No, it's an optical illusion - both shapes exist, but different groups of people tend to see one first instead of the other.

I see the rectangles initially, but after staring at the cross for a bit the circles appear:

Good call - not sure you can tag images in comments as NSFW (to get the auto-blur), but I've hidden it in spoiler tags.

(Potentially) [NSFW] ::: spoiler Tap for spoiler

Edit: This one's been floating around the net for long enough that I'd forgotten what the feathery chap in the back left was up to!

Hidden behind a spoiler for those who don't want to see an owl swallowing an entire rat(!)

D'you think we can get Ricardo Montalban to hypnotise one of the sportsball players?

Little Shop of Horrors and Beetlejuice.

How old were they? Because this (top left) may be the reason...

You can still do this in Waterfox, FYI.

I've not used Firefox in years (just various forks), specifically because of Mozilla's insistence on changing the UI and not allowing you to change it back.

I'm just picturing one of those episodes of MASH where they leave Frank Burns in charge.

England - never been a line. The only thing I've ever had to wait for is for the bod manning the polling station to find my name on the list and hand me a voting slip. In and out in a couple of minutes.

When your hobby becomes your job!

Parents would find their baby child had been replaced by odd beings who were almost but not quite human.

However strange appearances aside it was their behaviour that marked them out - changelings were said to be either extremely badly behaved - constantly crying and prone to violence, or at the other end of the spectrum strangely docile, often mute and seemingly unable to comprehend anything about the human world they had been left in.

Yep, totally a brand new thing that hasn't appeared throughout human history.

Wake up about 15 minutes before I have to be out the door. Just enough time to go to the loo, brush my teeth and chuck some clothes on.

If I give myself more time than I need, I just get sidetracked by something and end up making myself late.

I saw an early screening of that episode at a post-con event at a Star Trek pub in London.

When that scene came on a ripple of 'FFS - really‽' laughter went round the room, just because of how blatant it was.

You joke, but crop milk is a thing:

Crop milk is a secretion from the lining of the crop of parent birds in some species that is regurgitated to young birds. It is found among all pigeons and doves where it is also referred to as pigeon milk. Crop milk is also secreted from the crop of flamingos and the male emperor penguin, suggesting independent evolution of this trait. Unlike in mammals where only females produce milk, crop milk is produced by both males and females in pigeons and flamingos; and in penguins, only by the male. Lactation in birds is controlled by prolactin, which is the same hormone that causes lactation in mammals.

I bet he drinks Carling Black Label.
