They're still used in cinemas, arcades, busses, or anywhere where you don't want people to notice how many vomit stains are in the floor. Wetherspoon's supposedly have a unique custom designed crazy carpet for every venue.

There seemed to be a year or two in time when the Venn diagram of "public entertainment complex carpets" and "MS Windows 3.1 backgrounds" converged to a single circle before moving apart again.

That was peak hopes and dreams.

Yep and sticky!
