This has been making the rounds for the years and I think what captivates me the most is the art style. There is something about it I cannot put my finger on. Just like the art style of Moebius or the 90's game Flashback.
Thats fun. I like it. Try clicking on naruto :) <a href="https://floor796.com/#t2l4,780,732" rel="nofollow">https://floor796.com/#t2l4,780,732</a>

So fun! Are there any other easter eggs like this? I've been clicking everywhere and didn't find any

The Jaws one is fun too, only reason I found it is because it says click beneath it, <a href="https://floor796.com/#b3l3,84,789" rel="nofollow">https://floor796.com/#b3l3,84,789</a>

This reminds me a lot of the 2000s internet that I grew up on. This was the kind of thing I used to find using StumbleUpon.
Would be interesting to give all the NPC AI, then control one and see how everything interacts, or get dropped into this in first person and interact with everything/everyone powered by AI.
The entire page was amazing, but holy shit that art in the middle that shows how the current system works where kids are sent to school to study and then they graduate, get crushed into becoming mere tools instead of the human beings we are meant to be.
Is it just me or is the phrase "human beings" used more often than simply "humans"? I've just started to notice this: the next word after "human" is very often "beings". Whenever someone wants to emphasize our humanity (as opposed, say, to a horse's horseness), they almost always say "human _beings_" instead of "humans". Somehow "human beings" seems to emphasize the "human spirit/soul".
Yes. There are lots around; whenever the original word becomes too short for the importance people want to give it.<p>Tuna fish, chai tea, Enter the room -> enter “into” the room, French: hui (today) -> aujourd’hui (day of today)<p>Keyword: pleonasm
I think it is “Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall” reference.<p>edit: Ha! Actually one can double-click on objects and get more info about their origin.
OMG... stunning maximalism
Not often you see Lexx references: <a href="https://floor796.com/#t0l2,597,381" rel="nofollow">https://floor796.com/#t0l2,597,381</a>
Thanks for sharing this one. There's so many brilliant and funny little vignettes in this piece. I'm amazed at what some people are able to do, so far outside anything I could dream about creating.
I think it will absorb at least as many hours as doom scrolling, and be much better for me.
sites like this make the internet a better place.
So cool. Nice to see Walt and Jesse cooking
I wish I could show my kid this incredible mega gif. But it's NSFW ;D
This is incredible!<p>I bet there's Waldo hidden somewhere... good luck!

there's even a HN img reference
Nice, this just crashed my entire desktop.
What did I just click on? Love the no context drop in with 37 points and no comments.<p>That being said whatever this is… something
