Fun fact: a human's nose is almost always in their sight. The brain just chooses to ignore it.

[–]verifix 24 points25 points ago

The brain just chooses to ignore it.

Not anymore :(

[–]laconicnature 56 points57 points ago

Arghhhh can not unsee now!! Damn you!

[–]JDvsKurt 21 points22 points ago

I probably look like a fool right now in McDonald's because I'm on my phone crossing my eyes, closing each eye individually, and trying to see how much of my nose I can see. Oh well.

[–]Gobuchul 11 points12 points ago

Same goes for your eyebrows and cheeks. Thank me later.

[–]kDubya -1 points0 points ago

I can most definitely not see my own cheeks. My eye ache thanks you.

[–]BCBUDDHA 4 points5 points ago

Don't forget to breath and blink!!!

[–]LarrySDonald 10 points11 points ago

Came here to say this - it's a pretty big slab of the field. Of course it's covering different things in each eye, so there's a second datastream to replace it, but big chunks have only single channel coverage.

If you wear glasses, they, too, are quite visible if you look for them but usually not noticeable once used to it.

[–]arisasdf 1 point2 points ago

It's also the reason why thick rimmed glasses sometimes have a lighter or more neutral color on the inside, so it blends better with what you're seeing.

[–]undearius -2 points-1 points ago

I knew this fact would be posted, so I can here to say that I came here to say this.. And you already said it. Plus a bonus of more information from what I was going to say.

You are a better human than me. Faster and more informative.

[–]webhyperion 1 point2 points ago

I like your way of thinking.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago

actually, I'm asian and I actually cannot see my nose...

[–]BitsAndBytes 4 points5 points ago

Also weird, your nose as seen from your dominant eye is much more noticeable.

[–]WhitePostIt 0 points1 point ago

why is my dominant eye opposite my dominant hand? Now I can't get over that -I keep trying to grab things with my left hand now!

[–]BitsAndBytes 3 points4 points ago

It's on the opposite side for me as well. Luckily I don't have to aim down the sights of a gun very often, because that could be annoying.

[–]B_Elanna_Torres 1 point2 points ago

Probably because we look through 2 eyes.

[–]zatan130 0 points1 point ago

Oh man, thank you for saying this. I've always thought I was the only one whose nose is in the way, but after reading your comment and doing some research, I've found I'm just more conscious of it.

[–]kurin 1 point2 points ago

Maybe small-ass noses like yours.

[–]nukefudge 0 points1 point ago

i think you mean "factoid".

[–]javastripped 1 point2 points ago

Fun fact: you have a hole in your vision. There is a point where the optical nerve in your retina runs to your brain where there are no light receptors so you have a gap.

They are asymmetric so the brain transposes your vision from the other eye onto that point and you never see it.

People are under the impression that they have full vision because of this.

There are LOT of tricks our eyes and brain play to give us our perception of the world.

3D is another trick... thats why you have two eyes...

[–]PrototypeKH 0 points1 point ago

Oh god. This is going to ruin me.

[–]Perk456 0 points1 point ago

They should start making First Person games with noses in the middle.

[–]the_Yippster 1 point2 points ago

No because then you'll see your nose AND the ingame nose which would make it less realistic.

[–]unsilviu 0 points1 point ago

When I was a kid, I'd play with the dark spots at the edge of my vision. I was disconcerted to find out they were both my nose.

[–]theeredtelephone 11 points12 points ago

FW:FW:FW:RE:FW:Grandma's favorite comic!

[–]Admiral_Cuddles 52 points53 points ago

Fun fact: Rhinos actually have terrible vision and they charge not to engage but to get closer to whatever startles them.

Source: I went to a zoo once.

[–]N0V0w3ls 11 points12 points ago

I have every reason to believe this interpretation!

[–]erix_the_tuna 11 points12 points ago

No actually they charge when they are pissed off. To get closer they just walk like a normal person.

[–]ketchup-_-king 38 points39 points ago

TIL Rhinos can walk like a normal person.

[–]The_Homestarmy 0 points1 point ago

Waiting on a gif of a rhino walking upright.

[–]hiiamabat 1 point2 points ago

And their eyes are located on either side of their heads so theyd actually completely miss their horns in their vision. Usually the case with herbivores.

[–]danhendricks 15 points16 points ago

Did you steal this off a pegboard at a senior center?

[–]xprockox 8 points9 points ago

Legit Info: Rhinos don't see their horn because their eyes are the the side of their head. This is due to the fact that they're herbivores and do not need to zone in on prey, so rather, they're eyes are placed so that they can see almost all directions at once. If you take notice of various animals, you can usually tell which ones eat what just by looking at how their eyes are positioned. Front of the face: Carnivore/Some omnivore. Sides of face: Herbivore/Some omnivore.

[–]guitarguy109 -1 points0 points ago

But trex had eyes on the sides of it's face did it not?

[–]Clinodactyl 4 points5 points ago

And really small arms.

Man, he pulled the shit straw, huh?

[–]hiiamabat 0 points1 point ago

Made up for it in size and large teeth.

[–]xprockox 0 points1 point ago

Ah, yes, you're right. But how long did that work out for him?

[–]guitarguy109 3 points4 points ago

I saw tons of people posting this on facebook with the caption "Follow your dreams" it saddens me at how much they missed the point. /rant

[–]Shumaa1 3 points4 points ago

What is the point?

[–]guitarguy109 10 points11 points ago

A rhino anatomically can never make it's body into/resemble the unicorn's body. It should accept itself for what it is; a beautiful rhino. It's saying be comfortable in your own body. The "follow your dreams" caption in my opinion perpetuates anorexia and negative body image. (not that I am arguing that obesity is okay, just that eating disorder are not.)

[–]nukefudge 0 points1 point ago

sticky.

[–]hotoatmeal 0 points1 point ago

I have this t-shirt.

FYI, original artist is Erdil Yaşaroğlu, a Turkish caricaturist.

Edit : See below.

[–]kiddfc 4 points5 points ago

Wrong! It's on the cover of Selçuk Erdem's third caricature album.

[–]ycan 0 points1 point ago

Oh, you're right. I gotta get my caricaturists straight.

[–]Ikimasen 3 points4 points ago

A crosseyed rhino's view of the world.

[–]Tak291 6 points7 points ago

Again? Dammit with these reposts. Fuck off.

[–]Gobuchul 4 points5 points ago

I've seen very similar post like yours around.

[–]Tak291 1 point2 points ago

Many

[–]assassin10 0 points1 point ago

This is assuming he has a single eye in the middle of his face.

[–]guitarguy109 1 point2 points ago

or two eyes spread equadistant

[–]assassin10 0 points1 point ago

Hold a finger up in front of your face and focus on something in the distance. You don't see a solid finger but two see-through ones.

[–]guitarguy109 1 point2 points ago

yes we know

[–]baconmeupscotty 1 point2 points ago

I wonder if they even see the horn? Like we don't really see our nose... Plus their eyes don't face forward like a predators; horses can't see their own nose because their eyes are on the side...

[–]tokuturfey 0 points1 point ago

This reminded me of the rhino in One Crazy Summer.

[–]ColonicIrritation 1 point2 points ago

I can constantly see my eyebrows and nose in my peripheral vision but I highly doubt i'd paint them into a landscape picture.

[–]vietoushka 0 points1 point ago

Your eyebrows? Really? I just consciously tried to see mine and couldn't unless I rolled my eyes up to the point of being uncomfortable.

[–]JaneRenee 0 points1 point ago

I think he means his brow.

[–]vietoushka 0 points1 point ago

There's not much of a difference...

[–]fdg456n 0 points1 point ago

I can see mine but I have a protruding forehead. If you have deep set eyes you can probably see it.

[–]Apedersen182 0 points1 point ago

Well with how things are currently going, what with rhinos horribly and gruesomely getting their horns cut off, this picture is quite unrealistic....

[–]Darkersun 0 points1 point ago

HAHAHAHA, this comment definitely belongs on a /r/funny post....

[–]Nar_Nar 1 point2 points ago

[–]JaneRenee 1 point2 points ago

How would he be able to see the middle portion of the canvas to paint the horn? :/

[–]cluelesspuma 0 points1 point ago

There was a website where it would put a horn on your browser. It was awesome.

I wish I had the link.

[–]MickeyNine 0 points1 point ago

[–]ryno0013 0 points1 point ago

I know that feel...

[–]Wh33ler 0 points1 point ago

This is kind of similar to my view every morning when I wake up and don't want to get out of bed.

[–]dezi_warrior 0 points1 point ago

Rhinos eyes are so back in their head that I think the horn goes out of view. And who they heck mentioned our nose. Now I cant unsee. got a nose stuck in my vision for the rest of my life.

[–]ezrabot 0 points1 point ago

That a really derpy looking rhino?

[–]broverflow 0 points1 point ago

This is older than the pyramids.

[–]Rockman101 0 points1 point ago

I sent that exact picture to a jewish friend of mine and asked him if this is how he lives day to day, needless to say he was not amused

[–]GoyfAscetic 0 points1 point ago

Isn't sad that there are people who have no problem with removing that horn from any future paintings permanently.

[–]Pravusmentis 1 point2 points ago

Rhinos are PREY, Their Eyes are on the SIDES OF THEIR HEADS, NOT front mounted

[–]venustoise73x 0 points1 point ago

fun fact: this is a repost

[–]House_of_Flip-Flop 1 point2 points ago

Am I wrong that this is a Far Side comic? I might be, but it's definitely Gary Larson's style of humor

[–]RookiesRevenge 0 points1 point ago

Better and funnier then 50% of comics out there. Keep em coming! And thank you for my Sunday morning laugh!

[–]msuswa 0 points1 point ago

Not gonna lie, definitely expected Ace Ventura stark naked looking out the top of the rhino.

[–]bashedturd 0 points1 point ago

This. Is a repost

Rhinos are mostly blind, and are very aggressive because of that

[–]Excalibur32 0 points1 point ago

How to troll that rhino: Print out two pictures of two different sceneries. Tape them to either side of his horn. Now he will think that his horn splits dimensions in two.

[–]WOLFBUNNY 0 points1 point ago

This is the same thing I see when I wake up in the morning.

If you spend your time on a site with millions of users ALL COMPLAINING ABOUT REPOSTS, and think that complaining about them complaining is going to help

You're going to have a bad time.

this is not going any deeper and there will be no inception comments.

that is all

[–]Wheelchairdawg 1 point2 points ago

Well technically I wasn't complaining.

Just pointing out the futility of his/her comment.

[–]patricksaurus 2 points3 points ago

Rhinos: built in appendage for stereo perspective determination. If those motherfuckers had thumbs, human painters would be out of work.

I think it's to show the rhino is crosseyed.
