It took me probably 3 seconds to realize it was a mirror and that I was trying to pass myself (meanwhile, one of the employees who was sitting next to the mirror was giggling loudly while profusely apologizing for doing so; not my proudest moment).&lt;p&gt;The cognitive weirdness was that during those 3-4 seconds, I genuinely did not recognize the person as being myself. It was a kind of out-of-body experience.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>What Do Animals See in the Mirror?</title><url>https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2017/02/what-do-animals-see-in-the-mirror/516348/?single_page=true</url></story>
