Seeing Faces in Almost Everything

elucid January 14, 2021 at 22:44 1925 views 5 comments
Hi everyone,

I just wanted to share something. It's about faces, such as human faces, and animal faces. I see faces in almost everything. I am also aware what Pareidolia is. The faces in things are very artistic. There are large ones, and small ones. They can also sometimes seem to animate.

Let me know your comments.

Thank you.

It is worth drawing them. I can see them in carpets and wallpaper designs. I once ate a packet of morning glory seeds a long time ago and I could see the most extraordinary faces on the door, so I sat and sketched them

But I don't recommend eating morning glory seeds. They contain a chemical resembling Lsd.
This means that a lot of people experiment with them for their psychedelic benefits. As a result, they are usually coated in poison and I did have bad stomach ache after using them.

Hey Jack,

I took a picture of my wall, and tried my best to highlight the faces I see in it.

But you didn't see any genitalia? Sorry, guy, but your missing out on the benefits of pareidolia.

I have actually, it was a male genitalia. It was a boy laying down with both his hands behind his head, and his penis erect.
