I've got a Golden Ticket

Back in the Napster/Kazaa days, there was a version of "I've Got A Golden Ticket" that involved Grandpa Joe molesting Carlie.

PLEASE tell me someone else remembers this! Or better yet has a link to it. It'd be eternally grateful.

A very rough memory of the lyrics follows.

I never thought my life could be Anything but catastrophe But suddenly I begin to see A bit of good luck for me 'Cause I got a golden cane up in my butt.

Grandpa! grandpa moans oh Grandpa!

All sorts of 2 Girls 1 Cup reaction videos seem to involve grandparents, especially grandmas.

isn't that just SHOCKING?

Old ladies (sometimes also old men) get lured into seeing this DISGUSTING SITE from Internet history?

Well, I've been doing YouTube searches for reaction videos to this 2000s-era shock site! 2G1C makes Goatse look "family friendly", of which is why Internet trolls have been trying to lure in others into reacting to this.

SHOCK SITES may not be the type of sites I recommend viewing, but they are part of INTERNET HISTORY!!!!

Need help finding a forgotten music video or DnB track

Looking for a music video that showed up online from the early 2000s featuring a creepy floating head rotating and head banging to a really hard slapping DnB (or jungle) track. I used to know the music track/group, but have long since forgotten. From what I remember the head was in the center of a black screen, monochromatic (green I believe), and was animated perfectly to the drum and bass hits, and would make creepy faces along the way. The description said that it was animated in After Effects. Does any of this ring a bell? I don’t recall what website it was from, but I think it might have predated YouTube. The audio track had the feeling of maybe being within the Venetian Snares gravitational pull, or something that might have been published by Warp Records, though I haven’t found any indication of this EDM producer being associated with that record label yet. Sorry, I know that my description of the music track totally sucks. Hoping that maybe the description of the video is more helpful. Anyways, I just wanted to throw this question out there in case anyone remembers something about this. Thanks!

Trying to find a video!

Back in the day watching Joe Cartoon there was a video I swear was made by him. It was a blue dogs trip to the vet, he walks into a room with jars of balls. After he is nurtured he says “BALLZ” I watched this as a kid and laughed my ass off at it but cant seem to find it now.. does anyone remember this video?

kuyang dayak - old viral video supposed to show a cursed person (?). Most likely modeled after Kuyang, a spirit from Southern Asian folklore which takes form a floating head with internal organs attached to it.
