Much, much better than most websites today, IMO.

This is a perfect example of the "neocities" movement - a modern revival of the 90s/early 2000s web aesthetic that explicitly rejects the homogenized, corporate design patterns that dominate today's internet.

“There used to be an end to the page!”

I thought it was likely to be like the onion sales story.

Yeah, it's not about Melon Usk.

I thought it was about something like spelunking but you just explore yourself. Basically just the 21st century.

Oh I guess it is supposed to be Melon-King, but I firmly read it as Melonk-ing at first. What could it mean to melonk?

Mellon is Sindarin for "friend", so maybe mellonking is exploring one's friends?

What's wrong with exploring oneself? Obviously not too much nor wrongly in public and never to excess, but if the modern spelunking is just urbex - which it is, in my view, and much more appealing than any dank smelly old cave - then, though I won't repeat the hideous portmanteau, I don't suppose I see too much of a problem with this practice, either.

After all - γνῶθι σεαυτόν, wasn't that the phrase? No accident at all we find it incised over the gateway to an oracle. You might want to think about that, who has just finished reading this now.

Ascribe a meaning to it, make it a viral meme, and the meaning will stick.

Words like "quiz" and "blog" came to existence this way.
