Yeah, those were good times, when the internet had a kinda crazy edge to it.

Liveleak, stile, fark and gorgor.... Not social network friendly, but had a real personality.

Remember kids - Rick Rolling was the Safe for Work version of internet trolling.....

Fark is still around, but it's barely a glimmer of what it used to be before it went downhill. I certainly understand if someone wasn't aware it was still around, it's been almost 20 years since the case could be made that it was an important player in the news aggregation category of websites.
