50 Interesting Comparison Images That Will Give You A Different Perspective
Perspective is a wonderful thing. Sometimes you can only truly appreciate something by making all the random thing comparisons with slightly altered parameters, for example of location, age, or time.
These cool photos, compiled by the helpful folk here at Bored Panda, gives the wonderful gift of perspective by doing precisely that. Side-By-Side comparisons of everything from astonishing pictures of before and after in the autumn time to technological advances in street lighting and size comparisons of unexpected things make for a fascinatingly fresh look at things you may have taken for granted. Scroll down below to check these interesting things out for yourself, and gain a newfound appreciation for the changes (or lack thereof) in our everyday lives!

It means nothing. Bergoglio has been protecting paedophiles all his life. When he visited Ireland he lied by saying that he had never heard of Magdalene laundries or mother & baby homes, which were two the most notorious institutions which enslaved and murdered women and children. When challenged by our head of government and Minister for Children he stonewalled the points they made, especially the points about the Tuam babies.As he left Ireland he made an appalling comment to the effect that gay people were mentally ill and required psychiatric treatment. This is purely because Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and Minister Katherine Zappone are both openly gay. He has done nothing, and will do nothing, for the victims of the church.

Like many others I wondered in passing if he was the biological father, but the congruence of a number of facial features means that he very likely is. The height disparity is not entirely inexplicable - there could be recessive genes involved that were modified by the mother's contribution, and there may be dietary/faminedisease issues in the father's childhood (or, through epigenetics, in the grandparents' life histories) that have dictated the father's height. Genetics and inheritace are wonderful things...

My college had a very good volleyball program, drawing players internationally - more than you would think from Central Europe, especially coming to a tiny town in Arkansas. We also had a large number of Taiwanese students, especially in mathematics and engineering. Somehow, a 6'7" (200cm) Slovenian girl got paired up with a 4'10" (150cm) Taiwanese girl as roommates in the dormitories. They were absolutely inseparable, and I think they enjoyed all the people openly rubbernecking when they walked by.

White light is not a good idea, though. There are modern LED street lights that are bright enough for driving as they give a sharp view but do not bother wildlife so much.

True. White and blue colours are to be avoided when choosing the lights, whether it's LED or anything else. To relax, experts recommend reddish or warm tones, like orange and yellow (available also in LED technology). And this is actually about physics, biology and neurology, not some scam that sells itself under the "inner peace" disguise.

I find LED so relentless and exhausting when driving. Old fashioned light bulbs 'twinkle' which makes them so much easier to bear. The same goes to old fashioned versus LED head lamps.

Beats do not even sound that good, just lots of bass and a brand name

As a bass lover they fit for me. With Sennheiser Psy Trance sounds too discanti

First Three Game Of Thrones Books Vs. Same Books In Braille
Kristy P 6 years ago
Can you imagine what a bookcase worth would look like?? If I were blind, I'd probably donate them after I was done rather than keeping the collection I have now!

I'd have to think there's a special library for that. Can you imagine the cost of one of those?

There are many displays that can turn text into braille: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refreshable_braille_display

I disagree. People who are blind need Braille to learn to read and write English well. The tactile experience reinforces reading and writing skills in a way that audio versions cannot. 70% of people who are blind are unemployed. Of those who are employed, 84% can read Braille. Being fluent in Braille enables the blind to write well, which is very important in terms of employability.

For the record here, he served as president, as many have done, during the time in life when we begin to show the signs of aging. Also take in to consideration the difference someone after 8 years. No one looks the same.
Ben Steinberg 6 years ago
This happens to ALL two term presidents. You can see the weight of the office on their aging faces. Even the lessor presidents felt the weight. The current guy would probably look younger after all the time...

Hopefully his side by side comparison might include a casket. Ijs at 72 could happen in just 4 years, and wouldn't be a terrible thing for the global good.

It really is about time that America end the big joke they've been playing for the last couple of years lol! I swear, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if they were to turn around and say "we were just joking about Trump being president"! Any day now.........................

East Berlin? (don't really know if they call it East Berlin but I mean is this from the part of the city that used to be East Berlin?)
Marjan van Houten 6 years ago
The borough it’s situated in, Mitte, is the most central borough of Berlin and contains both East and West districts, but this house is situated in the Kleine Rosenthaler Straße and is in the East.

The Difference In Lighting Between My Sister’s Room Vs. My Room At The Exact Same Time Of Day
Adam Quinney 6 years ago
the room on the left has a light on inside though, you can tell by the shadow of the ceiling light. Either that or it has a second window.
Yasmine Khan 6 years ago
probs an extra window based on the way the light is diffused

It is always a pleasant surprise to see all these comparisons. If they did not exist, I would probably be living in another dimension, into a galaxy very far away.
