which just redirects to Lee Dungarees now) and then people start linking to it. I did see this when jcterminal first posted it, though, and the people had eyes ;)

the people had eyes ;)
having recently enjoyed an overabundance of law-talkin' style communiques, and having also taken the bait hook, line, and sinker on this one - i thought obliterating distinguishing features might alleviate the imagined flood of cease and desists i would surely receive after posting the mirror. oh well. i also once linked rubberburner. :-)

This would work as revenge if people linked to it using the names of the guilty parties, ie. Google Bombing. And even then, not very well.

Oh, so did I, so did I. And I believed every word of it!

the best revenge on the man who stole your wife is letting him keep her.

Precisely, dcgartn...precisely.
