I used to think that the people in photographs could see out through their photographed eyes. (I never stopped to wonder why I couldn't see out of any of the pictures that had been taken of me.)
I had liked to read on the toilet before that, but after I developed this delusion I wouldn't read magazines or any book with pictures on the cover while I was sitting on the toilet, just in case.
