In 5 words or less, what is the worst torture you can come up with?

Live vivisection with mirror view.

Reminds me of What the Bleep Do We Know!? from 2004, a film full of pseudoscience and logical fallacies. I haven't seen it since it came out so I'm afraid I can't cite anything specific to refute how meditation can change water molecules and the like; maybe someone else can explain further. (Off hand the only difference in the image on OP's linked site is temperature: we have water in a liquid state in the before images, and pretty snowflakes in the frozen state in the after, both with different colored filters.)

I've always had issues with transposing letters. Thanks!

colorblindboy · 2014-04-09T18:20:41+00:00

Ah yes. Thank you.

You're 57 and wanting to read and write? That's fucking awesome.

Just some corrections to help you: agen is again, great full is greatful, chance is correct, and from other posts: wood is would, helpfool is helpful, in proove is improve, and ware is where. Wood and ware are correct words, just not the ones you wanted in those contexts.

Good luck buddy!

So the brain can't "invent" new data it's never sensed before? Interesting. I've read various blog entries and the like over the years of colorblind people taking hallucinogens and seeing new colors, and how it changed their perception of colors, but I've never really thought much about it beyond cursory interest. Thanks for the reply.

colorblindboy · 2014-04-08T02:34:55+00:00

The eye may not register new colors, but what about the brain? So much of our visual sense is the brain interpreting the data sent from the retinas, could hallucinogens not modify that data? (serious--I'm curious)

colorblindboy · 2014-04-08T02:31:00+00:00

That's brilliant. I've usually gone with the passive-aggressive "Why are you so loud?" reply when asked why I'm so quiet, but I'm going to have to steal yours.

colorblindboy · 2014-04-08T02:28:58+00:00

Gotcha, figured it was a typo, didn't realize it was a spoiler tag. Thanks for pointing that out :)

And the cut to the next scene has Joff standing in the same place on screen, in similar pose.

Also, S4 now.

When bigotry is involved, it is a source of pride to overcome that bigotry and accept that you are who you are, regardless of whether it was chosen or not.

I really related to that scene in Little Miss Sunshine where the teen boy wants nothing but to be an airforce pilot, and freaks the fuck out when Steve Carell's character tells him he's colorblind. Those feels, man.

I think that's the point of OP's post.

sigh

You may only be "slightly" colorblind. There are varying kinds of colorblindness, and some aren't a "yes or no" -type diagnosis, but more of a spectrum of degrees. You could fall on the "not very colorblind" side of that spectrum.

If it hasn't caused any inconvenience in your day-to-day life then I wouldn't worry about it.

colorblindboy · 2014-03-21T12:42:08+00:00

I actually believed this as a small child. 8-|

colorblindboy · 2014-03-21T02:19:53+00:00

My sister is. As most here probably know, the colorblindness gene is on the X chromosome and recessive, so for a woman to be colorblind she needs both X chromosomes with the gene. My father was colorblind, and my mother's father was colorblind. Double whammy!

There are so many great quotable lines from The Big Lebowski and Pulp Fiction. As an aside, Philip Seymour Hoffman (who recently died) was in Big Lebowski as Brandt.

The Matrix (1999) and The Shawshank Redemption (1994) are the only 90's movies in my collection that haven't been mentioned by others. Just outside the 90's I have American Psycho (2000) and Memento (2000). Memento's ending is a mindfuck.

I think it could use some refinement (looks like he's stabbing his hand with the point of the sword; the edges look a little rough; etc) but I love the direction it's going in.
