Splendid - I Laughed out Loud...

Moving this theme on, I wonder what should be done about these furry little fellows? : - Cats That Look Like Hitler! IMO, it should be an offence to have a politically incorrect fascist pussy [cat]...

The problem is with the photography and the kettle design itself. It's a graphic
'faux pas'. Although one can clearly see it IS in fact a kettle, the form does
indeed resemble a cartoon image of AH. If the kettle were turned just
slightly, or 3/4 degrees instead of straight on, you wouldn't see
Adolf at all, only a nice wee kettle.

The mind plays these visual 'tricks' all the time - including filling in what
is not there - but once the image is fixed in our heads, a comical
Hitler figure is all we can see. Though I do agree, this is
taking it way over the top.........

That is a lot of excitement over one little teakettle. Remember:
