oo

I'm not sure if this belongs here, but I doubt this thread will last long anyway.

If anyone remembers blinkerfluid.com (just me? alright), how about giving me some idea as to what the hell this is supposed to be about? It was just one of those stupid random sites you'd see on blinkerfluid, and I'm probably trying too hard to understand something that has no reason behind it, but I've always wondered.

Alright, so most of the pages contain simple jokes or a Visual Pun related to two O's in a row, but what about the others- like "The Asphyxiation" (I can't breathe)? Is there a deeper meaning here that I'm just not getting?

Oh, and this site started in 1995, and hasn't been updated in a long time. I have yet to email the admin, but something tells me s/he wouldn't answer.

...That shit is just... creepy.

I feel like this is supposed to be some abstract story with a deep meaning that no one is supposed to be able to comprehend except the author[s].

This scares me, because it's sick, and sick in a way I immediately recognize. This person thinks with just the same half-logic that I do when I'm at my most unhinged; every single one of these I comprehended immediately (The Asphyxiation: windpipe, nostrils, mouth). It's like knight's move thinking in reverse: every topic imaginable is railroaded back into this central, all-consuming Idea.

A sane man couldn't write this if he tried.

Am I crazy for getting some of them and finding it hilarious?

...it seems rather boring to me.

Clicking the first few, I chuckled a bit, and decided to keep going.

By the bottom of the first column, it gets terrifying. I don't understand why, but this is the scariest thing I've seen in a while.

The parent site is still active: last updated 2 days ago. You could try emailing the owner.

It's cute 'n all, but what's the point?

And there's some generic creepypasta stuff. Whee.

Because, the place is almost barren. As in, there's no information, no "this page is for this and that", and the lack of any features besides the basic HTML are pretty much Nothing Is Scarier in a nutshell. Then, you see how old it is...

Oooooh, HTML from '95, imma go wet myself.

It's not that. I mean, it's the lack of features that give it an eerie feeling, like walking at night in an old house, or a deserted street. I keep expecting some Jump Scare to pop out at any moment.

It gets worse.

I'm scared now.

I think this "oo" has a vague plot going on, actually. However, after this sequence here, it degenerates into visual and verbal puns about "oo".

I was just about to post that.

Now that you mention it, I could see this being the centerpiece for creepypasta (don't worry, I won't do it).

Edit: Holy SHIT. I've never read them in horizontal order before! It's a story...kinda. And, just as I've always suspected, it seems to be about testicular damage. Look at "The Lesson" and "The Misspelling," for example.

And oo kinda looks like a pair of... well...

What's up with The Flavor, though?

I think I understand "The Asphyxiation" now...

That also answers The Location. And The Mission.

What if this is all just a really old ARG that never caught on?

This must be a bit of a contradiction, then.

Probably something like that considering how it seemed to have a plot of sorts and then devolved to visual puns and such.

That's a pretty nutty theory. You've gotta hand it to the webmaster, though. It really took some cojones to post all that stuff on the internet. Now if you don't mind, I've gotta hit the sack.

Pun... overload...

Probably, yes.
