      In the second clause, OP implies that an illusion is revealed when you rotate the image. As per the first clause, you shouldn’t trust OP.

      you trusted OP that there would be some hidden meaning that would be revealed after you mirrored it? NEVER. TRUST. ANYONE.

          I don’t trust them either. But I can’t not trust them unless I trust you, which I don’t.

          This feels like a variation of that two guard riddle except the warning is “both guards lie all of the time” and the two guards still don’t agree.

          Which is resolved by the riddle itself being the lie. Applying that here means we should do the opposite and not (never trust anyone).

          Now which way does that not apply?

          • sometimes trust anyone
          • never distrust anyone
          • never trust noone
          • sometimes distrust anyone
          • never distrust noone
          • sometimes trust noone
          • sometimes distrust noone

          They told me gullible was on the ceiling. It sounded preposterous so I looked up to show them they must be mistaken. They were! It was not on the ceiling! Yet they all proceeded to laugh at me!
