Pornhub Offers To Buy Vine As 'Six Seconds Is All You Need'

After the end of Vine was announced yesterday, there's been an outpouring of grief from every corner of the internet. Including us.

A large part of that thing called the world wide web is dominated by porn, and what kind of massive news story would it be if Pornhub didn't wade in?!

Corey Price, vice president of the .com of masturbation, reached out to Twitter's CEO, Jack Dorsey, in a desperate attempt to get some free publicity save the video platform.

According to CNET, he wrote: "We figure since Twitter has dropped (Vine) and is having significant layoffs, that you and your stakeholders could benefit from a cash infusion from the sale of Vine. Not to mention we would be saving Vine gems like 'Damn Daniel', 'Awkward Puppets' and many more."

He also reportedly added that Pornhub would 'restore Vine to its NSFW glory' and that clips 'of porn in six seconds is more than enough time for most people to enjoy themselves'.

Well, in my personal experience, six seconds might even be a bit generous for some lads.

The cuts have come after Twitter revealed it was axing nine percent of its workforce - which is around 350 people. The loss of Vine was a result of the company's restructure.

In a statement, Twitter said: "We intend to fully invest in our highest priorities and are de-prioritizing certain initiatives."

But back to the original point, six seconds? Is that or is that not a challenge?
