Talk:Normal Porn for Normal People/@comment-991426-20151209211450

Story hasn't aged well, but it is still pretty neat. The fact that it is possible to find some weird stuff online does give a (small) air of believably to the whole thing, but, like I said, it reeks of one of the "internet horror stories" (the kind your grandma forwards you from chain emails) from the mid-2000's (would that make it dated to start with, too?). Back in the day, this would be considerably more frightening given the average person's lack of knowledge on computers and how the internet worked since this seems like something that really could happen to someone who's very uninformed.

Outside of some really obscure corners of, like, a Russian porn site with 4000 proxies worth of secrecy to hide behind, nothing like this would likely exist today, which sort of ruins it for modern readers. All in all, despite its historical significance as a creepypasta, it doesn't really hold up. 5.5/10, mostly because the picture of the ape is spoopy.
