- “My nephew is half dog, half boy.”
His body’s somewhere in there… we think? - “I got that dog in me.”
Literally. This shadow illusion is wild. - “Side view of the Pepsi-Cola sign at night in Queens, NYC.”
Suddenly abstract art? Nope, just a sideways glance. - “My friend posted a new profile pic with her boyfriend—everyone did a double take.”
Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. - “This snow angel looks like it’s crawling out of the snow.”

That perspective makes him look like he’s levitating. - “Thought I saw a plane crash—turns out, just perspective.”
Heart stopped for a second there. - “Let me just set this tool down… right into the void.”
Disappearing act, handyman edition. - “Dad thought the circle on the tablecloth was a plate.”

Your brain saw a figure. It’s not alone. - “Found this old pic of me and my girlfriend. Where’s her foot?”
Vanished like it’s part of a magician’s act. - “My friend’s dog looks like it has three hands.”
Creepy or just cuddly? You decide. - “My dad in green pants looks twice as tall as the guy next to him.”
