Audio Pareidolia....Right(?).

 Hello...yes this is Kriss....mmmm, OK then. Thanks.

Kind gentle and very goodlooking readers, that was Judas Priest...they said that this is a case of audio pareidolia. Yes, Team Skeptic, pareidolia can come in the audio variety fo sho. In the 80's super heavy, and not yet gay, Judas Priest had to go to court because Christian wingnuts believed that the band put subliminal messages in their music that drove, unfortunately, a young man to commit suicide. The band was not convicted.

 Usually here we talk about the pareidolia that is the Jesus in a piece of toast, the Virgin Mary...in a piece of toast and even, Britney Spears, yes folks, in a piece of toast. that is visual pareidolia. The audio pareidolia is the lesser know of the two, and back in the day-even before we had the sayin' "back in the day"-it was called backmasking. Any who...

Parents are in an uproar...an UPROAR I tell ya, over these cute, and yet creepy, looking babies. What you do is slap one of the babies and then it says a bunch of stuff. Eventually one of the babies will say "shut up bitch", err, or that is what is (sorta) sounds like. The company says it's just gibberish, the parents do not and I say "sure it does sound like that, but it must be a mistake, or what Team Skeptic calls, pareidolia."

"I'm ready to be crucified, mommy."
