 		Peculiar Email
I got this email yesterday. It seems odd enough to have to do with a Slender series, although if I remember correctly, 'He comes' has to do with Zalgo? I thought I'd post it here in case it is something to do with a Slender series and maybe someone else got the same email, or anything similar. Sorry if this is inappropriate, or turns out to be nothing!

Edit: It doesn't seem to turn out in the preview, or whatever you would call it. Full view the picture to see it!

 		Okay, that was blinding.

I do think that's Zalgo text, though, as well as the "He comes" part. I have no idea what the thing in the corner is, though...

Any clues in the email address?

 		I'm sorry. I can't take something named Zalgo seriously.

The lines in the corner look like they were made in Paint.

 		It looks like something a little girl would hang in her room. ALL THAT PINK....

Buuuuut yeah, it's totally Zalgo.

 		I can't see it, when I click on it only that red x box icon comes. You know the one. If it isn't really long could someone transcribe it for me? If not, I understand.

...What/who's Zalgo?

And why am I so naive?

I am sorry for the link, but it's a quick description of it - http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Zalgo

(fixed the link.)

Thanks for the link - it was pretty helpful. But I still have one question: is Zalgo one entity, like Slender Man, or is he a concept that several monsters can fit?

 		Need to check my e-mail again. Could swear I got that same picture, or something fairly close to it, a few days ago. That's fucking bizarre.

EDIT: Yeah. That's really fucked up. I got the same picture, only in my preview box, all the text is white. I don't know what's up with that.

 		I'm more creeped out by the fact that the preview picture is almost completely black, but the full image itself is green with a gradient black circle in the center.

Also, how come I never get neat stuff like this? Crying or Very sad

Nah, if they were made in paint they would be a LOT more pixelized.

This is weird though O_O
I thought zalgo was something entirely different from slenderman...but I dunno.

@ TRW: green? The fullview I see is..pinkish/redish with screwed up black text in the middle

...okay, that's weird. The preview pane is jet-black with really dark green letters (looks kinda Matrix-y, but I have to look at it at an angle to see them) while the full picture is sea-green with black letters and those weird lines on the bottom right being grey. Strangely enough, the rock-looking thing in the corner looks the same in both.

I know my color settings are fine; this is my primary monitor, and I'd have noticed if all my games had suddenly gone goofy.

 		Huh, I got the same image in my inbox a few days ago, but I deleted it.

Is there some way for people to get the Unfiction member's emails?
