They don’t make clothes like they use to, I pulled out a Old Navy puffer vest I copped in like 2012 and this joint is warmer than half the jackets I bought in the last 5 years that were 10x more expensive. I didn’t even realize old navy merged with gap/banana republic until I went to the website. All 3 companies were better when they were separate entities. Jcrew and brooks bros might well merge as well since they’re damn near indistinguishable at this point. Fashion in general has gotten super lazy here in Atlanta, damn near everybody just wears matching hoodie and sweats sets with timbs, tru religion hoodies or crop top with flare sweats/jeans and some asics, nb’s or a high fashion shoe that looks like asics or nb’s.

These 2 faces are the same color.

This will help. If you cover the faces and look at the bar, the shade of grey is the same color

 

[darthska]

These 2 faces are the same color.

Explain.

Magnets.

Ok so since we’re here, I’ve always wondered what the world truly looks like. What we see is a result of our eyes process wavelength of light, but that is how OUR eyes processes light. Some animals process light differently, for example dogs see color differently than we do because they don’t process all the wavelengths we can. So how do we know we’re seeing all the possible wavelengths? How do we know our eyes aren’t slightly changing things?? What does everything actually and naturally look like?

“Mantis shrimp are among the animals that see the most color, but there are other creatures that enjoy a dazzling kaleidoscope of pigments, too. Some species of dragonflies can see up to 30 different colors. They are also the animal that sees the fastest, perceiving the world at up to 300 frames per second! Honeybees also have great color vision and the fastest color vision in the animal kingdom. They can interpret colors five times faster than humans can. To bees, flower petals appear to sparkle and shift color, which signals an abundance of sugar to harvest.”

Gap has always owned Old Navy. They were actually "Gap Warehouse" locations that they rebranded. Gap bought out Banana Republic in '83 and there is a near zero chance you've ever seen a piece of clothing they sold in the few years they existed before that.

However, almost everything is disposable garbage clothing now. Just watched this video this morning talking about the topic:

Don’t think our brains would be able to handle seeing that many different colors at once

Eyes would probably explode seeing some jewelry that’s dancing

Sober November got me feeling like this

TBH, I'm not a heavy drinker but I like my couple of beers a day.

Random but not random but is anybody colorblind on here?

Yes, they are.
1 in 12 guys are colorblind, whether they know it or not. Mostly red/green colorblind.
I know I am.

Not trying to be funny but is NT black/red for you or is it a different color/hue?

Also what color is a stop sign to you?

We started talking about colors and eyes, now I’m curious

 

[robpzee612]

Remember the dress fiasco

Absolutely but definitely turned out people were being a **** head a lot of times and would say the opposite of what it really was

Visibility is a spectrum.
'Red/green colorblind' doesn't mean 'Can't see red or green.'
You can have 5 people who are red/green colorblind, and it will mean something different for all 5.

And like I said, if you're a guy, odds are 1:12 that you're red/green colorblind.

I struggle with super dark colors.
Like the Packers' jerseys are definitely green.
But the Eagles helmets? Without the context, like I know the feathers on the helmet, but without the context, they damn near look black to me, not dark green. I only know they're dark green because my mind knows who the Eagles are.

I struggle with black, super dark green, and super dark blue all the time.

Thank you and appreciate the detailed response. Never would’ve guessed people struggle with dark colors and thought it was usually can’t see red or yellow.

Eagles actually wore their black helmet tonight.
