I never really understood the debate. In reality, if you were standing in front of the dress it is black and blue. Now, if you take a digital photo of the dress and post it on the internet as a terribly compressed jpg, with weird white balancing, and brightness/contrast turned up and down it is gold and white. The debate isn't really about the reality of the color of the dress but the reality of a badly edited photo.

That sums up the entirety of the content on a number of popular subs on the R-word site.

Confusing perspective? No. More like confusing JPEG artifacts.

You used to be able to report shit for not being confusing, but it was placebo at best. That site sucks so much.
