I learned a new word today.
And will probably forget it. Pareidolia. This is when you see an accidental image. Like the virgin mary on a grilled cheese sandwich, or the baby Jesus near a dog's asshole. That type of thing. Check out Rasputin on this kitten's head.
My own example of this: at Zeitgeist a few years ago, I was having beers with this guy at one of those black surfaced tables. You know how a glass will make a ring on a table's surface? Well, all these beer glass patterns coalesced somehow into an uncanny image of Washington's face on the dollar bill. The kicker? It was President's Day. Not bullshitting.
