This thread reminds me of my first job when I couldn't get a straight answer about an issue, so I asked the user to send me a screenshot of an error. They took a picture of their screen, printed it out and sent it interoffice it to me.

That happened to meek about a week ago.

Worst part?

The idiot that did it is a highly paid "technology" consultant.

LMAO...i'm sitting here looking at several of the pictures of spotted ghosts but I don't see a fucking thing. if anything it's just pixrelation from using a shitty camera/at night. I think these people are fucking crazy...

I wanted to save a pic and randomly circle a section on the pic and be like "zomg! a ghost!" and see how many people actually see a ghost, but it won't let me draw a circle.

Anyway, so my sister sends me this creepy fucking picture and tells me that the sister of this nurse that works at her hospital took this pic. Apparently the girl is always playing and talking to this kid and has her parents pull out seats for him at dinner and set out food and stuff. My sister says it's bs. I think it probably is too, but I can't track down the pic online (no l33t g00gling skills :().

Can anyone help find the pic so I can tell my sister it's fake? Thanks!

Mosh, it's just condensation on the glass. If you didn't know this before, I'll explain now, that the human brain is developed to recognize facial patterns for danger. It will generally see any group of three dark "holes" or spots as a face. Just the way your amygdala works.

you're joking right? i still don't see anything...
eye exam lately?

i didn't say i believed it was a ghost... booooooo! i'm scared, can't sleep at night, so don't go down that path. :hmm:

i do see the head of a skeleton like figure where i circled in red on the photo.
if you can't see it, i really think you need glasses.

i'm not saying i think you believe there is a ghost. I don't see a damn thing except maybe some glare, but it certainly doesn't look like anything...

i got new glasses just a few months ago.
