It's time for a brain test — can you figure out these mind-boggling photos from this week's confusing perspective thread on Reddit? Once again, we've picked the best ones from the week and want to know which ones tricked you the most in the comments. Let's go!

1.This person honked several times, thinking this kitten would move out of the way, but nothing moved. Turns out, it wasn't a kitten. See if you can tell what it was:

A DIRTY SOCK!!!

2.How big do you think this Cookie Monster is? Better yet, what do you think it is?:

Abstract ceramic sculpture: blue wave-like form with a white sphere atop, set against a natural outdoor backdrop

It is actually a small cookie jar. What I don't get is how it is worth $110!!!

3.Tell us how wide this hallway actually is:

A long, empty hallway with tiled walls and floor, and fluorescent ceiling lights. No people or decorations are present

If you're having trouble, the bottom of the door reflects off the tile on the walls, making a straight line. And, if you're still confused, Reddit user u/WarmBaths explained, "If you zoom in to the end of the hallway, you can see that it just leads to a perpendicular hall, and the black baseboard is being reflected onto the hall's walls to create the illusion."

4.Explain the issue with the tiles on this floor:

Camouflaged white cat lying on a marbled floor, blending seamlessly with the pattern

The issue is there is a cat.

5.Has this person spotted a real-life dinosaur?:

No, the fingers on the ground should give it away. It is a person very impressively lifting their whole body off the ground by their arms.

6.Is this a snake or a cat or both?:

Just a cat! If you didn't know, cats are liquid.

7.And is this really a jumbo tron?:

Just an old TV! It is on a black table and close to whoever took this pic.

8.Here's a doozey. Can you explain what is going on with the boards on the left?:

Sliding glass door reflecting a wooden deck with a chair outside. No people are present

The boards on the left actually line up from top to bottom; the shadow from the roof just makes them look like they don't line up.

9.Is this person levitating a mini UFO with their foot?:

Person wearing a black shoe and sock, extending foot over a solar garden light at night

The light is actually in the ground. If you look closely, you can see the pole attached to it behind the foot.

10.These aren't roads made of timber. I bet you'll never guess what is happening:

Large stack of cut logs on a pavement with a puddle reflecting the logs; industrial building in the background

It’s just a reflection of timber in a puddle in the middle of the street...but it does look like squirrel nuts.

11.If you see a giant spider on the carpet, it thankfully isn't one:

Striped carpet with a large spider blending in near the center

It is a pair of glasses!

12.This bike hasn't sunk into the concrete:

Bicycle wheel caught in a small drain cover on pavement at night, highlighting a potential hazard for cyclists

You are just seeing it on an elevated step, the bottom half of the tire is covered.

13.This is not a volcanic island:

A small hole in a blue wall with chipped paint surrounding it

It is a hole on the wall that needs fixed.

14.Tell us which way this cat is facing:

A black cat is lying on a carpeted floor, facing away from the camera

Its face is toward the camera. Apparently, if you look close enough you can see its face, but I cannot.

15.And, finally, this is not a neverending cat slinky:

A ginger cat stretches its long body down a cat tree, with a small Shrek figurine in the background on a shelf

Cats, man! Shape-shifting.
