a nude photograph or video which is publicly shared online (most frequently by an ex-lover of the subject's) for the purpose of spiteful humiliation and/or the lulz.
While revenge porn has existed as long as the intarwebz itself, in early 2011 a rapidly-growing website called is anyone up appeared, providing a prominent and heavily viewed destination for those who seek such vengeance (or simply wish to view the results, or fap to them). The key element of this site is that it not only offers a place for revenge porn, but also links to the subjects' Facebook pages, thus increasing the lulz and/or humiliation factor exponentially.
As modern culture becomes more deeply immersed in digital technology, and as desperately horny homo sapiens continue to send each other home made fap material, rapid growth of the revenge porn industry seems all but inevitable. Additionally, from a legal standpoint (at least at the time of this writing), revenge porn is also virtually *unstoppable*, due to a legal loophole protecting the owner of any such website from criminal prosecution (see Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996).
This author's advice to all users of social media who have any concern for the confidentiality of their n00dz is, either don't share your pics with anyone or prepare your anus.

Get the revenge porn mug.An old, widely used phrase expressing the sentiment that revenge that is delayed, and executed well after the heat of anger has dissipated, is more satisfying than revenge taken as an immediate act of rage.
It has been frequently been claimed on the Internet to have originated in the novel "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos. In truth, however, there are two problems with the widely circulated quotation from that book. The first is that the phrase does not appear in the novel, or anything else that de Lacois wrote. The second problem is that the French quotation used as proof is linguistically erroneous; de Lacois would never have written the words attributed to him. Thus it bears all the hallmarks of an Internet "fact" for which someone invented an authentication that seemed plausible, knowing that it would rarely be verified.
The phrase has been in use since at least the 19th century, and at least one author's use of it back then expressed to the reader that it was an already existing dictum.
Of course, how long ago it came into being in the Klingon Empire would be an interesting subject for xenolinguistic research.

Get the revenge-shit mug.The most expensive car in the whole history of Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. Only 20 were manufactured, all of which have already been sold. Yet, there have been reports that the number will increase to 100.
Reventón means "explosion", "burst", but in this context it means "he who makes things burst".
The exterior design was inspired by the F22 Raptor. The interior is fully customized and includes several devices a normal Lamborghini wouldn't have. The mechanical elements, such as the engine, is exactly the same as the Murciélago LP640.
The most ridiculous fact is that is costs one million euro.
