Why the fuck are there pictures of an open anus and dick?

That's why we cannot have good things. People ruining someone else's work just for fun. That was not smart nor funny, and the goatse belongs to 90's.
I was appalled too. The price of making it open for anyone to edit. I reverted them; sadly, because of time zone differences, it took some time.
probably because the page was cross-linking to images on another host, and the admin of that host switched the images.

edit: this is called "goatse" btw. Don't google it.

I'm not familiar with HackPad, but I don't think that's what's happening, because the `img` tags point directly to goatse.info. I think someone edited the document, removed whatever content was once there, and replaced it with goatse pics. That's a shame, because I was interested in reading the article.
Reverted to the previous version.
