See everything what do, and sweet Pareidolia!

[braveheart_5699]

So today I was listening to the easter egg song on Shangri-la, and I heard a quote

"...Their eyes are everywhere and see everything what do, They need me, and I need them, They see me, and I see them..."

So, as most of you know, this song was written in Sam's point of view, so why didn't she just say

"...Their eyes are every where and see everything I do..."

So who, when, or where is that "What"?

"..They need me, and I need them..."

We know Sam needs the crew for something...But what? Maybe we have to complete the easter egg to find out!

"...They see me, and I see them..."

Eh, I got nothin. :oops:

Alright, so a quick search of "Pareidolia" on Wikipedia, I found some pretty relevant stuff.

Pareidolia is a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon or the Moon rabbit, and hearing hidden messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para- – "beside", "with", or "alongside"—meaning, in this context, something faulty or wrong (as in paraphasia, disordered speech) and eidōlon – "image"; the diminutive of eidos – "image", "form", "shape". Pareidolia is a type of apophenia.

"...psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon or the Moon rabbit, and hearing hidden messages on records played in reverse..."

Has Sam had this the entire time? From the beginning? Does teleporting ring a bell? Seeing all of those random pictures? Remember Sam's face in the clouds in Ascension?

The Rorschach inkblot test uses pareidolia in an attempt to gain insight into a person's mental state. The Rorschach is a projective test, as it intentionally elicits the thoughts or feelings of respondent which are "projected" onto the ambiguous inkblot images. Projection in this instance is a form of "directed pareidolia" because the cards have been deliberately designed not to resemble anything in particular

"The Rorschach inkblot test uses pareidolia in an attempt to gain insight into a person's mental state..."

Could that be what Sam is trying to do, get into Richtofen's head?

Carl Sagan hypothesized that as a survival technique, human beings are "hard-wired" from birth to identify the human face. This allows people to use only minimal details to recognize faces from a distance and in poor visibility but can also lead them to interpret random images or patterns of light and shade as being faces. The evolutionary advantages of being able to identify friend from foe with split-second accuracy are numerous; prehistoric (and even modern) men and women who accidentally identify an enemy as a friend could face deadly consequences for this mistake. This is only one among many evolutionary pressures responsible for the development of the modern facial recognition capability of modern humans

As I said before, remember Sam's face in the clouds on Ascension?

"...prehistoric (and even modern) men and women who accidentally identify an enemy as a friend could face deadly consequences for this mistake."

Maybe Sam thought Richtofen was the bad guy, when it was really her!

Any thoughts?

Wow, I realized I just made an AlphaSnake worthy post! :D

:evil: :evil: :evil: So, after almost 6 hours, no replys. So I did all of this work for nothing? :evil: :evil: :evil:

EDIT: And 88 views with no replys? C'mon guys, really?

Please....allow me. Pareidolia could very well play a part in this whole mess. It could also be Treyarch or Eliena and Kevin messing with us after reading all the threads about seeing faces in blood splatters. A good example would be the "Grim Reaper" blood stain that everyones been talking about since Verruckt.

Of course, writing a song and making a new zombie map is completely different. So maybe this whole time we were right about the pareidolias OR Treyarch has decided to throw this stuff in the game after reading all of OUR theories.

One picture comes to mind when I think of a pareidolia. The Ascension picture. Remember how it was changed after Call of the Dead came out? I've seen threads of people seeing numbers and stuff. Also the rockets shadows forming the number 115. They had to have changed the Ascension picture for a reason. Maybe they added some images in there still yet to be found. But [brains] for your post my friend. Great work and thank you for taking out the time.

Ahhh a reply! because you are the first, [brains] to you my good man
