Personification

As I was surfing through the internet, I came across this unexpected picture of an ice cream.
This particular image amongst the rest of the images on the website is one that caught my attention. Maybe because it is different from just an regular ice cream, it has humanized features. The facial features is similar to a human being's and gives this inanimate ice cream human characteristics. Out of the many facial expressions that this ice cream could have, it has a horrified and "No I don't want to be eaten!!" expression which is what makes this image humorous.

Here are other examples of personification:
"Hold my hand"
