    I’m not familiar with this one, but I guess we’re more biased towards processing stimuli as 3D over 2D, as we live in a 3D environment?

    I mean, anytime I stop focusing on the discs, I default to the embossed squares. But maybe this is different for others?

    It’s crazy that once you see them, they all pop out. I’m able to easily switch back and forth between perspectives. Neato!

      I think this is why people that find four leaf clovers find tons of four leaf clovers. I asked my cousin how he does it so well years ago and he said, they look different I’m not sure how else to describe it, they kinda pop out at you. About a month ago I found my first one and now I’ve found almost twenty.

          I definitely feel luckier, like now when I drive I don’t feel that burden to wait until a stop light to check my phone or look up every once in a while to make sure there’s no trees or headlights coming at me with their bad luck vibe/s

    I know circles and discs are used as synonyms, but I was just looking for the actual curve, or circumference. But if I was looking for discs, then I think I would have spotted them quicker.

      No offense but that sounds like the most pretentious “the sun blinded me” I have ever read :D

        None taken.

        But if you’re doing to say something so hyperbolic next time, maybe drop the “no offense but” and own it.

        It’s like saying “no offense BUT YOU SUCK!”, and that sounds tacky.

        Now please go back to reddit.

          I was serious when I wrote “no offense” as I didn’t meant to offend you. Then i wrote “it sounds” to implies that I don’t think that it is what you were saying but my interpretation of it and at the end I wrote that emoji to bring across that it was meant in jest.

          As you wrote yourself its hyperbolic. we don’t know each other so its fair to interpret it as an attack but it was not meant that way.

          If I hurt your feelings I am sorry that wasn’t what I was going for. If I was I would tell you that straight.

            You’re a very smart, very subtle troll. I like it!

            Anyway. Goodbye.

    No idea what everyone is talking about. I don’t see any circles. Is this just one of those “lets see how long these dumbasses will stare at a screen” jokes?

      It took me about 30 seconds before giving up and looking for clues in the comments to help my dumbass out but the effect is still really impressive!

      This is the word play that makes this a trick. When we look for circles we automatically look for a curved line. Why wouldn’t we? But these shapes aren’t circles.

    if you are having trouble, use the Magic Eye trick where you hold it closer to your face and slowly pull it away

      I just want to say that this is not one the those magic eye thingies. This advice isn’t helpful here. What does help is telling people that the circles are between those rectangles.

    Okay, I seriously thought you were screwing with me, and I was a sucker for staring at this image. I thought that maybe since your username is “atheist”, it was a commentary on faith, and the folly of believing in something that doesn’t exist.

    Now, a few hours later, I’ve tried again… AND THIS TIME I FOUND THE CIRCLES.

    Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior Jesus Christ?
