Rotten.com

Rotten.com is the name of a website devoted to curiosities such as autopsy[?] or forensic photographs, depictions of perverse and other sexual acts, and historical curios that are disturbing or otherwise misanthropic in nature.

During 2000 and 2001, Rotten.com was strongly associated with several of the Slashdot trolling phenomena, with several of its exhibits such as the "The Incident With The Bird" and the "The Incident With The Fish" directly responsible for penis bird and penis fish, respectively, ASCII art messages posted to the Slashdot website. Mischievous users would also put disguised links to within the Rotten.com website in their messages in an attempt, much like with the Goatse.cx trolling phenomenom, to trick an unsuspecting reader into inadvertantly viewing an unpleasant image.
