What are the odds that he lives in her house, maybe unemployed?

What a convincing argument. I didn't realize you had the authority to just decide.

It's an optical illusion. By definition their isn't generally anything YOU would call erroneous about any optical illusion, I'd guess. The fact that the text is difficult bordering on impossible to read at some angles is the perceptual error. Stop ignoring obvious interpretations to support your pedantic trolling.

That's an unhelpfully restrictive definition of illusion that is itself illusory. An illusion is also:

A sensation originated by some external object, but so modified as in any way to lead to an erroneous perception; as when the rolling of a wagon is mistaken for thunder.

The text is hidden or revealed through a change in perspective. That is the illusion.

How many knife fights have you been in?

How is a zig-zag numbering any less valid than any other method? Your mapping a two dimensional space with what is essentially a line. Sometimes it doesn't make sense for there to be discontinuities in the numbering, as one would have to do if the numbers always incremented in the same direction. Would you prefer that the numbers follow the path of a Hilbert Curve?

To answer your question though, surveyors have been using this method to number sections of land for much longer than you or I have been alive.

Knives suck as a defensive weapon though. I'd rather be robbed than be involved in a knife fight, even if I was the only one with a knife when that fight started. Carrying around a knife for defense if fucking crazy!

Whenever I'm forced to use windows, show file extensions and show hidden files.

Your privilege is showing if you seriously have never confronted the racist undertones of the white colonial idea of darkness. Just for a start "The Heart of Darkness", the dark continent, the epithet "darky". There's so many more it's often practically it's got own college class devoted to the subject.
