Laurel or yanny?
 
The new what colour is the dress debacle. Some people hear laurel some people hear yanny. I definitely hear laurel and I saw the dress as blue and black I asked my wife what the word was and she heard yanny but saw the dress as white and gold. So just wondering what word you hear and what colour you saw the dress :shrug:

already a thread for this, but i definitely still hear Yanny

First time I listened I heard Yanny, then I listened on my phone later and heard Laurel, then I listened on my computer the next day and heard Yanny again :skull:

The dress i saw white and gold first but that one definitely depended on the picture and what angle you looked at it from :think:

There's a tool somewhere that you can use to adjust the pitch until you hear the other one. I couldn't hear "Yanny" at all, then used the tool, and now in the original I can alternate between hearing both and it freaks me out so I had to stop :bawling:

This one is definitely more weird than the dress one I think

Has anyone heard this one today??



Green needle or brainstorm

This one is weird, whichever you hear you can make yourself hear the other by thinking of the phrase

Exactly the same as me Niamh...you can switch between the two easily by just thinking what you want to hear

Yeah, I can do that with "Laurel/Yanny" now but I had to see the tool that allows you to clearly hear both first. It's like... once you know what you're listening for, you can make yourself hear it at will, and flip back and forward between the two. It's a really odd feeling though, inside my brain... :worry:

green needle is what i hear

You can do that with the laurel/yanny one, you've just got to alternate between focusing on the higher and lower pitches

I tried but I just cannot hear a "y" sound no matter how hard I try

I heard yanny and thought the dress looked white and gold.

I hear this as Green Needle clear as day, not even close to brainstorm even when I tried to hear it as much as I could :think:

What's the Lauren/Yanny one? I haven't heard about it. But omg the dress thing from a long time ago got so exhausting :joker:

JerseyWins 18-05-2018 01:44 PM

^ Tbf it kinda sounds more like brain needle than green needle
