Poll: The Internet is NOT for Porn

[Extraintrovert]

Internet: broken down

50% Porn
40% People doing stupid shit
10% Cats

Correction:

49% Porn
39% People doing stupid shit
9% Cats
3% All of the above

Oh sweet merciful crap, I laughed for about a minute straight after reading that. I should have learned by now not to eat while using a computer...

On topic: As I can't be bothered to look at the actual study, it really depends on what definition is used. Storage space, downloading, visits, number of files; focusing on one or several of these might yield differing results and affect the numbers, so that needs to be considered. In any case, 1.1 percent of the internet is fucking massive for anything in any capacity, so while The Internet Is For Porn [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheInternetIsForPorn] may not be completely true, it certainly is close. Besides, when the printing press was first invented, it produced only two things: the Bible and pornography. That such a vast amount of space of such a vast network is dedicated to sex is hardly surprising.

Seriously, have you ever seen some [porn] and thought "Wow. This is some tasty porn"?

Nah, perfunctory at best. When they can put porn up in the Tate, then I'll change it.

I agree that Porn is tasteless crap. Bodypart-Lego. But then again i dont think it has to be "tasty". It's like Mc Donalds Food. You know it's crap but sometimes it's just great to get some anyway.

If you didn't get it, it was a misquote of Samuel L Jackson from Pulp Fiction.

Most of it, there is gambling and cons too.

If the top one's true, then this is porn (actually, maybe it is to someone)

Remember what Yahtzee said.

Something along the lines of "If you're watching it, someone else is masturbating to it"

A Huge Amount. Thank god for the Escapist...

Thank god for the Escapist...

You don't...

Eugh!

It's more like the internet is for spam. for every bit of porn i see, 50 advertisements bombard my senses... which is odd cuz I didn't think taste or smell could be communicated through the interwebs. Rule 34 still applies though. Even if you don't want it too.

the internet has -alot- of porn. There is a huge market for it, so there is alot of product, if you know where to look.

Also, if you know where to look, you can also find non-porn related websites that provides you with what you need: if you know what you are looking for, and know where to look for it, you can find it. Just try not to be too distracted by the boobs.
