Quote from: AtelierGames on Wed 28/07/2010 19:54:17There's a tribe that only sees (or rather "classifies") just a few simple colours. For example, brown and blue are treated as the same colour (in some weird tribal speech). Anybody know what this tribe is called?

Joke of the year! (seriously)

What I meant goes like this:

I'll show you red car and teach that it's red.
There's two sides of this experience, what I say and what you see. You can trust me in saying it's red, but I cannot check if you really see something that I'd agree really is red. Maybe there's a problem with your eye preceptors? So you'd learn that something is red while other people seeing it through your eyes totally disagree on it. You might see green actually!

Neverthless, nobody will ever find out. Because questionable is only what you see, not what you call red. You call this car red, I do also, and both are right. 

But then, scientific analysis of your brain and/or eye might prove that you see it not correctly. I doubt science has evolved so far, but such seeing disorder is unlikely too.

Just a theory :D

I've heard the "omg what if the colors you see aren't the colours you see omg" idea so many times as a mind-blowing device that it's lost its potency for me. It seems a little silly, especially considering that if we're really in a Matrix-like computer simulation, it wouldn't even matter. Food for thought!

On topic: Cancer, Jersey Shore, and little orphan puppies with broken legs.

The Westboro Baptist Church. That's the main thing that's wrong with the world. That people like them exist at all.

well don't the WBC actually believe that they are being good people?

If someone *believes* that they are being good surely that absolves them of all moral responsibility?

Just food for thought.

They're turning kids into slaves, just to make cheaper sneakers.
But what's the real cost, cause the sneakers don't seem that much cheaper?
Why are we still paying so much for sneakers when they're being made by little slave kids?
What are your overheads?

A good example of what's wrong with the world would be the forums mentioned here:
http://www.somethingawful.com/d/weekend-web/

There's harmless stuff like freeballing and merely disgusting stuff like wearing diapers as an adult, but there's also an insane amount of racial hatred, conspiracy nuts and unlimited stupidity.

It's quite amazing to read how people exchange stories about what's so great about popping zits, how to prepare spells to make the unfaithful boyfriend stay limp when he's with other women, how the government manages to protect the great wall of ice (to us round-earthers known as south pole), or which brand of diapers is best for people who like to pee in them while lying on their backs.

There's also furries, people who think they are vampires, and teenagers contemplating what to pack for their journey to Digimon land.


Oh and, btw, if any of you is eating or drinking something prepared by their partner right now, consider the possibility that it contains menstrual blood and/or urine. Bon appetit.

I've been admiring the obscure Flight of the Conchords reference under your avatar for a while. If I hadn't lost my hat last week, I'd take it off to you.

Ha ha, thanks, and indeed you cracked my signature wide open, I'll have to go find another one now  ;)

I've been looking at that "Yes, technically I am" for a while going "Is that a reference?"

Hooray for clarity  :D

Also, I love dipping pieces of cake in milk before eating them, as one does with biscuits.

Putting two hard boiled cops together would make them super hard boiled and unstoppable

That's usually when the woman shows up and destroys their friendship. Hidden wounds, etc.

The world is a wonderful place! Cake, milk... biscuits!

Dipping that Golden Syrup cake bar stuff in milk is pretty fab.

Commercials. Usually 80% of the price.

Oh, and why shouldn't they turn kids into slaves when they turn adults into slaves?

For me, it's dipping panettone in amaretto. Yum! Do I qualify, Ben?
