Welcome to NoSafetySmokingFirst!

For images where the text reads correctly left to right, but visual cues (like colouration, vertical proximity, or horizontal separation) lead you to try to read it top to bottom.

This is similar to, but distinct from, the more widely known “DontDeadOpenInside” format. In that case, the text reads correctly top to bottom, but visual cues (like colouration, horizontal proximity, or vertical separation) lead you to try to read it left to right.

'Cause if I was a man, I'd be the man

For anyone struggling

That middle part is even worse than all the other hilarious rubble that's being posted here.

If you followed the order left to right and read it line by line it'd read: "Cause if I was a then man I'd be the man." The first "man" is not directly following the "a".
