Slashdot was ripe with memes. One of the more sinister ones was posting a comment link to something mundane looking, but it was actually a link to a .cx shock site containing "goat" in the domain name. Later it evolved into Rick Rolling, but the goat thing predated that by long.
I think the prank / meme became so widespread that at some point they changed the site code to spell out the linked domain name in text after the <a>.
