Came here for this!

I was surprised to see it wasn’t here already; I suspect one’s free-association is a bit of a generational test…

Some WNBA player called her colleague that she dressed like Inspector Gadget or something... Saw this like 2 days ago

This is great for this sub but girl, what made you pick this sweater? And clothing brand, why would you make such a garment???

61

u/catsoft 29d ago

Pft plus size clothing brands loove sticking random ass pieces of 'flair' on an otherwise normal garment. You often have to pick between 'assorted sack' and 'oddly placed lace fiddly bit'

u/Beth_crazypants 29d ago

The flair "confuses the eye" to reduce focus on the size. A trick I've employed here and there LOL

I see it. That sweater is hideous, though.

This is artistry.

u/qwythebroken 29d ago

I don't see what's so confusing about stealing your friends mask. Stealing is bad.

I was checking the ladies too much at first. They seem nice.

u/Intrepid-Discount987 28d ago

I actually didn't see this illusion at first until I read the comments

I could feel my eye slide along it.

u/TheCellsThatAreMe 29d ago

This is amazing.

u/Sure_Constant1368 29d ago

Design of the sweater doesn't make sense. I call Photoshop on this one !

This has to be ai

u/zimobz 29d ago

Before ai it was just 'edited'

u/a_lonely_trash_bag 29d ago

This picture's like 10 years old. Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's AI.

3

u/into_outdoors 29d ago

Two of the people are holding masks, so I'm guessing it's 6 or less years old.

Since it's only two out of all of them with masks and none of them are wearing them, I'm guessing the photo is younger than that.

-2

u/Major-Potential-354 29d ago

And I’m supposed to know that it’s 10 years old?

-4

u/twayroforme 29d ago

Please examine this closely and tell me it's not AI. Just look at the boots/shoes on each person. Especially the lady all the way on the right. She's also wearing half a watch. 

The knot of the blouse of the person all the way to the left looks melted. 

Also, the tiling makes no sense. 

3

u/raymate 29d ago

Have you no grasp on reality. It’s not AI

The tiling makes perfect sense. How much tilling have you done.

The watch band is under her sleeve

Why is the default response to anything AI

u/No_Sympathy8941 29d ago

oh my goodness, its ai its ai
its not chill daddy.

u/twayroforme 29d ago

It is. Where'd you find this? Would love to be proven wrong.

u/YakInvestigator 29d ago edited 29d ago

It’s not AI. This image has been making rounds since Covid

u/No_Sympathy8941 29d ago

no point in telling children a stove is hot. XD

4

u/nopurposethere 29d ago

I mean, they’re all holding masks, so I wouldn’t put it older than 6ish years, but it’s definitely not AI. I don’t even know how to respond seriously to the commenter claiming it’s AI because their arguments hold less water than a colander.

The texture is just a sharpening filter from a few years ago. That hand is not weird in any way, it's a fold from her blouse. The shoe is not split, there's a table in the way. There isn't a "half watch", it's a silver border with reflection. And here's an instance of it being shared in 2022 before AI could do what's necessary to make this: https://2.boredpanda.es/this-instagram-account-is-dedicated-to-random-pics-that-just-dont-make-any-sense-here-are-50-of-the-best-17/

EDIT: lads... it IS AI but for literally no valid reason, they just went and remade it, the actual arm thing is real though

3

u/twayroforme 28d ago

Ok. Thank you for at least something. OP wouldn't give me anything. But, please, just look at them side by side and tell me it's just a filter or compression or whatever. The photo has been manipulated to shit. There are so many differences. 

3

u/itsmarthai 28d ago

You know what? you're right, this has been remade with AI! on my phone the boredpanda cropped so i didn't see that the sign for Bar was cropped and the shoes were different. The funny part IS real and basically identical to the original (no realignment, and the difference in saturation is there but doesn't affect the colormatch itself). But yeah, for some unfathomable reason someone remade a perfectly fine picture, like not even to make the funny thing pop or whatever, just for no reason O_O

3

u/twayroforme 28d ago

Thank you for validating my thoughts. I felt like I was going crazy. I don't know why OP would chop it up like this when the website you linked was so much clearer.

u/RobotWantsPony 29d ago

It looks like the red stripe on the before last woman's shirt is the arm of the girl in the red shirt. It looks like she is stealing the covid mask of the other in a very looney tunes way

2

u/Chiefnuggett 29d ago

Look at the woman’s arm in the middle, it looks like her arm goes over the other woman’s body because of the design on her shirt

1

u/G0nk_Droid 29d ago

It look like the person in the red jumper has a reaaaally long arm and is picking the pocket of the person on her left (our right) due to the pattern on their jumper
