I-Mockery is a pop culture/digital humor[2] site owned and operated by Roger Barr (aka: -RoG-) that has existed online in various forms since 1996. Before then, it was a printed periodical called Visionary Darkness. Free copies of Visionary Darkness were distributed in local high schools and record shops. It later became a web site on Geocities which housed a variety of humorous articles and rants. Barr also registered other sites on GeoCities under several aliases and made them all a part of the Visionary Darkness web site.
After a few years of building up the popularity of these sites, Barr registered the I-Mockery.com domain name in August 1999 to house all of his humor sites under the same roof and the website was officially launched on September 1, 1999.[1] The I-Mockery name was created as a spoof of all the corporate web sites that started with "I" or "E" at the time. The name loosely translates to Internet-Mockery.[citation needed]
In addition to The Human Centipede,[3] they are also the creator of Abobo's Big Adventure and a game version of Cyanide and Happiness.[4][5]
