Now this, this is a quality prank. Even as it offends and revolts, it is completely harmless.
If you aren’t familiar with ‘goatse,’ maybe don’t go familiarize yourself with it right now, because it is truly one of the more revolting images on the entire internet. Which, you know, is saying A LOT.
And a couple intrepid pranksters hacked into an electronic billboard and swapped whatever the ad was for a gigantic goatse image, opening wide over downtown Atlanta.
Like I said, good prank. Via the Atlantic Journal-Constitution .
Drivers looking up at the wrong time on Saturday while passing the Franco Building on the corner of Peachtree and East Paces Ferry would have seen a digital picture of a bent over man, mooning, and he was also exposing other parts that usually remain more private.
Even the paper was shook up about it.
It is impossible to adequately describe or show the enormity of the offense without possibly violating laws and certainly the boundaries of good taste.
It’s a guy pulling his ass cheeks insanely far apart so as to display the interior of his now-gaping anus to the world. I think you can also see his dick. I didn’t break any laws there..
Police had to cut the power to the billboard to get the image off of it.
The scene drew a lot of attention Saturday after Officer T. Martin rolled up at 5:50 p.m. after getting complaints. Soon the Department of Homeland Security had dispatched a unit as had Georgia Power and Atlanta Fire. The building landlord Esther Franco Gordon showed up and the billboard’s owner Monumedia’s Christakis Makrides showed up and cut the power, deleting the images, Martin reported.
Like I said. A perfect prank. A group called the Assange Shuffle Collective took credit for it on Reddit.
Hello friends,
We are the Assange Shuffle Collective, and we’re responsible for the happy afternoon entertainment.Ironically, we didn’t realize that Buckhead was an incredibly affluent neighborhood, which makes the whole thing terrifically good fun.Burn the rich.
