In case you ever misplace your pet -- check the floor.

here are a couple, I hope they're not too inappropriate ... and if not, I've got one more that just might be!

I've no idea, I'll probably have to wait for the xkcd explanation, it's almost like this image with stick figures is trolling him.
If you squint rather hard, the stick figures stop moving (and the colours become less pronounced). We have different receptors for low light (rods) and colours/ample light (cones). The latter are also responsible for spacial acuity (because of their different locations). The image cycles between the basic colours, so each set of cones is activated in turn. Because their different location on the retina, the figures seem to move. I could be completely wrong though :).

I have another eye trick where one can see 2 circles that get bigger smaller going up then down left and right and in reality they don't move ....
Problem I can't post it because of the size...

Oh I've got a couple of really good ones, but I'm new here and enjoying myself too much to risk a ban!

Well, we’ll argue your case, if that’s of any help. I mean, we might be disbarred for actually presenting frivolous and unsupportable legal challenges, but that’s OK. We can always get jobs as lobbyists.

He also rode a Triumph: "The roar of Moses' Triumph was heard throughout the hills."

Joshua also had one: "Joshua's Triumph was heard throughout the land."

God drove a Plymouth: "And He drove Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden in His Fury."

Jesus drove a Honda but didn't brag about it, because in his own words: "I did not speak of my own Accord."
