In the same vein as other ‘things humans do that aliens might be weirded out by’ what if human pattern recognition skills were the thing? Like the ability to see a cloud resolve into a dog, or faces in wall patterns. Stuff that evolved from predators having camouflaging abilities, or let’s face it, bugs that can look basicaly like a leaf to prey ON.
Imagine an alien being super confounded by a human being like ‘oh, that control board looks like a face’ and it’s just this big grouping of random lights and line but no ALL the humans on board think it looks like a FACE and theyve started NAMING it. And it just seems so confusing- is there anything on this flat painted wall? ‘No of course not’ HOW IS THERE AN OF COURSE NOT. What about in that galaxy? And the human squints and stares at it and says ‘yeah, it looks like a cat.’
And they an draw out what they’re recognizing in the lines but it’s just so strange.
And then an enemy develops ‘cloaking technology’ that’s based on camouflaging and are so angry that every single human is able to point it out because it’s a completely obvious moving shape to them.
or: alien species are introduced to leaf insects, tigers, and that one octopus that imitates a coconut and freak the heck out.
god I love this kind of post
I play that good 'ol hat simulator and ever since the comp beta hit I've been getting stuck with rando's who will double up classes like sniper, spy, and engie, and who will refuse to change or outright leave games. It's easier to get a med or another solly in a pub with a unusual.
I assume you’re talking about TF2 because hat simulator, but I never actually played it so I dunno half about what you’re talking about here
I think it depends on the gametypes when it comes to doubling engineer. You want two engies if you’re playing CTF because spies can easily take out one turret and engie but two is where it gets complicated.
Apparently “spite” is not an ‘appropriate answer’ to “What motivates you?”
Ok, so the tattoo artist I have been going to for all of my tats seriously does everything in his life out of spite. He became a tattoo artist because he was told it was stupid, he got married because his friends told him not to, he bought a house with a picket fence because he was told he wasn’t the kind of guy that would do that, and he had a kid because he was told he would be a crap father. He has a nice wife, an adorable little girl, a good house, and is an award winning tattoo artist.
@ artists of tumblr Heads up! We’ve got a reposter cropping up.
I was messaged by this person two days ago, and I paid it little mind because, due to horrible spelling and grammar, I assumed this was spam. But to my surprise, they responded earlier today, so I told them the brutally honest truth about why I didn’t respond and why I don’t do art trades.
They decide to go the “YouTube commenter” route and try to tell me off. (they even announce their ‘age’ which really just had me laughing at how childish it was) But then I saw they reposted so I informed them that this information would be used against them and I’d be blocking and flagging their block for art theft. The last picture is their response before I’d blocked their blog. (this is the entire conversation, though one of my responses was cut near the end, it’s nothing important though)
I mean the last post is probably evidence enough that this guy doesn’t care that they repost.
If this person messages you, or you see this person anywhere, do not confront them. Just report their blog and block them. (which is what I have done) And you may want to check if they’ve stolen your art too.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
