The only value in filthy, disgusting, violent, or obscene materials in the media (television shows, movies, online forums, etc.). Ironically, these things have become so common that even the shock value is gone, leaving their existence pointless and the masses desensitised (or disgusted).

Coined and popularized by renowned Cracked Editor David Wong, this term is a derivative of the term sticker shock. It refers to the feeling of shock and dismay one encounters when discovering how difficult it really is to accomplish a goal. The term is usually used to refer to long term goals, such as getting a degree, acquiring a job in a desired profession, learning a new skill (guitar, a foreign language, etc.), or completing a long term project (remodeling, losing weight, etc.).
While many people of varying levels of intelligence and backgrounds can encounter Effort Shock, it is believed to mainly afflict people in first world, Westernized societies. This is likely due to a variety of factors: parental upbringing, popular cultural influences, the overwhelming choice of professions in Westernized society, and lack of education about one’s desired goal.
While they often initially feel extremely excited, motivated, and prepared, realizing the daunting magnitude, difficulty, and level of effort to achieve the goal leaves the victims of Effort Shock feeling disheartened and lacking motivation. This can lead to the person quitting their goal entirely.

After being told how smart and "destined for great things" he was for the duration of his childhood and teen years, Jimmy encountered Effort Shock when he graduated and realized that smarts alone couldn't get him even a mediocre job.
I experienced Effort Shock when I tried to learn a foreign language after high school, because I underestimated and lacked the motivation and commitment needed to gain any conversational proficiency.

A shock site is a website that is intended to be offensive or disturbing to its viewers, containing materials of high shock value which is also considered distasteful and crude, and is generally of a pornographic, scatological, or extremely violent nature. Some shock sites display a single picture, animation, or video clip, or a small gallery, and are often passed around via email or disguised in posts to discussion sites as a hoax in an attempt to trick readers into following the link to the website. Other shock sites are merely websites that openly display shocking material. Famous examples include: goatse.cx, lemonparty.org, lolshock.com and hai2u.com.

You have a cheek splitting double chocolate warhead in it's third trimester. You go into the bathroom, and no one is there. You see the stall door, and everything appears to be normal from the outside. However you know from fearful past experiences this is rarley the case. As you reach to open the stall door, something inside you tells you something is wrong. Your body activates a saftey mechanism, protecting you from what might be. You open the door, and as you feared, it's the worst thing you have ever seen in your life. The first stall you open, theres piss all over the seat. The second stall you open, its an unflushed mix of sinkers and floaters, as well as the squirts.
Then the third...
The prior occupant laced out a massive pinch, he was probably going for a record breaker, he tried to keep it in one piece, but he got pissed when it started to break up, so he left the rest right on the seat. It was also unwipable, at which point the occupant got frustrated, the toilet was flooded with tea color water and was spilling over the sides. The floor was covered with piss, and then they smeared shit all over the walls.
