It's just such a perfect example of the most massively overwhelming and painful webpage ever. Am I the only one who feels that way?

No, I don't find it overwhelming.

It is HORRIBLE! The picture is not that great, the movement isn't either. And the NOISE!?!? YIKES!

Popping the balloons, and what happens AFTER that is NICE though, and well done.

That non fully popped sequence cheapens it.

I got stuck clicking on the explosions...

I agree that it's ugly but flashing things sort of grab my attention.

Actually, I don't think it's ugly; it has its charm. It's just so over-the-top that my senses can't take it.

I have video games with similar effects that I wish I could play more, but whenever I try I get overstimulated.

But at the same time it's kind of stimming to just play them, I just don't stop when I probably should.

Er, no thanks. I spotted the file type ".swf" and knew what I'd be likely to see.
Far too many web pages just demonstrate the triumph of noise over content.
