Absolutely nothing whatsoever is "bad". It was a joke attempting to key in
the eye to the similarity between the stalk's head/neck and the head/neck of
a penis. Maybe this could be the first ASCII art dual perception picture -
you know, ugly old woman or pretty old woman...

Well, I think Normand Veilleux probably beat you, too.  I think he
did this back in 96 or so.  (I have attempted to attach this, but
I'm on a pc instead of my workstation, so I can't be sure it will
work.)
