I did a google search for shadowrun and found this old article.

I started reading it, but my eyes quickly started to strain while attempting to read this block of miniscule text about 3 miles wide and about 1000 lines deep.

The article does not interest me, but i found the optical illusion it creates after reading it, and as a loyal dumpshocker, I will share it with you all.

HOW TO GET THIS ILLUSION:
1. go to http://www.blackjack-adviser.com/bj71.htm

2. Read as much as u can, (as much as your eyes can handle)

3. Go to the Google homepage or any other page with basically a white screen.

ugh. i don't think that's so much an optical illusion as a deeply-rooted psychological abberation caused by tiny words stabbing me in my eyes.

What's up with the article?

I read through it all, it just seemed to be some rant against Canon rules. No illusion.

Actually if you want to really hurt yourself, do try to stay awake when reading any doctoral treatise in font 8 (word or pdf).

Wow... if you click on any line of text it moves!

As to the illusion: I didn't see it... then again, I never see those silly little things anyway.

It's not that bad when you're reading it. It's afterwords, when everything is covered in dark lines. Then life sucks.

It really wasn't that painful to read... the lines afterwards are annoying, sure, but not that bad.

The highlighted text, now that's painful.
