\\\"The SCP Foundation website uses a \\\"Langford-Berryman Memetic Kill Agent\\\" to trigger a fatal neurally-induced heart attack into any \\\"un-innoculated\\\" personnel trying to view the SCP-001 entry. [[http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/proposals-for-scp-001 Try your luck here]].\\\"

This achieves its {{BrownNote}} effect primarily as a {{CatScare}}, because of the way you have to scroll through the page before being suddenly confronted with it. And possibly because the red color is interpreted by our subconscious mind as \\\"blood/violence/death\\\", and the circular area in the top center could be interpreted as a face, in that split-second of surprise before we see it with full consciousness. Just looking at it on its own, it\\\'s rather pretty and not at all heart attack inducing, at least in this Troper\\\'s opinion.
