in reply to "Secret" operators

So why is it called the Goatse operator?

($$<<$$=>$$<=>$$<=$$>>$$) always returns 1. :-)

If you don't already know, then you really don't want to know. I really, really, really wish that I didn't know.	[reply]

Does it have something to do with that certain picture on that certain website... oh. Never mind. Ted Young `($$<<$$=>$$<=>$$<=$$>>$$) always returns 1. :-)`	[reply] [d/l]

Do tell, do tell :-) I know what it does, but I have no idea why it's named "goatse" (the eskimo thing is trivial, but this one doesn't seem to be). I heard it had been named after another operator... but in that case, which operator is that, and how come the name?	[reply]

Once upon a time there was a site called http://goatse.cx/, but it "has been suspended by the registry." However, the original content is still available at http://goat.cx/. Don't follow this link if you don't like stretched anus. More information at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goatse.cx, and some relevant IRC quotes at http://bash.org/?search=goatse&sort=0&show=25.
