This is so far from vandalism that's it's completely virtuous. This makes the world a better place and costs almost nothing.
Amazing. Thanks for sharing.
My girlfriend and kid put google eyes on EVERY SINGLE ITEM in the bathroom while I was at work. Every item in every drawer, in the shower, all the stuff under the sink, the toothpaste....everything. my comb has googly eyes on it. The entire bathroom can stare at me.
Uhhhh I'd so like to see that!
It was about a year and a half ago, so a good portion on things are either missing an eye or have been used up and replaced. Now I don't know what I was thinking by not snapping any pictures back then.
the urge to downvote this is very strong, well done
I keep it in an album labeled โcar guy detectedโ. They always hate it.
Woo, a Japanese VAIO laptop down there!
Car companies do, people have brain circuits specifically for recognizing faces and they exploit that to get peoples attention. Amlost every car has a face if you look closely at the front, its not an accident the headlights look like eyes and fender a mouth. A good tip to not loose things is to put faces on them.

Better tip is simply to use bright colors. Mostly I will see my keys anyway if I look at the directly.
Different bright colors is also a great way to tell between different sized tools like a set of Allen keys and wrenches from a glance and associate a size to a particular color instead of looking for markings on the tool. I go out of my way to get colored sets now

Sometimes making anthropomorphic characters out of things and talking with them
I love to apply googly eyes in comedic fashion.
I read "putting feces on inanimate objects" and I expected a whole different comment section
The mind sees what it wants to see ๐ฎ๐ฎ
I sometimes find googly eyes on stuff in my house. My wife is awesome.
I agree, ur wife is awessome
The very first thing we did on getting our Roomba was put googly eyes on it, then laugh as it bumped into things.
