An animated optical pattern that induces visual distortions familiar to LSD users. Not that I would know anything about that.
And no, it isn't what's known as a "flash screamer," i.e., something that bids you to pay close attention to the screen and then suddenly switches to a snarling demon.
Maybe it was funny the first time someone did it, but it's now just irritating and juvenile. Also, I got stung by another one yesterday.
But even if it's irritating and juvenile, it's still funny to watch other people get hit. Warning: Music in first link; banners maybe NSFW in second; sounds.

I miss the 70s.
By that I mean, that's when I used to jump out and scare people. I think I was compensating for my shyness. The comment had nothing to do with the first video. Really.

I stopped scaring people when, alas, "Rocco" moved away. I'm still waiting for one of those "flashbacks."
Of me scaring people, that is.
