All I saw was cheesecake boat and ocean for at least 5 minutes
@ElleGray There are probably dozens of model makers who want to know how you sculpt ocean waves like this.
@ElleGray Yup. I scrolled past this pic then came back as I was seriously puzzled at the ocean and boat configuration. Also, I now want cheesecake.
@BigGayShaun @ElleGray 😆 I asked my baker friend to make me a cheesecake after seeing this photo.
I’m pretty sure that’s actual ocean waves photoshopped onto the cake on the left tho.
@ElleGray And that's all I can see now, too. Damn it! 😀
@ElleGray this is my favorite Aivazovsky.
@ElleGray i want to go for a ride in the cheesecake boat
@molly0xfff I still can't unsee the ocean, and I'm still craving cheesecake. @ElleGray

@ElleGray, Elon Musk said: “Torturing AI is not OK.”

It's strange, every time Elon Musk says something, the opposite suddenly looks intriguing.

Should we try @altbot on this picture?

@stekopf The image shows a close-up view of the bow of a boat, with the ocean visible in the background. The boat's bow features a layered design, resembling a dessert. The bottom layer is a crumbly, golden-brown crust, similar to a graham cracker base. Above it is a white layer, possibly representing a cheesecake filling, and a dark purple layer, resembling a berry topping. The ocean water is dark blue with gentle waves, reflecting sunlight, creating a shimmering effect. The boat's bow is slightly worn, with some crumbs scattered on the white surface, indicating it may have been in the water for some time.

@altbot recalls the long tradition of painting boats like pieces of cake. Thanks for reminding.

The image is likely in the training data given that it is at least 5 years old

@ElleGray this is pretty dope.

Big up's.

@ElleGray

I thought you photoshopped a piece of cheesecake onto the sea

@RobotDiver @ElleGray
I think that's exactly what the 'shopper did to the original photo which looked more like a blueberry topping 5 years ago. Also there used to be more crumbs

@ElleGray Omg. Me too! 😂 I was very confused.
Sailing the Seas of Cheese - Wikipedia

@ElleGray lol the caption caused further confusion: “If it isn’t cheesecake what is it??” I was certain that was the ocean 😆
@ElleGray Because that's what it is. Prove me wrong!
@ElleGray this is the only rational explanation for Rose declining two perfectly good lifeboats. (Backseat car sex just isn't that good)
@ElleGray I was very confused for a second that I could taste a cake. while seeing ocean.
@ElleGray @catsalad My initial thought was that it was a boat on an ocean too.
@ElleGray is it not??
It looks like one of those pictures of a cake imitating a real life object, except it's imitating the ocean
@ElleGray The blueberry topping/sea is amazing.
@ElleGray
Cheesecake with blackberry topping
@ElleGray I... I can't see anything else

@ElleGray if not for your caption, I wouldn't see anything but the boat and the ocean
