Except from saying how much he loves our blog, David T. sent us this interesting illusion (well, “hunt and seek“) poster from the tv show called “The Fringe”.

I couldn’t resist posting this one, after I first saw it yesterday! The image below is part of the Motivational Posters subculture, subtitled “When you see it, you’ll sh*t bricks”.

To share some background news, the story is I finally gave up (to all the pressure from my friends) and started playing some online poker. What I found out, is that there are literally thousands of websites promising huge bonuses for new players, but for now I only had luck with this Sports Betting website [...]
