I work at a thrift shop, came across this cursed object. I wonder what happened here.

I'm imagining some kid getting gifted this, getting creeped out (or simply the AI art making the intentions feel hollow), and getting rid of it ASAP.

I knew this was going to be a thing when AI images started getting popular. It's so sad to see I was right :(

Yep I called it instantly. I see irl slop all the time. Art/humanity is dead.

It's hideous, and needs to be burned with fire

Hopefully it'll be recycled into something less gormless

The pieces being in a plastic bag is bad enough on its own.

Well it's at a thrift shop so it's courteous to have the pieces in a bag because it implies that the complete puzzle is present when you decide to buy it or not.

If it's a used puzzle and the pieces are free range then it has the chance to be really disappointing when you can only learn it wasn't a complete board after you are 99.995% finished with it.
