here's another picture explaining the 'bent-pencil' illusion

it's not a continuous pencil youre seeing. rather the only part of the pencil you're looking at is the part aboe the lip of the glass, not behind any glass. The depth of your visual field ends at the outer surface of the glass, and you mistake the image (in this case, a penicl appearing to be disjointed multiple times) seen on that surface for the lower half of the pencil, noumenally existing below the lip.

Like I said please only respond if you completely understand the concept and either agree, or if you disagree please write extensively why in proper debate format.
