25 Funny Misleading Captions From This Online Group Prove Pictures Aren’t Always What You Think

The mind is highly subjective. And pictures aren’t always what you think! Or are they?

If we’re told we see something, very often that is exactly what we see. Our brains are pretty magnificent: when we need to understand something, the brain works VERY hard to make sense of anything that seems nonsensical.

Of course, that ingenious design has a little quirk. And thanks to the subreddit Misleading Thumbnails, we get to exploit that flaw. The sub pairs misleading titles with images, changing our brain’s understanding of the photo, but also making us laugh.
