(EDIT2: Looking at the discussion here, I am now reminded that it is not just potentially toxic due to decision theoretic oddities, but actually already known to be severely psychologically toxic to at least some people. This, of course, changes things significantly, and I am retracting my "being bugged" by the removal.)

Yeah, that was the reason that convinced me its removal from here was a good enough idea to bother enacting. I wouldn't try removing it from the net, but due warning is appropriate. Such things attract curious monkeys to test the wet paint - but! I still haven't seen 2 Girls 1 Cup and have no plans to! So it's not assured.
