Well that's some toxic positivity

[–] Amanduh@lemm.ee 2 points 6 hours ago

How is it toxic?

[–] FourWaveforms@lemm.ee 13 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

if you don't cover one eye it reads "you're dong great and I'm gay you exist"

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 3 points 11 hours ago

Thank you for being gay that I exist.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 48 points 1 day ago (2 children)

From the charging hole.

Can do, boss! Not sure what this means though.

Great, now my family are wondering why I was laughing.

You can show them this clip from a movie to make them understand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qti4VT6T0ts

What exactly is closing one eye suppose to do?

[–] TheTrueColonel@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 20 hours ago

Helps clear up the text, as you won't have two slightly different perspectives trying to read an already straining message

[–] kruhmaster@sh.itjust.works 49 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Bold statement from someone who has no idea who I am.

[–] nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

i do not need to know who you are to be glad you exist.

*cries with tears only in one eye.

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 2 points 23 hours ago

*cries with tears only in one eye, but the other one*

[–] Carrot@lemmy.today 8 points 1 day ago

I've seen so many of these I have gained the ability to read them straight on. In this case it doesn't matter, but I always feel like I've got one over the meme creator when it says something like "You look dumb holding your phone like that"

[–] Routhinator@startrek.website 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Is perspective really considered an "illusion"? While this demonstrates perspective it at no point makes me see something that isn't real.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's an illusion because no one would ever really say that.

That's an unhelpfully restrictive definition of illusion that is itself illusory. An illusion is also:

A sensation originated by some external object, but so modified as in any way to lead to an erroneous perception; as when the rolling of a wagon is mistaken for thunder.

The text is hidden or revealed through a change in perspective. That is the illusion.

[–] Routhinator@startrek.website 0 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

There is nothing erroneous about this perception.

[–] Wolf314159@startrek.website 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

It's an optical illusion. By definition their isn't generally anything YOU would call erroneous about any optical illusion, I'd guess. The fact that the text is difficult bordering on impossible to read at some angles is the perceptual error. Stop ignoring obvious interpretations to support your pedantic trolling.

[–] Routhinator@startrek.website 0 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not trolling. This is simply not an illusion.

[–] Wolf314159@startrek.website 1 points 34 minutes ago

What a convincing argument. I didn't realize you had the authority to just decide.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Illusions, Michael.

Is it not fair to say perspective can be used in illusions? Or how are you defining illusion?

You're doing great and I'm glad you exist

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Okay thanks but what does it say

[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's a good thing shit like snow crash doesn't exist because if it did we'd be trolling people to tilt their phone to look and making them alt + f4 life.
