A Bug and an Optical Illusion

So, as I'm browsing the forums here on this site using the Internet Explorer app on my brother's Xbox One, an annoying little bug decides to land on my TV screen. In an attempt to get rid of it, I move the black cursor on the screen to get it to move. This
only worked a little bit, as it did move, but it never actually left the screen. So, I zeroed in on it with the cursor in the hopes that if I layed the black cursor on the bug, it would go away from lack of light from the TV screen. When I did this, the bug
virtually disappeared - being in a dark room, with a tiny bug and a black cursor had apparently rendered it invisible. The optical illusion is what happened next. I decided to move down the screen. Because I had the idea that the screen would move in my head,
I expected the cursor to move too and the bug to become visible again. However, it didn't. Everything moved on the screen except for the cursor and the bug, which I still couldn't see because it was hidden by the cursor. In my mind, space was moving, when
nothing actually was - I was being given the illusion that it was, but the cursor and the bug had not actually moved in any physical space. They were still in the exact same spot on the TV screen because the TV screen itself had not moved, I had only perceived
that it had. This may be a simple thing, but I found it profoundly funny and unexpected and wanted to share it with you.

What are some odd experiences you've had with bugs or optical illusions and your entertainment centers?

Trouble with sat comm location

I have not done the missions in a long time but a lot of the mcomms are hiden in little nooks that are optical illusions.

It's an optical illusion: push up bra + the lean back pose = photographic DDs.
