Perhaps you should read OP’s update and you’ll see it’s not AI at all. I bet you feel a bit foolish!

Maybe you should learn the difference between ‘yesterday’ and ‘today’? And between ‘joke’ and ‘not a joke’?

Was it Pablo the Panda at Butlins? If so, you're right.

Back in the day, way way back in the way way back day, writing with the left hand was considered sinister. I remember it from Catholic school, something to do with the devil and the left. I think the idea and treatment of left handed children might have been sinister.

My mum literally had her left-handedness beaten out of her in school in Ireland.

I had teachers take the pencil out of my left hand and put it in my right (1960s)

Yes, Catholic schools.

I blame JKR.
Never had any of this before she learned to write.
She’s got a lot to answer for.

Oh my word, that's genuinely like something from The Purge! 😂

It's a Masked Singer costume. Not sinister just bonkers!

familyissues12345 · 31/03/2026 20:25

Isn’t it someone carrying a panda Teddy over their shoulder? It does look weird!

Parsleyforme · 31/03/2026 20:46

Yes I agree I think it looks a bit dead behind the eyes (obviously it is a costume/mask so will never look alive! But something in the expression is a bit weird)

Yes, Catholic schools.

My husband’s mother wasn’t allowed to write with her left hand in Ireland - this would have been in the 1940s.

I’m with you, @Arlanymor — I’m a stoic, unflappable human being, and the OP hasn’t chilled me.

I'm a stoic too - literally have a book on it! Virtual high five!
