One of my favorite web comics is The Pain-- When Will It End? I love the drawing style -- it's sort of a throwback to the 30s, but really it's because it's so cynical and beaten down it makes my outlook seem positively optimistic.

Anyway, this week he takes on pareidolia, and it's pretty funny, though very much NSFW. But here at BA HQ we feel the need to spread the love of all things seeing-faces-in-random-patterns-wise. I'll need to email him and tell him about my own shower encounter... at least the face he saw was his own. I don't need dead communists staring at me any more. One is enough.
