19 photos of common objects that manage to be much more expressive than some people

How many times have you looked at an everyday object and been able to trace a human face in its features? This is a rather widespread phenomenon, called "pareidolia", which tends to lead us to recognise known shapes, objects or profiles (natural or artificial) in random objects. A little as if our brain perceives small optical illusions in everything around us. Anyone who is particularly superstitious or confident of a certain symbology could misunderstand the phenomenon in question, attributing an almost "divine" meaning to the optical illusion. In fact, it is just a subconscious illusion. To give you an idea of the phenomenon, we have collected a series of explanatory photos posted by various people on the internet who have been able to spot the various resemblances in a witty way.
Don't you think that many of these objects are more expressive than certain human faces?
