It was courteous of tosh to submit the source. For those who dare, the link is https://theannoyingsite.com.

Just a warning: this will make your machine unusable by opening a bunch of pop-ups, download images, and playing annoying audio while flashing the screen.

It's wonderful to see that humanity has so many different definitions of 'sane'. Heterogeneity is beautiful; it makes browsing the internet like walking through a tropical jungle.

It sounds like a SFW version of the old shock-sites like GNAA NIMP/LastMeasure, which would basically do the same but the content was far more NSFW.

(For... suitably small values of SFW?)
