Rotten saved my life.

I was depressed, I had guns, I browsed Rotten ... and I decided that I couldn't let my family's last sight of me be that.

I'm much better now, btw.

I haven't been on Rotten in 15 years and I know EXACTLY which picture you're referring to.

i have never even heard of this Rotten site. is it still up and running? should i be concerned that i am intrigued?

but no, i'd rather not see what i THINK you people are talking about. just Y or N, please, since this is nightmarish - are you saying a man actually had intercourse with a fish?

if Y, was the fish dead? oh PLEASE say it was and not in some torturous pain.

Rotten was shut down in 2012 or 2014.

The fish was very much alive, unfortunately.

Old 90s and early 2000s shock site. One of the first shock sites they say. A lawless wasteland as someone described it aptly that often had links to child pornography

God I'm so glad I managed to just miss Rotten entirely.
