The MIRROR *phenomenon*

[Madcowz]

Anyone notice how your reflection differs from mirror to mirror? Like some make you look more built or defined than you really are, and some make you look like 10-20 pounds less... am I crazy or does anyone else notice this? I mean I realize lighting makes a difference, but if you put two different mirrors in the same setting, this still holds true!

maybe because the mirror or silver backing aren't all exactly straight or perfect, causing light to bend at different angles, causing you to see things differently from mirror to mirror?

I don't notice it unless it's really warped.

LOL, no, but that sure did bring a few chuckles!

The mirror at the _____ where I get my hair cut makes my head look smashed down. Didn't know what exactly to call it, put your own word in there.

I don't get it; what's so cool about that? It's just the Google HP backwards, right? I looked, but didn't see any Pics or Satanic Messages...WUWT?

Yeah I have noticed that. I like to tilt my mirrors to get a better view!

Are you sure its not the 'lighting effect'?
