At first she was "clearly spinning counter-clockwise" and I had absolutely no doubt about it. I couldn't even rationalize how people might see it the other way. The as I started reading, the image flickered a little and reversed directions!!!

Now she spins clockwise and I can't seem to get her to change back so I can watch the switch again. Cool test!

I come across internet memes all the time but every so often you come across one thats just too funny not to share.

Hm... I was easily able to switch several times and I forgot which direction I initially saw since I kept going back and forth. But now my brain hurts.

Something I made while bored at work (yes, this is really what they pay me for):

And in honor of the always-entertaining "hit it" pics:

This isn't so much funny, but it is cool. A bunch of guys with some vintage machine guns set out to find out what it would be like to be a gunner on a WWII bomber.

Yeah, but did they ever actually hit anything?
