Pressure plates that are placed on top of fence posts show in your face when the player is standing to close.
Steps to reproduce
Place down a fence post.
Place down a pressure plate (affects all variants of pressure plates)
Walk toward the pressure plate on top of the fence post.
Observe that you see the object in your face.
If you remember the button texture issue showing in your face this does the same thing.
