Community
The community of /r/whatismycookiecutter will often draw possible guesses, sometimes humorous and sometimes serious, in the shape of the cookie cutters posted to the subreddit. For example, in the above "human centipede" post, user ThrillShow drew a sloth,[3] which turned out to be the correct guess (shown below, left). User Vosmology drew a bunny chewing bubble gum.[4]
Additionally, a group of commenters have stuck to suggesting that every cookie cutter is one specific thing, which has made "Rose" and "Wyoming" an in-joke in the subreddit (example meme shown below).
