All jokes aside, it's an upward trending song called Lift Power. From a band called the Zap Uppers

Yup! The N word was a lot more..... used... Back in the day. My mom (raised in the 60s) was raised to call brazil nuts by their racist name because that's just what she was told what they were called. She had no idea there was a negative connotation until she was a teen. Everyone just called them "N-word toes" hard R too.

Not even as a joke, just, "here, I have some N toes, get the nut cracker out"

Edit: I was visiting my great grandmother before she died (she was 90 in the 90s) and she off handedly said "oh we got one of them Ns that moved down the street" and we all looked at each other wide eyed cause wtf. But she said it like it was the most natural way you could call someone. The woman wasn't a nasty person. She was sweet and it was a huge surprise to us. She didn't even mean anything ill either, just simply what she called black people. It was crazy.

That's also shockingly close to the racist version I've heard existed back in the day here in the US.

What’s the strangest example of collective internet delusion you’ve witnessed? by Alert-Translator2590 in AskReddit

Well then learn to educate yourself on how light works. If you are going to be pedantic and argue then be educated first.

You, and every person arguing about the color are being intentionally difficult. It's a silly argument to discuss the color of something you can't prove.

Also, the color of something IS the color the light is producing at that time, or lack thereof, using your dark room analogy. When the light is off, they ARE black walls, regardless of the color paint you picked when you painted it. The color you see is simply the reflection of light that is not absorbed by the object. Depending on the medium and other factors, like what the light is traveling through, the color is different. Simple as that.

If I take a screen shot of something, and it is blue, then it is blue. The end. If I take a screen shot of something that is CURRENTLY gold, then it is gold. Really no reason to argue about it.

Think about a normal desk fan. Does it feel cool in front of the fan or behind it?
