Have you ever wondered why some structures, things or even building seems to be smiling. If you want to put it in a scientific way, its a symptom called Pareidolia. It means its a psychological phenomenon involving a stimulus often an image or sound being interpreted with a meaning. E.g. Seeing faces or animals in the cloud. However to put it in my own way, I think it's just the use of
IMAGINATION.
I think in life, we just need more imagination when it comes to the way we view things or think about things. Then only will we be able to Think out of the box. So here are some of the images that i gathered, which I feel look like they have emotions with just a little bit of imagination.
Does this basin actually look like it's in shock?
Because it definitely does to me.
What about the washing machine?
To me It looks like a washing machine with a silly face As the red shirt was half hanging out of the washing machine.
And here are the textures on a piece of wood
which seems to have the features of a bear.
This definietely look like the world's happiest plane!
I personally find this very funny!
It look like the door is actually the mouth
of the wall.
Does this look like a chicken to you?
smiling pots.
Happy to be used for cooking maybe?
I see a Skull in the middle of the flower,
I find that it's kind of appropriate since
the flower is wilting which also means death.
And skulls are often used as representatives
of death or darkness.
Does the car seat belt actually look like
it's sticking it's tongue out?
I definitely thought so!
Angry/depressed looking alarm clock.
True enough, we as humans
don't like alarm clock either
since it just means we can't stay in bed longer.
Maybe this alarm clock just got
tired of people hitting it's head?
