Some Hero Is Putting Googly Eyes On Miserable Objects, And His Photos Are Going Viral

ADVERTISEMENT

Winter in Scandinavia will last for like six months. So I got bored and restless and decided to glue googly eyes to everything all over my monochrome hometown.

I think it’s called eyebombing. I hope you’ll like it!

More info: Instagram

Hello ladies

This is how winter in Sweden feels like

This is the worst one. It looks exactly like the friend you’ve got who’s always happy because he’s too stupid to realize that everything sucks

ADVERTISEMENT

I call this one “TEQUILAAAAAGRHHHH”

Before you get all upset over this; I actually never glue the eyes to statues, its just adhesives

The classic under cover police in the club-look. Just chillin by the bar

“Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat??!”

This is me every time I hear someone say “shots”

D:

When you wake up and try to remember how you even got home last night

When you and your best friend tries to act normal to get into the club even though you drank hela systembolaget like ten minutes ago

Chillin with bae in the park

When its Sunday and you don’t wanna be alone but you also don’t wanna leave home

Turning in your assignment like

Parent: So how’s your studying going? Me:

Bye

Using the eyes was a Great idea! It adds personality that seems to be so scarce. Do things get any better in the spring and summer? Just curious.

You are really quite clever ! I live in the SE USA with very mild winters . I don't miss the former home in the NE at all. Lake Erie winter winds were unbearable to me.

I live in Stockholm, in the park near our place we have a bunch of sculpture, some with obvious purpose some without. The other day I was walking back from tunnelbana and noticed that one of the minecraft worms (it's what I call them) had eyes painted on it, now I know where the idea came from! Love it

I've done this too. With photo editors but yeah. When you keep walking past objects like these and they remind you of something, after a while you just can't help it. Like here. family-58d...7dd428.jpg family-58d8e897dd428.jpg

Adam, fun pics! I'm curious about what the third pic from the bottom is (looks like a kid with its arms out), we haven't seen anything like it in America or countries we've visited. Thank you!

What about the people who see magic in these items already. Growing up, these things were kind of living to me. They carried their own stories all by themselves. It was like a single touch was an entire timeline of creation, living out a purpose, and continuing for generations to come. From that perspective, this looks kind of cheesy. Just saying.

"This is the worst one. It looks exactly like the friend you’ve got who’s always happy because he’s too stupid to realize that everything sucks" Worst part is that often you are envious. What a pleasure is to be a ignorant. :)

Hi. Aside from liking the googly eyes on everything, I wanted to ask: Is a dangerous town? Because you mention shots and reaching home. Take care!

Community Member
7 years ago DotsCreated by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

no, Uppsala is like any other Swedish mid-sized city - harmless. I was just referring to the shots you drink and the memory loss they bring ;)
