Just a bit of silliness to cheer us up. Dh and I found it funny anyway. 👀

My son puts googly eyes on my vegetables in the fridge Grin. He's 20!

My work diary has googly eyes (Well eye now, one dropped off). They were sit ting on my desk and I stuck them on. Cheered me up ever since.

This could be a contender on how to cheer up January.

Pareidolia I think @awwlookatmybabyspider Unfortunately we can't keep them on with them being plastic but they'll make us smile until we need to use them.

I think I'll nick the eggs idea and stick some on when we've got some 😂

I can highly recommend putting them on things in the fridge (milk bottles, cartons etc) without telling anyone then sitting back and trying not to giggle to yourself whilst you give it away as someone to make you a cup of tea etc that necessitates a fridge trip.

Your son sounds fun @planningaheadtoday

@ZenNudist it could be one of those challenges: find at least one to do every day!

OMG I've been wondering for most of my adult life what that side of the cheese grater was for. Now I know. Xmas Grin

mrwalkensir · 30/12/2020 01:01
enjoy
mrwalkensir · 30/12/2020 01:04

should add that it's Walken and googly eyes....

Athenajm80 · 30/12/2020 01:06

There is a guy on Instagram who does this when he's out and about. I think his IG name is something like Mr Googly Eyes (surprisingly!)

I've heard about people doing it when they've been house sitting which always makes me laugh.

I bought some to 'googly-eye' things at work but I forgot to check that they were self adhesive. They stayed unused in my drawer for ages cause I thought it was probably best not to use glue to stick them anywhere

@Awwlookatmybabyspider

🤣🤣. Those gloves do look ever so cute. What’s that called when you can see faces in things, pandolia I think or something like that
Pareidolia.

That video is hilarious and so is the googly eye man on insta. I feel like I've found my calling!

Prop them up against things @Athenajm80?

The bottom face on the cheese grater looks like Cookie Monster!

We used to have an old coffee machine and the handle thing looked like a big nose so I stuck googly eyes on it. Made me feel bad for it every time I opened the cupboard it was shoved in.

BendyLikeBeckham · 30/12/2020 01:54

I love that Christopher Walken sketch!!

ABitOfAShitShow · 30/12/2020 01:58

I’ve had a terrible few days and I honestly did not think it was going to be a cheese grater with googly eyes on it that finally made me smile. And the Walken video? I actually managed a laugh! Thanks, gang. Grin

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 30/12/2020 02:02

@FlamedToACrisp. Those stairs want to eat you!!!!Grin

shitinmyhandsandclap · 30/12/2020 02:06

My stapler, holepunch, glasses case and computer mouse all have eyes 😁

BluePeterVag · 30/12/2020 02:13

I love MrGooglyEye man. Silly but just what I need for a laugh.
I also love the new to me genre of People Selling Mirrors. There is a Twitter account that makes me chuckle

Love this OP! Thanks for making me smile Smile

Aww this is great 😂👀👀👀

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 30/12/2020 05:11

Have you tried a couple on your eyelids?

They're ideal for Zoom Meetings when things become tedious and you're a bit tired. 👀

Onedropbeat · 30/12/2020 05:14

Don’t forget the eggs

That’l be such fun when someone opens the lid on the box

StepAwayFromTheEcclesCakes · 30/12/2020 08:42

We did this at work, eyes on the satsumas on someones desk and eyes on all thecactus plants in the cheif execs office 😳

TwoZeroTwoZero · 30/12/2020 11:49

I didn't put any on my eyelids but I did put them on my nipples and surprised dh! He thought it was hilarious. I'm obviously not posting a photo of that though!

I've taken some ideas on board!
