*''[[Blue Waffle]]'' - An image of a diseased vagina. Blue Waffle was originally started as a rumor from various online sources, claiming it to be a real STD disease that could disfigure someone's vagina and turn blue, but it has since been debunked.

*''[[Spritecranberry.net]]'' - | *''[[Spritecranberry.net]]'' - a site that purports to lure unsuspecting users who were looking for Sprite Cranberry, created during which Sprite Cranberry became an internet meme. The site was a redirect to a [[YouTube]] video of a veterinarian inserting his finger inside a dog's anus to "express anal glands". The site has become popular as a [[shock site]] and also as an internet meme. The instances of the site have been changed throughout the years, such as sometime in 2019, when it changed into a line of text stating that the site was of an "online social experiment conducted by James Woods Regional High School" and a research study which is complete is said to have been found at the site Spriteharder.com; that leads to a YouTube video of a man pulling off his dead toenail. |
