It occurs to me that there are people who weren’t on this website in 2012 and therefore never saw the magical gif that you can actually hear:

It’s been over five years and that still impresses the hell out of me.

[galwaygremlin]

wdym you can hear it?

[superpaperclip]

Basically, it’s a form of synesthesia, movement-hearing. In this case, you expect to hear a thud, so you do. It’s estimated that 20% of people experience this type of synesthesia, as opposed to 2-4% for other kinds.

YO what the FUXK

[burntcopper]

The longer you watch it the more you get convinced that you can hear a  distant thud and the air displace.

[lasrina]

I heard the thud. I closed my eyes and the thud stopped. I opened my eyes and I heard the thud. My goodness but human brains are a mess.

[thepolyamorouspolymath]

Omg, I actually heard the thud! I’m so excited – I’m used to visual illusions which I’m always left out of due to my weird visual processing. I feel so included!

[secondbeatsongs]

do you ever see something so terrifying that you just…have to buy it?

[secondbeatsongs]

honest-to-god, this smells like a pumpkin spice latte

it smells sweet

why does it smell sweet

[secondbeatsongs]

this smells…horrifying

it smells like something that should not be consumed by humans. it smells like a jack-o-lantern that’s rotted after four days on the front porch

and it tastes…it tastes…

so, there are good ways to make something pumpkin-flavored, around this time of year. pumpkin spice is fine in a latte or dessert, but for pasta or soup, you go savory - onion, garlic, salt and pepper, and you’ve got yourself a decent meal!

but this…

I don’t know if I can finish eating this. I was barely able to start eating it, because the smell is so nauseating, putting it in my mouth feels wrong.

it’s salty, but also horribly sweet, and tastes strongly of cinnamon and nutmeg. when you take a bite, at first it tastes like nothing - but a few chews in, you can feel the awful sticky-sweet spice residue taking up residence in your mouth.

I hate this!

what malicious focus group told nissin that this was a good idea? how many people tried this product and thought it was good enough to put on shelves?

why does it have sugar, brown sugar, and sucralose in it? wasn’t one enough, you sick bastards?

-100/10. worst thing I’ve eaten this year. and that’s saying something, because I eat a lot of garbage.

[secondbeatsongs]

no. no way.

fuck everything about this

if they wanted it to be a dessert, why did they make it salty! why did they add a small amount of onion and garlic, and turmeric, and paprika!

a dessert ramen, I could have handled! but this was a normal ramen, with sugar and artificial sweetener added!

what the fuck

[secondbeatsongs]

let no one say I never make sacrifices for my art

[secondbeatsongs]

so, the worst part of this

the absolute worst part

is that the whipped cream actually improves the taste and texture significantly

is it good now? absolutely not

but is it borderline edible?

…fuck. I hate this. this is the darkest day of my life.

to lovely humans who were excluded from invitations, left behind when they tied their shoes, forced to walk in the grass when the sidewalk was full, spoken over when you tried to contribute, whispered about or laughed at, given the side eye when you tried to fit in... you are so worthy of love and I’m sorry people have convinced you otherwise. I promise that your people are out there - people who will see the side of you others ignore, people who share weird inside jokes with you, give you affectionate nicknames and go to museums or roadtrips with you and fulfil whatever idea of friendship you’ve always fantasized about. even if you feel like an empty shell of your former self because you’ve hidden yourself away due to shame, this exterior will melt when you accept yourself or let people in and you’ll realize there was nothing wrong with you all along. you have interesting things to say, you deserve new chances and beginnings, your heart is probably made of gold because you know what it’s like to be left out in the cold, and you have so much to give. you are so worthy and someone’s idea of a friend too, and I hope you receive lots of hugs in the future from yourself and others because you’re so lovable.
