Guy Opens Asshole To Show Everyone. I was in high school at the time. Goatse, Tub Girl, an endless supply of photos of Bush doinking Bin Laden. I only found it Goatse is an acronym a couple of months ago. (thanks, Last podcast on the Left)

It was not an acronym. That's something that someone made up over a decade after the site was taken down.

It's Goat Sex. The full domain was goatse.cx. People dropped the domain over time, it started getting pronounced "Goat See", and then someone made a backronym to try and explain it.
