A shock site is a website which aims to offend as many people as possible, generally by showing offensive images. It is used often as a form of attack during message board invasions. The following is a list of sites thought to be shock sites.
Major shock sites
Goatse.cx
Main article: Goatse.cxGoatse.cx is one of the most well-known shock sites, and perhaps the most infamous. The image which appears on the site's index, hello.jpg, depicts a man stretching his anus with his hands.
The site was taken down by the NIC .cx authority in January 2004, but there are several mirrors of the original site.

Tubgirl.com
Tubgirl.com was a redirect to a picture, tubgirl.jpg, containing a masked, naked woman lying in a bathtub, buttocks raised with her legs over her head, projecting a fountain of liquid from her anus. This liquid was originally thought to have been feces, but after it was revealed that this photo is part of a series, people thought it was orange juice. Before the launch of tubgirl.com, this image was featured in a rotten.com story "Fecal Japan" claiming that the subject matter is allegedly popular in Japan. The image displayed on tubgirl.com is marked as having been previously posted on consumptionjunction.com. The url address www.tubgirl.com now redirects to Consumption Junction, and displays the image with a "rate me" box, where viewers can rate the image from 1 to 10.

Last Measure
Main article: Last MeasureLast Measure is a shock site that utilizes flash to spawn endless pop-ups featuring many well-known shock pictures as well as NSFW audio. It also attempts to forward the site's address through your mail application. Previous versions utilized javascript.

Hai2U.com
Hai2u.com features an image of a woman vomiting while performing fellatio on a man sitting in a lawn chair, taken from a photo shoot by Max Hardcore. The actress uses the stage name Catalina and is featured in several of Hardcore's films. The site has the text "HAI2U!!!1 :)" in bold at the top of the page. The page is written in w3c validated XHTML 1.0 Transitional markup for officialness, and contains a link visible only in the Internet Explorer browser to make it your homepage. It was at one point highly ranked on a Google image search for "blowjob".

Fuck.org
Fuck.org features a picture of a black man having sex with an inflatable purple penguin, with a mysteriously serene expression on his face. This page formerly consisted of single different images in the past such as circuses, bold texts, etc.
External link: www.fuck.org
Mongface.com
Mongface.com, which has a banner title of "Jessica Alba Naked" to perhaps lure unsuspecting victims, shows an animation of a person inserting a telephone receiver into her anus. The song "Hanging on the Telephone" by Blondie plays in the background. The title above says "Mongface.com, Jessica Alba naked".
External link: www.mongface.com
CherryCake.org
CherryCake.org contains a picture showing the remains of a man who put a lit firecracker into his mouth. It is not yet known who he was. The name was chosen to trick people into going to the site, as the gruesome photo makes the victim look like an oozing cherry cake.
On February 16 2006, the front page was updated to show a picture of a fetus which appears to be suffering from a serious case of Harlequin type ichthyosis, followed by the original picture of the man's face after 2 seconds.

- Faggotry.com displays an old (or digitally altered to create the impression of) greyscale picture of five men, one of whom is lying on his back being fellated by another, who is in turn being penetrated by another, who is in turn being penetrated by another, who is in turn being penetrated by the fifth. The keywords used to help categorize the page with search engines contains various non-related terms such as: "white power, gilligan's island, radio free berkeley and iambic pentameter" among others. External link: www.faggotry.com

- Penis Bird is an image of a Scarlet Macaw perched on a man's erect penis. The page contains a note from a Slashdot reader asking that the image be relocated (if not removed) because Slashdot trolls are using hyperlinks to send unsuspecting users there. The page also mentions a crude ASCII art version of the penisbird, which appears from time to time on Slashdot. External link: smoke.rotten.com/bird
- Bold Leadership is a website that initially appears to be a tribute to George W. Bush, but after eight seconds, turns into a fugue of images from various other shock sites. External link: www.geocities.com/bold_leadership_4_a_better_world
- Meat Spin is a site containing a man and a transsexual engaging in anal sex. The transsexual is sitting on top of the man, and while the sex act is occurring, the penis of the transsexual is rotating in a circle. It plays the song, "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" by Dead or Alive, but originally played the now infamous "Ridin' Spinners" by Three Six Mafia. The website also counts how many "spins" a person sits through, and after 45 "spins", words appear declaring you "officially gay." The domain name was recently sold on eBay for $2,100 , and has since been commercialised. External link: www.meatspin.com
- CheapAbortions.com contains a presumably faked picture of an aborted fetus in a toilet. Also, there is a coat hanger on the toilet, insinuating a home abortion. External link: www.cheapabortions.com

- PimpMyGoogle.com is a picture of a large black penis which (by the look of it) has probably been burned badly. External link: www.pimpmygoogle.com
- Porkhole.net contains a picture of two old men 69ing. External link: www.porkhole.net
Former shock sites
- Lemonparty.org contained a picture, lemonparty.jpg, of three elderly men lying on a bed naked, engaged in kissing and oral sex. The site was defunct for a number of years before being restored, but has now gone down again.
- Workse.cx, a clone of the popular Goatse.cx page, featuring a televised Japanese comedian (Rakkyo Ide) being anally penetrated by what the site claims is a kangaroo, but according to the on-screen graphic is a dog of Tosa breed. The website appears to have been shut down by the Christmas Islands authorities.
- Desertofthereal.com contained a picture of a man eating feces from another man's anus. At the top it says "zomg, zizek~!" and at the bottom contains the text "DISCLAIMER: This picture does not depict anyone's genitals, and is therefore not pornographic in nature. I don't care if you're under 18. Go cry me a river." The color of the background was formerly white.
- Highballer.com contained a picture, highballer.jpg, of a man standing on top of a concrete platform with his trousers down, projecting a fountain of liquid feces.
- ShrewsburyCollege.co.uk was a site containing a photograph of a two men, one being anally penetrated by the other with what appeared to be a bicylce pump. In addition to that, both were covered in feces. The name of the site was taken from the Shrewsbury College of Arts & Technology, which used to be known by the acronym SCAT. The website has now been replaced by the actual Shrewsbury College website. This shock site was perhaps the only one to have appeared in a print newspaper, featuring in a front-page article of the Shrewsbury Chronicle in December 2005.
- Ljabuse.com and denisepaolucci.com were based upon GNAA's Last Measure shock site engine. They feature classic Last Measure images with crudely photoshopped faces of Denise Paolucci, a LiveJournal employee that heads up the Abuse team.
- Fist.tk featured a montage of various anal fisting and scat fetish pictures. Origins are unknown. The site existed in this form until around May 2003, when the content was taken down and a .tk placeholder put in its place. In early 2004 the placeholder was removed and different non-shock content added.
- Regentxxylol.org consisted of a picture of a man licking feces off another man's penis while the other man was vomiting, and another picture underneath of a man eating feces from another man's anus.
- Klerck.org was a website that had several images. The former webmaster of the site, Klerck, was found dead in the bathroom of his boyfriend's apartment on the morning of 8 March 2005. He posted a suicide note on his LiveJournal, which has since been suspended. A mirror of the suicide note can be found here.
- Ratemygoatse.cx was a rate me site of goatse related material in the style of Hot or Not. This site contained several grotesque images of people attempting different styles of "goatses". Once again this site was shut down by Christmas Island.
- Honkee.org was a site containing violently anti-semitic and homophobic posts, along with images, animated .gifs and short .avi movies on the same theme. The site went offline in 2004, apparently due to lack of funds.
- Lime Rave was a picture of a man with a large penis. The image did not show obvious signs of being Photoshopped (unlike giver.jpg of Goatse.cx. A programming script also "shook" the browser window upon entering the site, perhaps in an attempt to scare unsuspecting users.
- Biggernigger.com was an extremely graphic image of a large woman holding open her legs. Her legs, face and vagina were smeared with feces, and slimy, diarrhea like feces was on the sheet in front of her, whilst also dribbling out of her anus. She had a dildo or vibrator in her mouth. Below there was text reading "Hi Mom" in between two smilies.
- Bagslap.com was an video of a man engaging in anal sex with another man while a loop of a clip from a song saying "feels like heaven" played in the background. Other links on the page lead to animated pictures of other pornographic imagery set to other songs.
- Tubboy.net was an imitation of Tubgirl.com, which is described above.
