Sonic 1: WTF LAME is a 2009 fan-made joke hack of the original Sonic the Hedgehog game for the Sega Genesis. The game plays like the original, but there are special WTF LAME monitors added to each level.

WTF LAME Monitors

A WTF LAME monitor in Green Hill Zone.

Activating a WTF LAME monitor will cause the level to fade out, and then the screen will be filled with a scrolling tl;dr rant that you cannot escape. The scrolling text is achieved by writing character data to the scroll plane every 8 scanlines, resulting in a smooth scroll. (For full details on how this works, see wtflame.asm in the source code archive.)
