Still on Laurel/Yanny? No one has sent in the thingy with the slider bar on it, so Chemda can hear both? Maybe they did and I missed it.

I heard "yanny" so clearly at first, then with this pitch adjustment tool or whatever it is, I could clearly hear "laurel" and couldn't go back to hearing "yanny", and now, I hear either one, randomly. WTF. (This morning it was "yanny" again. Hi, Andrea!) The "brainstorm/green needle" thing was also weird, and in that case, creepy.

Brains, and how they perceive things, sure are weird and hilarious sometimes.

This article has the slider bar adjuster in it:

Very common. I believe it is now decreasing, and it can't die too soon for my taste. (This is probably due to the legalization of marijuana in some places.)

when you listen to the laurel/yanny clip, think of it pronounced like:
Yeah-knee
not
Yaw-knee

[Keith]

Oh YEAH-KNEE! Sure, definitely hearing that.

I'm a born and bred Londoner and would like to echo Keith's argument against Morrissey that we don't pronounce our Ts. A Londoner who does is trying too hard, BORIS JOHNSON!

I thought I voted no on this a while ago but thankfully I didn't fuck up the data.
There's a porn star named Colby Keller who I looooved (as one would love a sex celebrity) years back. I first encountered him in this movie where he fucks a priest and followed his career as he beame the IT guy and a ginger, artsy hipter fuck. I even met him and he was sweet.

Then around December 2016 he tweeted how he voted for Trump to "shake things up," because "Anarchy" was the only way out of our two party system. He went on in an interview in some magazine and just sounded like a fucking white piece of shit straight dude who took a philosophy 101 class and dropped out of school and figured out the rest from Tumblr. Complete fucking idiot who doesn't give a shit about what happens to the folk who made him famous because he can pass as straight and is attractive.
Haven't fucked with him since that trash
