80 Times People Spotted The World Glitching Out And Just Had To Take A Photo (New Pics)
You might remember the 1999 Sci-Fi action film The Matrix. Keanu Reeves plays a computer programmer and hacker that goes by the name of "Neo". He's always wondered about the reality of the world around him. Thanks to a "glitch in the matrix", he finds out that humanity is indeed stuck in a simulated reality run by intelligent machines.
It appears Neo isn't the only one who has come across glitches in his world. People have been sharing photos online where their surroundings appear less than real. Bored Panda has compiled a list of our favorites. Some look like glitches. Others could pass for bad renders. A few might even make you wonder if you're living in a simulated reality.

"Hacktivist" group Anonymous describes a glitch in the matrix as "moments when our perception of reality falters, hinting that our world might not be as solid and predictable as we believe", adding that the experiences could suggest something is amiss in the fabric of reality itself.

OK, I'm done here, at least for a while. The ads are making the page glitch and crash so badly that it took about 25 tries to get to the bottom of this list. I'll check back in a week or so, but if it's still broken I probably won't be back again after that. I hope they're enjoying the declining engagement numbers.
