awesome yet creepy

I feel compelled to show you all my new desktop wallpaper:




MYCROFT FTW!

I love this picture but I'm also kind of unnerved by it. Because, well, it's not as though it would be out of character for Mycroft to figure out a way to surveil people through their computer screens . . .

ETA: And the wallpaper/pattern behind Mycroft is a Rorschach test for paranoiacs. So far I've seen giant vampire bats and demon faces.

In the background I see a pretty cow face with a flower on her head!

Hmm, I think that's what I'm seeing as the demon face.

Your brain is probably a nicer place than mine.

Or I see a lot more cows than you do!

The wallpaper, or Mycroft, or both?

*laughs* I love Mycroft (obviously), but he is creepy.

I see it as a slightly sinister duck. I do not know what this says about me.

It says your brain is nicer than mine?

Somebody on LJ linked me to the website of the company that makes the wallpaper, and they call it "Devil Damask." I feel vindicated, or at least non-hallucinate-y.

Or more obsessed with waterfowl. Who knows? *g*

It is very sinister wallpaper, though.

Actually, I have now managed to see the demon. But I must admit it looks more like a bird with a cartoon donkey's head to me than anything else (though of course if I were to actually see a bird with a donkey's head, it would be more disturbing than seeing a demon, since I at least know how one would theoretically deal with a demon, whereas the other is quite outside my sphere...)

Which is probably being bred at Baskerville even now . . .
