I almost see something... dirty happening there. Is that what I'm supposed to see, or is this a test?

file name should tell you what you are looking for.

It's divergent, not crossed; you want to look *through* the image, not in *front* of it.

This is helping :'( I've never been able to do these. I can see something that looks like both a dancer, a bunch of AAAAAAAA's and some sort of fish that is stuttering on the screen for half a second or so. Are there any more specific guides on how to twist your eyes or whatever? :S

Ah. I saw a glimpse of

Spoiler

a clown or midget having sex with something, or perhaps wanking

. Sometimes you see what you want to see I suppose.

I've never been able to see these things either, but I sat my laptop on my lap while sitting on my couch, looked to my left at the floor and started slowly moving my field of vision to the right. When it crossed over the image, I saw it. Just look past your screen; pretend you have x-ray vision and you can see through your screen.

Cool thread. I feel enlightened.

Also Bish, at least your team is in the playoffs, man. ( and whipping ass too)

I had never seen that GIF until now. Seriously laughed my ass off!

 

[methane47]

No! It wouldn't terminate at all. You'd approximate stepwise maybe, and your intermediate answers would terminate in a seven, but as you approximate further, you get very close to 2/3, which, as it turns out, doesn't terminate in a seven, but instead doesn't ever terminate. It is a very long number. Written out, it takes infinite space and neither terminates in a 6 nor a 7.

So you're saying Arithmetic doesn't apply to repeating decimal numbers?

Is there a mill on Arkham?

Actually, it works both ways, with the exception of concave and convex image result.

Better to practice on a regular image, instead of a moving gif.

P.S. no, of course I don't chew with my mouth open. That shit is disgusting.
I actually don't care how people use utensils, but I bet chewing with mouth open is equally proportional to their filthy living habits.

Everyone probably knows this, but the (old) Big 10 logo has and "11" hidden in the negative space to signify there were actually 11 schools in it. Now they have 12, and their logo sucks.

Here's one you probably don't know:

Toblerone is a chocolate company based in Bern, Switzerland. Bern is also known as the "City of Bears". Hence, the bear silhouette in the mountain.

I eat with my hands....

wait a minute...

hand....left : 4 letter each
hands .... right : 5 letter each

GAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHaeribgaeuirbnaerexlpode

 

[Mulberry]

I learned this in etiquette class in the 8th grade...








also: Port = Left ; 4 letter words
Starboard = Right ; ???

 

[Vagabundo]

I always change the position of the knife and fork in restaurants. I prefer to fork with my right and knife with my left.

One time - and a swanky place - a waiter while passing by kept swapping them back. I'd reverse them to my preferred positions when he was gone while I waited for ma food. He did this three times before it came and them glared at me while i was eating my food; fork right, knife left.

I'm right handed BTW and I learned it because I didn't use a knife to eat my dinner for the first 10 years of my life.

So you're saying Arithmetic doesn't apply to repeating decimal numbers?

Sure it does, but not in the way you think it does. What you're doing is you're restricting the arithmetic to the representation. That would actually make such problems like 1-0.3333333.... unsolvable — there's literally no way to definitively solve it if all you have is the naive subtraction you know from elementary school, the one you apply to whole numbers in such a way that subtracting a three from the first number of a superior magnitude gives you a seven. You can't write the problem down in a way that makes it solvable from the back to the front, which is how the algorithm you're using for your thinking works. So with which algorithm do you want to solve it in that representation? Maybe 1 - 0.3 - 0.03 - 0.003 - 0.0003 - ...., and of course, you have a seven at the end there for each step, but since this goes on forever, there is no end to the seven being replaced with a six, and if you'd just ask "assume I solved it, what individual digits would stand there?", the answer would be "one zero and an infinite amount of sixes" because the seven at the end is an intermediate, temporarily incorrect result, and it's always replaced with a six in the next step, so after solving it, there can be no seven.

But as it turns out, you can just use fractions and be done with it. 1 is 3/3, 0.33333333..... is 1/3, 3/3 - 1/3 is 2/3. Of course 2/3 is 0.66666666....., but that's really not helping, this particular representation is actually introducing an extra step in your arithmetic that obscures the solution more than it helps with anything.

Anyway, no seven anywhere. Of course I get what you were thinking.

But the dessert spoon goes above the plate and the butter knife is to the left.

Though you could add glass to your crazy theory, as that is five letters long and goes on the right.

EDIT: I'm a numpty.

I do not enjoy sand, but I get your point.

Well, yes, but I'm guessing you want a shark shape, rather than, er, a sharkmould shape.

let's just get this over with:

HOLY SHIT. When I saw this post, I looked to my clock and I shit you not the time was 3:13.

I've just gotta hear the story behind this one.

Also, just learn to use a fork in your left hand so you don't look like a weirdo if you go to a very nice dinner with important people.

You only ate mashed potatoes and apple sauce or something?

These are the posts I make when the local so-called hockey professionals crap the bed on national television.

Are you going to make another, or should we just keep going with this one?

(Not a hockey fan, but stunning collapses like this still make me wince in sympathy.)

 

[Acidhex]

I know and understand the setting of silverware, but when it comes to actually using the utensils (I'm right handed mind you) the knife goes into the left hand. You know that fork that you used to pin down that steak you're about to cut? Guess what, it's already in the hand that you eat it with. From what I've seen, most people that eat with their right hand do the following:

1.) Cut food with knife in right hand
2.) Place said knife down
3.) Switch fork from left hand to right hand
4.) Proceed to eat

I just skip steps 2 and 3. On a side note of etiquette, when you are done with your plate knife and fork should be parallel at 5 o'clock and if you're still eating then cross them, as in don't touch my fucking plate.

I am the whitest american ever, next to Powder. I am right handed. Whenever I eat meat, such as steak, I switch fork to left hand, knife to right hand, cut it, and maintain the form in the left hand. All other foods that do not require cutting, fork goes back to right hand.

Sup?

If you take "Mind Blown" and turn the M upside down, you get "Wind Blown." And that's what wind actually does! Or it could mean passing gas! Like a brain fart amirite?! DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND, MAN? No? Fuck you. I'm not here to impress you anyway. I'm going to bed!

I hate this one :/ Sometime i see it spin one way, and sometimes the opposite.

 

[Mistle]

Yeah, that spinning one is one of the best. When it starts going the other way my mind just freaks.

[Insane Metal]

I must have a problem. I've ALWAYS seen it spinning clockwise. Always.

 

[To Far Away Times]

I can't see it without the lines, she always spins one way for me.

 

[Donos]

only saw her spinning in one direction with the normal picture but with the lines my mind is broken...

 

[ConfusingJazz]

While concentrating on the center, and having the lines in the peripheral, I am 90% sure I can question all reality.

 

[big_z]

the spinning girl is easy to see spin each way if you close your eyes for a second and look again.

Concentrate on her foot at the bottom.

That'll help make it switch.
