Topic: tag alias: spread_anus -> goatse

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

1. Spread anus is 4 letters longer and is 2 words instead of 1
2. Goatse is better because it gives a name to the action, we don't tag vore with tags like mouth_eating anus_eating vaginal_eating cock_eating

I'm almost for implicating it the other way around, but I've seen goatse implied without an anus actually being present, so it probably wouldn't work in practice.

Goatse is more than just spread anus.

Spread_anus

Goatse

Goatse should be implicated, but neither should be aliased. We could probably add the goatse tag to some more pics as well.

Looking at some of the goatse pics, I think this one probably shouldn't have the tag anyways:

If it does get implicated, this would end up with the anus tag, which it obviously shouldn't.

Wait, isn't goatse like gore and stuff? I'm confused.

Nope, just a very famous rectum.

You may be thinking of guro, but probably not.

It's a dude who spreaded his anus on the internet

An implication is a better idea that could work, implicating goatse to --> spread_anus as a more extreme degree of a spread_anus. Mostly.

But that would mean that the anus tag gets implicated to this: post #68772 post #15989

Both of which are references to it but don't show the action. The problem is because "goatse" is as much a meme as it is an action. The action would work to implicate without any trouble. The meme though, doesn't. So I'm not sure it can work as an implication or not.

Perhaps for rating reasons we should have a second goatse tag goatse_(meme) implicated to meme. Maybe that would be too cluttered though. It's an odd case of a fake term having multiple meanings where, in this case, the most popular meaning is the action itself and another is the reaction of someone being mislead to seeing the action. Though those pictures should probably just have the goatse tag removed and a reaction tag added, on the other hand the second picture does show goatse (at least it's implied) but it's censored.

Then there are parody pictures with goatse that don't have an anus such as the famous "heaven goatse" but those aren't uploaded here AFAIK.

There's less than 25 of them, it would be simpler to just tag ~20 of them spread_anus and note it in the spread_anus wiki.
