40 Times Wiggle Eyes Made Random Objects Better, As Shared In ‘Eyebombing’ Online Community (New Pics)
"Eyebombing" is a humorous trend of sticking googly eyes on random objects to essentially make them come to life. This movement came around in the early 2000s, and the inspiration for this entertaining idea has been claimed by French artist Do Benracassa in his 1980s project "Ça Vous Regarde".
Though many say that sticking the wiggle eyes on images of people is not considered to be part of the trend, since the folks portrayed are already alive, sometimes it adds a lot of character to the photos and even makes things more relatable.
Several folks took it to one of Reddit's communities dedicated specifically to the "eyebombing" trend to share their brilliant googly eyes masterpieces. The online group currently has over 64K members and has been a thing since 2011. Moreover, BP has already done a similar article, so click here if you would like to check the first part out.

Someone Put Googly Eyes On Different Things In My Lab
Our television lost one of its googly eyes in the last move, so he has an eyepatch on one corner, now
That's it, I'm going to purchase a package of googly eyes and live my best life!
I'm 40, and my purse is full of googly eyes. I've been doing this for years!
Putting them on your fridge stuff is always hilarious! So many groceries look surprised!
i've had giant ones on my fridge itself for about two years now!
Load More Replies...time to go buy a suspiciously large amount of jellybeans, glue, and googly eyes.
Me and my husband have done this to our children randomly through out the house for years. They still can't figure it out.
Wiggle eyes though? I have to question why that's used in the title but nowhere else, and who would even call them wiggle eyes to start with? Also, never seen googly eyes "in the wild" so to speak, so I have to wonder how many of these might have actually been self-reports...
I've been doing this all over NYC (and other places) for 4 years. It's possible #2 is mine!
omg so one of my old co-workers goggle eye boomed our breakroom the whole place was fill of stupid giggles( worked at a spa)
I put googly eyes on my bottle of Midol. If there's ever a time when I need a smile, it's when I'm getting it out of the cupboard!
Got googly eyes at dollar tree. They require glue, not self-stick.
