Blogs and Albino Black Sheep don't count as reliable sources. JuJube (talk) 08:55, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

I think lazy sunday is a pretty cool guy. eh raps about red vines and doesn't afraid of anything

Any reason there's no Lazy Sunday on this page? I know it didn't originate on the internet, but that's where it really took off, and spawned numerous response videos. Just curious, I guess. I'm generally in favor of trying to keep this sort of article from including too much crap, but this one is certainly notable. -R. fiend (talk) 18:50, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Merge from Shock site?

What do people think about removing the list of sites from Shock site and instead, pointing the readers here? Mangojuicetalk 03:44, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I think the 2 girls 1 cup should go here and then shock site should point here in a "see also". Ogrish and goatse aren't phenomena per se, they are sites. Personally, I think this article is long enough as it is just listing individual videos by themselves or sites that are famous for just one thing. It would get too long if we also use it as a place to list popular sites that are famous for a whole style of content. Wikidemo (talk) 18:33, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Note that Goatse.cx is already in the list here. I agree that popular or momentarily popular websites aren't necessarily "Internet phenomena" but the definition of shock site includes two types of things: (1) orindary web sites like Rotten.com or Ogrish that host shocking material, and (2) extremely shocking image/video memes. The latter type certainly is a type of Internet phenomenon, right? Mangojuicetalk 14:03, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
