[QUOTE=An Gadaí]  
In Drumcondra? Yeah why not… finally dawned on me what ya meant. I’m actually sober I’ll have you know my good man.

Boyo Jim, are you related to the great actor, Brendan Gleeson?  
[/QUOTE]

I share your admiration, but I am not to my knowledge related to him. OTOH, my dad, who immmigrated from Ireland in 1948, said the Gleesons are all one family. Of course, he told me lots of bullshit growing up.

To sum up, no clue.

Anybody recognize this description?  
[/QUOTE]

I remember that one! It’s in one of ‘the best Internet pictures’ threads here, I think in IMHO (I know, I know, we can’t search, I’m sorry), and it also scared the living hell out of me. Almost creepier than a screamer itself.

I’ve seen the one with the guy in the bathroom window, too–although that one’s not so much creepy as amusing to me (maybe it’s the expression on the guy’s face).

Ugh, yeah. There are a couple of those “bathroom window” pictures that give me the heebie-jeebies. I wonder what all those girls are doing in that tub anyway? It didn’t look pornographic.

Ahhhh. I finally see it.

It’s the lack of an apostrophe in “you’ll”. 😉

Disclaimer: I do not, as of yet, see a damn thing but woods.

The picture _reminds_ me of the oft-circulated painting of someone shooting up heroin in an apartment which is also the picture of a skull. The lighting in it, especially on either side of that skinny little tree in the middle.

Hmmph, can’t find a Google Images link to the one I had in mind, but similar ideas  
[Here](http://bp1.blogger.com/_6NwSLH0-B0A/RvAKgVpub2I/AAAAAAAAAQs/0-BS0hUf7uo/s320/optical-illusion-7.jpg) and [here](http://www.somethingevil.com/images/uploads/dali_against_vd.jpg)

But I can’t reconcile this woods thing into any large foreground image, skeletal or otherwise.

I’ll just note that in the OP picture, there is a somewhat amusing effect that it looks like shadows are all pointing towards the cut log, but it appears to just be branches and the way the earth ripples changing the light and such if you look close.

I’d never heard of these but a little googling reveals that some of them at least do contain things you have to look for. I saw 2 with guys looking in the window at naked girls and 1 T-Rex that may or may not have been a scene from JP2.  
[/QUOTE]

A little googling about what exactly?

I found the **Sexy Lamps** one amusing, and found the hidden image more easily as a thumbnail than as a full pic.

[QUOTE=Wheeljack]  
I can’t find the danged thing now, but it’s a black and white picture of a crawlspace/basement looking area with pipes and boilers and stuff. It’s very dark and it compels you to peer into the distance in the center of the frame, but at the extreme left edge there’s a rather spooky looking guy looking at the camera. What’s so startling about it is that once you see him you realize he’s been there looking at you for however long you were looking everywhere else.

Anybody recognize this description?  
[/QUOTE]

Unless I’m mistaken, it’s somewhere near the bottom of this page I found via google.

Slight warning, some of the things there might be borderline NWS, and since they have lots of big “mindfuck” words in the images all over the place I’m gonna disable link parsing. Cut & paste if you want to see.

Yep, that’s it. Second from the bottom.

I busted my googler trying to find that. Good job!

OK. In the foreground, there’s a thin, curved tree. To its right, farther back (and lighter) there’s another…and one more to the right still farther away and lighter. Follow THAT tree to almost the top. There’s a human face.

Oops!

So do you think that’s the solution? Looks doctored to me but I was hoping for something more dramatic.

BTW, TPG’s link has some interesting ones in it as well.

Can’t see [sh]it.

Is the face facing forward? Is it smiling?
