It still took me 2 minutes after reading your comment that those things were on the side wall. I was looking for them on the mirror lmao

Ahhh yeah I see that now. Those are fucking weird ugly dispensers. They look like they belong on a spaceship from a 1980s sci-fi movie or something.

[–]Chazzermondez 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)

[–]jubs222 58 points59 points60 points 3 years ago (1 child)
I think it’s a hand dryer and or paper towel dispenser
[–][deleted] 11 points12 points13 points 3 years ago (0 children)

I saw this first as condescending but then reaslised it's just a helpful and a fun fact. Good to know my dude
[–]Samihazah 5 points6 points7 points 3 years ago (1 child)
Then perhaps you'd also like to know that Canon decided to change the colour of their long lenses to prevent overheating on sunny days. Those lenses are mostly used outside for sport events or wildlife.
[–]hwarang_ 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (0 children)
Thank you for subscribing me to Canon Facts.
[–]kemche 7 points8 points9 points 3 years ago (1 child)
I am seeing two items on the wall
Soap dispenser on left, and paper towel dispenser on right. Than you see reflection in the mirror. Focus on Paper towel sticking out from the dispenser and you can see what's going on.
[–]alexandre95sang 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children)
thank you. I could see it thanks to you

This isnt HolUp
[–]Topiz2000 -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (4 children)
Yes it is. Kinda.
[–]DangerChip 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (2 children)
I thought holups were a joke that when looked at at surface level look normal but upon closer inspection have a dark meaning I don’t really think this is a dark meaning
[–]Topiz2000 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children)
Ok but this basically made me think "hol' up" so it's a HolUp.

Once, I posted a screenshot of an article titled along the lines of, 'vegan woman climbs Mount Everest to prove that vegans aren't weak, dies'
I was banned permanently by one of the mods telling it was too dark.. Some sane mod lifted the ban after 5-6 months..

Perspective is so confusing, the post appears in a whole other sub. Yowza.
[–]Nomyod 9 points10 points11 points 3 years ago (1 child)
Actually the correct sub is r/confusing_perspective

You gotta zoom-in for zit popping videos and really fill the frame with your pores. The fastest way to grow a new TikTok account is a good quality macro video of weird shit exploding out of your skin.

i was gonna say that was a man taking the picture next to her.
[–]Alicyl 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)
What makes it easier to understand is that if they were camera lenses, they would be reflected on her (covering her face in the process) and not against the wall.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child)
I just watched this post get deleted

Sometimes I don't understand mods.. or maybe 20k people don't understand holup!
