For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

At first my brain only saw nightmares. It took me a while but... It's an earbud in an ear surrounded by some blonde hair.

[–] AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

This is what I choose to believe. Thank you.

[–] MajesticSloth@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Thanks because as I lay in bed this would be nightmare fuel not knowing what I'm looking at.

You didn't have to reupload, you can easly swap the image after making the post. 💀

[–] OpenHammer6677@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Oh sorry, I'm not sure how to do that using Boost

[–] Martineskirt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

In situations like these you can just open the browser and edit the post from your instance's site.

[–] OpenHammer6677@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Thanks, will do that next time

First look: one E.T.-lookin' MF.
Second look: the E stands for ear. 😏

A woman with a hoody on backwards with the hood covering her face, and earbuds in? If so, so what?

Are you so concrete as to not see how it looks like an inhuman figure peeking out and staring dead into the camera

[–] harmonea@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We know what it looks like, we just also see what it actually is and thus it loses all effect.

I agree, optical illusions are technically not allowed but I don't plan on being super strict with rules because this place is still very small. Of course I'm still going enforce the rules depending on the posts.

[–] harmonea@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I wasn't advocating for any posts to get removed, just sassing this chump for acting like anyone who can see what it really is is an idiot ("are you so concrete..." etc)

[–] tiredofsametab@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Planes are often way too bright. I'm on board with this.

[–] IHeartBadCode@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm on board with this.

Oh man you flying high with that pun! You hijacking this whole thread.

[–] retrolasered@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 years ago

I hope this one lands
