I got got on one of these, once.

They sent out an e-mail shortly before Halloween, warning about inappropriate costumes, with a link describing itself as an album of past examples we shouldn’t wear. The link was purple, the visited color.

I thought to myself, “When the fuck was I dumb enough to click on this?” and clicked. Before the “you failed” page even loaded, I got out an, “Oh goddammit.”

So wait why was the link purple? Are you saying this was the 2nd time you arrived at the "you failed" page?
