'Hakan' has it right - the blocks are not straight, but since they make up a horizontal line, they give the illusion that the the lines aren't horizontal - that's all.

The description didn't say otherwise c'mon - you're wanting parallel straight lines made up of parallel straight blocks to look slanted...?!? Good luck! I like it, I also like the fact that it's named after bacteria Erm, it’s the lines that are straight/horizontal, the blocks making up that line aren’t. The description didn’t say otherwise
