The night janitor at my old office in Boise looked at my 3am doodle and said 'that one has a face'

Back when I worked overnight shifts in Boise around 2019, I used to kill the slow hours drawing on the back of old printer paper with whatever pen was in my pocket. Around 3am one night the janitor, a guy named Ruben, stopped at my desk and pointed at a blob I'd scribbled that looked like a melting dog. He said 'that one has a face' and just kept pushing his cart down the hall. I looked at it again and he was right, the stupid blob had these two dots that lined up like eyes. I still draw blobs like that on purpose now just to see if a face shows up. Does anyone else have a doodle that only looked like something after someone else pointed at it?
