Pictures, art, logos, etc, that took you a long time to interpret correctly

The question that had to be polled.
Magic Eye pictures - can you see them or not?

the animated version of that one is really cool

It's like staring at a belt sander.

or a river of vomit

wau @ that animated shark. can hardly tell what i'm looking at, but it's trippy as hell. flickering canyons.

a belt sander or vom river with weird windows into other realms

Right now I can hear the screeching of cats mating outside, which is an oddly appropriate soundtrack.

looks like rolling over an 8-bit desert

*barf*

you guys really can't see the swimming shark? he only wants to say hai to u.

swimmin along there, back and forth for all eternitys

xxxp isn't this what happens when a NES crashes?

I saw a real hammerhead shark at the aquarium on the weekend so magic eye shark can suck it

a cool thing to do with magic eyes, instead of staring off beyond the plane, is to fix your vision just short of it (i.e., looking at it sort of "crosseyed"). then you get a weird inversion of the image. instead of a happy lil bubblegum vomit shark swimming along above a bubblegum vomit river, it's a twitching, shark-shaped hole in the river's surface. trippy!

Ok, this thread, how do you not notice a desiccating lion corpse being consumed by flies??? It's right in the middle! It's kind of eye-catching imo because it's a DEAD FUCKIN LION.

the container is smallish, the decoration on the tin is kind of ornate, and...LOOOK I'M SORRY I'M JUST NOT ALWAYS THAT OBSERVANT

xxp I'm English and we see this image so much that it's kind of like a non-image by the time we're six or seven years old. Kind of like how I imagine American kids see Ronald McDonald and think 'that's Ronald McDonald' and not 'urgh creepy clown dude'.

if he were a creepy clown corpse who was being consumed by flies (actually bees), then I think this would be a different story

abbott's post about the brains is killing me btw

It made the Unabomber SO MUCH SCARIER. I thought, how come no one has caught this man? Just look for the man with the terrifying exposed brains.

They could put Ronald McDonald corpse honey on the McFlurries.

I'm probably the wrong U.S.er to talk about Ronald, who has always given me the weirds. I remember at age seven being at a 4th of July parade and when the float with Ronald came by, hearing the other kids cry out his name. "Ronald! Ronald!" not in fear. It was the first time being in a crowd and thinking, what is wrong with all these people? Am I the only sane one here?

Abbs between Ronald and Unabomber here you are on fire! :D

re batman logo, the halloween special covers are great for this:

I don't get where the "KKK" in a Marlboro pack is supposed to be, can someone explain?

they're referring to the red & white wedge/triangle design element, which occurs 3 times on the pack

I always see this chap as a bloodhound with circular ears.

maybe not circular ears then. but definitely as a hound of the basset/blood type. it looks fuck-all like a speed camera.

It looks like a one-eyed man with his mouth open waving at you

one eyed man mouth open who takes off his hat to say hi is what i see.

BTE.

The hat

http://media.masslive.com/living_impact/photo/012911-curtis-comic-strip-partialjpg-f13147e5c59eab1e.jpg

Isn't it a trucker hat on backwards?

Yeah, I think so. It's just so far back on his head and so strangely depicted though

It's esp. confusing in the b/w strips, but I had trouble finding one via cursory gis

I think Billingsley's made the crown too narrow and the back too flat compared to the height of the crown and the length of the bill and also compared to Curtis' head's size.

He read the ILX trucker hat thread, but has never actually seen one in real life

dudes he has a fan blade stuck in his head

It looks like a fucked-up shoe or something

it also maintains the same profile when he turns his head!

Maybe it's a shoe stuck on a pole sticking out of his backpack?

Woudl at least explain why he's getting bullied. "Hey you! Shoe-pole-backpack boy! What ya doin' with that shoe on a pole sticking out of your backpack?"
