Almost forgot to share this oversized link! That would have been a catastrophe.

EDIT: Thank goodness almost no one visits this site nowadays, it gives me a lot of time to edit my writings. Just play the game and ignore the rest, okay?

Oh boys, I definitely must click this yet another oversized link to see what kind of garbage Jani has made this time
