The Dress Debate: Black And Blue - Or White And Gold? | TODAY

[sjwdestroyer]

I miss the days where the biggest problems we had in this nation was what color a dress was.

[therationalist]

That was the greatest non-explanation I've ever heard.

[izavia]

I can only see white and gold. I think it depends on the angle of the screen you are viewing this picture from.

[QueenK]

I see Blue/Black i dont see how other people see other!

[anthonynaparala]

We had this picture brought up for a demonstration in church today. The pastor asked if we saw white and gold or blue and black. I was the only one that saw it in blue and gold.

Literally the human society:
Global Warming: meh
Waste Disposal: meh
Dress: WHITE AND GOLD

I’m trying my hardest to see white and gold but scientist say it’s just how people’s eyes are. Some people’s cones and rods are different

[roninwolf]

So have them do 2 things:

Run the original pic through some program to break down the colors, and try to recreate the effect with a second dress, and give a play-by-play breakdown of how said effect was achieved.

I mean, I can see how the black part is a bit yellowish / gold.

But definitly not white and gold

Anyone else remember when the internet debated harmless, quaint things like this, instead of stuff like The Mueller Report, whether or not our President committed treason, and fears about how to prevent Russian interference in our future democratic elections?

I remembered the dress debate and I had to come here. (Hi from the future/past.)

[Batya-Grace]

In all photos I see white and gold but in the video I see blue and black. I think it's a photography issue and how we perceive individually! This is why crime witnesses are always disagreeing at what they said happened!

[syrailemaitre]

It was the lighting. People just need to accept that it is blue and black even if they still believe it's gold and white.

[markthomas]

The doctors explanation was basically it’s the same stimulus but it’s being processed different. Brilliant!! Thanks Captain Obvious.

[wyeshahood]

i see blue and black when she was wearing it but in the picture I can only see white and gold

[RDavid-plis]

OMG the picture of the dress she posted was white and gold. Then the actual dress She wore was black and blue because it is a completely different dress. She is playing with y"all.

[nohandro]

When she’s wearing it I see blue and black but on the picture I see white and gold

[devvydoesstuff]

i used to see blue and black now i see white and gold

[kato_dsrdr]

Still convinced that the white and gold people were just trolling.

[tasdidrupok]

I am super confused
Everyone debating that if its blue and black or white and gold
But for some reason I'm seeing blue and gold
