OT: Strange Things

while i believe that people have a soul and could walk around after there dead, i also think it's an inkblot.
cats that are looking at something are probably watching a dust mote or a fly to small to see.
ok, i don't know this for sure, but people give off different smells depending on there emotions and cats and dogs can smell this.

so, there's no cause to start thinking spirits yet. but if something does totally creep you out, get rid of it. you know that scene in ghost busters two where the baby carriage is pulled? our house had a bad feeling for weeks after that.

It's an optical illusion.

The human mind craves order. It will find patterns where none exsist and create recognizable pictures from otherwise unrelated dots. Did you see the devil face in the smoke coming from the twin towers? It was a lot more clear of an image then your cat's eye here. So was the Mars face I mentioned before. That one still creeps me out even after I know what it is. Stuff like this happens all the time. It's interesting to look at and talk about, but it's very simple to explain really.

It either looks like a face or a storm trooper.

That middle image there looks almost exactly like the shape in the eye. Strange indeed. But it is just as everyone has already said a reflection of something that your minds eye is making out to be a face.
