Everyone seems to have a view.
Look, we all remember the dress, right? That was pretty big.
Your mate talked to you about that. Your mother talked to you about that. Your granny talked to you about that. It got about talked about a lot by people across the world. A lot of shit was chat about whether a dress was blue or black or white and old.
Well, we regret to inform you that we could now be looking at something of similar proportions again.
Let us explain. See, in an audio clip recently uploaded to Twitter, you can hear a male operator saying one word – but it’s not just one word, because some people think it is one of two. ‘Laurel’ or ‘Yanny’.
That’s one word being spoken but with two interpretations. Sheer madness.
Listen then pick a side, here:

“I hear ‘Yanny.’ The sound isn’t even close to ‘Laurel’…I do not hear the ‘r,’” one person tweeted.
“Laurel wtf,” another replied.
And the discourse only escalated from there.
