The rude detail in Sharetea’s logo you won’t be able to miss: The TV star notices a hilarious optical illusion on the sign of the popular bubble tea cafe
Comedian Em Rusciano has spotted an awkward detail in the logo of popular Australian bubble tea cafe Sharetea.
He passed a Sharetea while strolling through Melbourne on Friday and did a double take when he noticed the sign outside.
That’s because at first glance he thought it said ‘sharted’, a slang term for a wet fart.
He posted a photo of the store on Instagram, saying he “always” reads the sign as “fragmented” and now he can’t stop looking at it.
The optical illusion is the result of the second ‘a’ looking like the letter ‘d’ and the fact that there is no space between the words ‘share’ and ‘tea’.

Sharetea, established in 2012, has over 80 locations across the country and is one of Australia’s most popular bubble tea chains.
Bubble tea is a sweet tea that originated in Taiwan in the early 1980s and is popular among East Asian immigrants and the community at large.
Sweet milk tea is usually served cold with chewy tapioca balls, known as “pearls”, or other garnishes.
The bubble tea market size was valued at $2.4 billion in 2019.
