4. When you aren’t careful enough:
5. This ice cream came without a cone.
6. Yes, these are peanuts in a Coca-Cola bottle.

8. At least they found what they were looking for.
9. Now I know what a bottomless cup of coffee looks like.

Саn yоu find thе Iаrgе dоg hiding in this kitсhеn?
There’s something fascinating about the way optical illusions and other mind-bending images almost distort your brain.
There are hundreds of such pictures on the internet and in old books — but this one comes from real life.
There’s an “invisible” being in this picture, but it’s not a sneaky intruder or burglar…
Rather, it’s a dog that everybody’s looking for.
Even people who are good at figuring out optical illusions are confused by this tricky photo…
Can you see the big dog hiding right in front of your nose? Take a look at the picture below!
(Don’t worry if you can’t find it right away. We’ll walk you through the process until you get it…)
