    Does anyone else think that Europe, Asia and Africa look like a dude with some funny looking shades and a funky haircut?

          Not in the slightest, I can’t even work out where his shades are or what direction he’s meant to be facing etc - though I expect as soon as I’m shown I won’t be able to see ot any other way :)

              Haha, yes, circling Europe, Asia and Africa isn’t helping much - I already knew that bit :)

              Which way is the face facing? Where’s the eyes and mouth etc?

                  Hahaha! That’s brilliant. I honestly never would have found it - I think I’m so conditioned to just see that map as “Europe and the continents next to it” (or “Crusader Kings II Background”), that my brain wouldn’t allow me to abstract the image :)

                    Yeah, I know what you mean 😂. I can’t look at that image any other way either 😂. It’s burned in my brain, the first time I saw it, bam, a weird looking dude, and that stayed 😂.

        Yes.

        I’ve seen this image in that way ever since I was a kid. The weird looking man, that’s what I used to call it when I was a kid.
