Classic gross-out stories of the internet?

September 4, 2014 7:15 PM

Does anybody else remember Anal Fissure Bob? The Worm Within? What about the B3TA QOTW? For whatever reason, I am in the mood for More Of This Sort Of Thing.

What are some of the classics of the canon of Internet Grossoutery, in text format? I don't mean 4chan greentext nonsense, I mean the stuff we were all reading in the early oughties, which was both horrific and hilarious. Any recommended repositories?

Response by poster: rhizome, that is certainly grim but not exactly what I'm looking for - I'm thinking more "true confessions"-style stuff.

I've never forgotten this tale of an Attempt to Stuff Gerbil into Rat. (The Rat in question is human.)

Many of these were collected from Alt.tasteless. So that.

So help me I don't know why I remember that the Olestra story was on Zug. It was gross.

The Ryan's Steakhouse Story will stick with you, so to speak.

Do the stories necessarily have to be true? 'Cause I feel like Snopes has lots of gross-out stuff. (I'm scarred for life by that lobster "pregnancy" one ... bleagh.)
