Sex, guns, drugs, rocknroll, fashion blog site from a few years back? Link please?
A few years back probably between 2006 and 2009 there was this link to an art directors site going around. He had a demo reel with some great companies like maybe nike or adidas and album covers? Anyway, the content of his blog was a series of Sex, guns, drugs, rock n roll and fashion images, mostly in black and white. He really had an amazing series of images.
Long story short, my computer was stolen and I lost all my bookmarks. If there's one bookmark I wish I could get back...that would be it. I tried searching it on mefi but I'm completely swamped with unwanted results. If someone knows what I'm talking about, it would be greatly appreciated.

Kind of a long shot based on your description, but you might enjoy The Selvedge Yard regardless of whether it's what you're thinking of.

Response by poster: It was very similar to Terry Richardson, but it was in the Them-thangs format. Very freeform kinda just dumped onto a web page. It used to take FOREVER to load because they were just all in one place. I'd bring up the page and let it run in the background as it dloaded everything. You could scroll down to something and then five minutes you'd be in a sea of other stuff as other images had loaded.

I cannot believe I am actually doing this. It's 3.40 am, this question has been haunting me for 2 months now. I woke up from a loud noise outside and I suddenly realized that the name of that blog might be 'The Acid Sweat Lodge'. Now if somebody could explain why I remembered this, I can go back to sleep.

Response by poster: It wasn't ASL. What I remember was that it was a very specific art directors page. He had directed videos for ... i think nike? I know...that's like a trillion people right there... There were no links, or any kind of text, unless it was in the image. There were pictures of insane amounts of guns with money, drugs, women...kitsch.
I love you guys for even trying to figure this out.

Mod note: Final update from the OP:
I only now remember that I think Dear Coketalk posted it on her now defunct Tumblr.posted by cortex (staff) at 11:37 AM on February 11, 2021
Like I said, it was an artist portfolio and image dump for inspiration.
