• "Yob" was released in November 1997 as the album's lead single. This song details the "ingredients" which go into making up a "yobbo".
• "I Might Be a Cunt, but I'm Not a Fucking Cunt" was released in April 1998 as the album's second single. The song peaked at number 90 on the ARIA charts.^[4] The song and its accompanying music video of a couple having sex was banned by the SBS, ABC's rage, and Triple J due to its content; however, it was played quite frequently by Melbourne independent broadcaster 3RRR on the Breakfasters show. Bruce Ruxton, the head of the Victorian Branch of the Australian RSL, wrote a letter of complaint to Shock Records asking for TISM to be fired from the label, and describing the song as "...Dropping [Australia's standards] through the floor into the proverbial sewer". Ron Hitler Barassi of TISM responded to criticism in an interview saying "I actually like the song, the thing that disappoints me about some of the reaction to the song is people's reaction was confined to 'oh how naughty, oh those naughty boys TISM have said a naughty word, fuck, and another naughty word, cunt, and oh that's so naughty' and I must admit, I was sort of, and I shouldn't have, I was disappointed with that reaction ... We were attempting to use the common dialect of people in the street, to sum up a term, have a good pisstake. It's more than just naughtiness. That's very profound isn't it?"^[5]
• "Whatareya?" was released in July 1998 as the album's third single. The song peaked at number 66 on the ARIA charts.^[4]
• "Thunderbirds Are Coming Out" was released in October 1998 as the fourth and final single from the album.

Jonathan Lewis from AllMusic said "www.tism.wanker.com was a misbegotten attempt to recreate the success of its predecessor, but it fails on most counts. Machiavelli was a funny album: tasteless, yet tongue-in-cheek enough to charm listeners. www.tism.wanker.com, however, was simply offensive. The humour was forced, the lyrics less clever than on previous outings and the music was becoming stale." Lewis said "Highlights were few and far between, although 'Thunderbirds Are Coming Out' was a standout."^[6] In July 1998 issue of Beat Magazine, Bronius Zumerius in is 7/10 review of the album, said the dance element explored in their previous album Machiavelli and the Four Seasons continues as the band "grasp at current dance trends with some precision", along with the social commentary of tracks like Whatareya?, Denial Works for Me and There's Gonna Be Sex Tonite, mingling with the tongue in cheek tracks like Been Caught Wankin', Yob and I Might Be A Cunt, But I'm Not A Fucking Cunt, "with fist in the air, lunatic dancing, screaming, lung bursting effect." He concludes the review of the album saying it's "not their most exemplary material, but enough chortles are to be had to validate its existence."^[8]

Initial pressings of the album were shipped with a bonus disc. The CD in question looks like a blank CDR, with texta writing that reads "Att: SHOCK RECORDS FAULTY PRESSING DO NOT MANUFACTURE"; thinking it was serious, some retail chains actually returned boxes of the "fake" CDs unopened.^[9] In reality, it featured six outtakes from the wanker.com sessions and several poems, bookended by low-quality audio recordings of Hitler-Barassi and Flaubert discussing various topics whilst watching a pornographic film.

The "conversation" tracks have never been given an official title. For the iTunes re-release, these tracks were appended to the start/end of the titled tracks. The titles were available on TISM's website at the time.^[10]

"The Last Australian Guitar Hero", "Kate - Fischer of Men" and "I'd Be Happier if I Wasn't More Depressed" were released as B-sides to singles.

On 29 April 2023, the conversation tracks were released for free on the group's Bandcamp page.^[11]
