I'm not high, and I can't see anything but a lake.

Edit: wait, is it a wall?

the quality is so bad it could have been anything

Yeah it's a wall. I see a lake and then I saw a field covered in fog with a sign barely visible.

Spoiler: It's a fence in need of a power wash. The giveaway is the fact that the "shadows" on the "lake" don't match the source. Hold the photo upsidedown to get your brain to snap out of it. Afterwards you can't unsee it.

Thanks, I think you saved me like 15 minutes of looking at this frustrated.

I've watched too much Bob Ross. As long as there's some blurred lines where the reflection should be, my brain goes "you son of a bitch, I'm in"

Yeah me too but what about the monkey?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh thank god I’m not the only one seeing a monkey

a sea monkey?

Even knowing it's a wall my brain keeps wanting to see a lake

That's an odd looking zoo... What's to stop the monkey from just climbing up the tree and over the wall?

Optical illusion is when someone steals my glasses.

I wasn’t even high and I thought it was a wall
