  That’s not the only thing they did to that dolphin. A crazy 2 years of hand jobs and LSD and then nothing. Poor dolphin couldn’t handle being cut off and killed himself.

    Never knew about that story, but I do have a somewhat tangential one about dolphin handjobs.

    Teenage me and my friend are out back in the woods smoking weed out of a can or pringles bong or some other stupid contraption a 16/17 year old would assemble. A thought occurred to me, and it didn’t seem strange at the time to me. After a bit of quietness sitting around getting baked in the woods, I broke the silence with:

    “Ever been to dolphinsex.org?”

    My friend about pissed himself laughing, guess that URL was not an expected topic of discussion. This was peak early internet, find weird sites and discuss with your friends era for me. This question became a bit of a meme amongst our group.

    Anyways, bless archive.org, looks like the website went defunct around 2005. You can still check it out, not really NSFW unless someone is reading over your shoulder. Web 1.0 was a crazy place to be as a teenager.

    Well… I think it was more that he was in a small dark tank with nothing to do for 2 years straight. Which is a human rights violation at least.

  The dolphin probably liked the handjobs more than the LSD.
