What about train station graffiti? Or Wikipedia discussion pages? Or the linux mailing list?

You have really opened a can of worms we here.

Train Station Graffiti - Ghouls & Goblins, the original hard mode, get hit once and you're done for, a true work of art (at the time)

Wikipedia Discussion Pages - Blasphemous, ancient and unknown beings wield extreme power over the common populace, theres a lot of blood and religion

Linux Mailing List - Salt and Sanctuary, an imaginary amalgamation of the real world, most people who end up here are castaways, the one with the most salt rules
