No, I'm not refering to any posters here (though that does give me an idea - who would you rate as Mr Angry and Mr Calm here on NS?).
Anyway, this is one seriously cool illusion:

Up close, Mr Angry is the one on the left and Mr Calm is on the right, agree?
Well get up and back away from your monitor (it also helps if you squint). Notice what happens?

Pretty cool, eh?

When 'squinting away' they both appear equally aggressive to me.

Same with me. I can see Mr Calm change to Mr Angry easier than vice versa. Other than being short-sighted in my right eye, I wonder if there's a brain hemisphere/visual thing going on.
