42 Funny Examples Of Pareidolia People Had To Share Online

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been spotting faces in the most random places—tree trunks, electrical outlets, even in my breakfast.

Turns out, there’s a name for that (and no, it’s not “just being weird”). It’s called pareidolia, and apparently, I’m not the only one seeing faces everywhere.

The subreddit r/Pareidolia is packed with hilarious examples of people finding unintentional faces and expressions in everyday objects, and honestly, they’re too good not to share.

If you’ve ever seen a grumpy suitcase or a happy taco shell, this post is going to make your day.
