I think part of the confusion may be that when the site was taken down, the mirrors that sprung up were things like goat.se, etc.

I’ve heard it pronounced “goatsee” and said that myself back when the original site was live. You are 100% right on the intent of the name though.

Not trying to be pedantic, but the original was goatse.cx

Cool, I’ll check it out, thanks for the recommendation! I don’t think I ever played Zone 66.

The theme song is the shit
