30 Funny Examples Of Pareidolia In Everyday Objects As Shared By The Bored Panda Community
Have you ever wondered why we are able to spot faces in everyday objects? Well, the scientists at the University of Sydney discovered that humans not only notice faces in ordinary things, but that our brains also analyze them for emotional expression in the same way that real faces are processed, rather than dismissing them as false detections. The said phenomenon was even given the name "facial pareidolia."
With that in mind, usually, when something similar occurs we tend to take pictures of the said objects, therefore I decided that it would be a fun idea to let the community members of Bored Panda share their takes on the topic!

I believe you because cucumbers normally have 3 of those "chambers". Looks like one got pushed shut because it grew more on one side maybe 🤔

I think it's supposed to say "years", but the fact that the typo says yeet (yeat) instead makes it that much better haha

Yes it's gross. Take that banana and her pals to a bowl , mash them up and make banana bread. Or give it to the Librarian. Or feed it to the chickens.
Hilary James (Submission author) 4 years ago
I like that it’s a girl banana 😂 but that’s a boy finger nail. The banana is actually long gone, it was on the way out to trash when the shop keeper saw it and said” hey this banana is still good” he was going to eat it then I noticed the smiley face and took the pic. He ate it right after the pic was taken and as I recall he enjoyed it. I think he saved what was under the nail for snack later on:)
