Okay, so today I messed around with this thing called “grandpa phil.” It’s basically a goofy, kind of messed up image filter. Sounds simple, right? Well, it kinda blew up on the internet, so I figured, why not give it a shot?

First, I had to find this thing. Turns out, it wasn’t some fancy app or anything. Just a filter on this website. No downloads, no installations, just straight to the fun part.
Once I got there, it was pretty straightforward. You just upload a picture – any picture. I grabbed a selfie I took last week. Then, boom, the “grandpa phil” filter does its thing.
And let me tell you, the results were… interesting. My face got all warped and twisted. Like, imagine melting a wax figure of yourself and then trying to put it back together. That’s kind of what it looked like.
I played around with it for a good hour, just feeding it different pictures. I tried a picture of my dog, a landscape shot, even a picture of a pizza. Each time, the filter churned out some new, bizarre version of the original.
- Uploaded a selfie – became a distorted mess.
- Threw in a dog pic – ended up looking like a creature from a horror movie.
- Used a landscape photo – turned into a psychedelic nightmare.
- Even tried a pizza – don’t even ask.
Honestly, the whole thing was pretty hilarious. It’s not exactly high art or anything, but it’s a good way to kill some time and get a few laughs. Definitely worth checking out if you’re bored and want to see your pictures get totally wrecked.

By the end of it, I had a whole folder full of these crazy images. I even shared a few with my friends, and they got a real kick out of it. So, yeah, “grandpa phil” – it’s weird, it’s a bit unsettling, but it’s also pretty darn entertaining.
