Random Thoughts....

Wow, I never expected that. Usually I'm quite good at these sort of things. I noticed that Punkt was unusually free-spirited for a person of his age before he told everyone he was 13 and darkshark is actually British. I've always found it easy to get the jist of someone's personality I never met. But that... just took me by surprise. I suppose it makes a bit of sense now that I think about it.

I am actually a lesbian.

I just watched Quantum of Solace for the first time. To me it felt like something was missing; it didn't have the depth that Casino Royale had and wasn't as powerful or moving. It didn't stick in my mind and flash scenes from the movie all day.

Right now, I'm playing Ratchet and Clank and my mind is free of Bond.

It was boring, it was just like any other action movie. I doubt people will even remember it was a Bond movie.

Yeah Quantum of Solace sucked. Real shame to see it ruined again after the brilliant Casino Royale.

I may have thought of a way to test for maybe both of those. A person who sees a color or hears a sound different than others and if it's all due to the wiring in their brain would most likely have a different emotional response to the color or sound compared to a normal person. Red is a danger color it's a warning to stay away or look out, if someone perceived red as blue they would most likely have calm soothing feelings when viewing that color as opposed to the normal danger reaction.

Ah, but that assumes that responses to color are hardwired in the brain and not learned responses. Actually, even if the response was hardwired, it could be wired so that even if red is perceived as someone else's blue, it still elicits the danger response.

Eh, I thought it was better than Casino Royale.

None of this sitting around in the shower crying bullshit, and the movie ended right when it should have ended, instead of droning on and on and on and on.

I've been overcome by this urge to get my tragus pierced. Oh no.

Nah, piercings are teh lame. Inserting ink into the layers of skin is what the cool cats do.

I did enjoy Quantum of Solace, not as much as i did with Casino Royale but i thought the film was entertaining enough to keep me interested in what was going on. plus it also has Gemma Arterton and Olga Kurylenko in it and that's enough to keep my interest in a film anyway.

Just the comments?

 

[Quiky]

Just the comments?

I just ran a rep-rebuild, so everyone's numbers have changed..

I was tempted to delete that user's posts, but naaah.. Not feeling that evil right now.

 

[Polly]

Mr. Quiky sir, what happened to your rep power? Wasn't it like 200-ish a few days ago or am i mistaken?

Red is a danger color it's a warning to stay away or look out, if someone perceived red as blue they would most likely have calm soothing feelings when viewing that color as opposed to the normal danger reaction.

A good thought but I believe we learn to associate colors with feelings based on the world around us. So if your entire life you saw fire as what we think of as blue (your typical fire I mean, some things do burn blue) you would associate that color with danger. If you perceived the sky and water to be red you would associate that more with life and tranquility rather than danger. If we are hardwired to understand red = danger before we ever open our eyes then I suppose this scenario would only hold if the anomaly caused the specific person to be hardwired that blue = danger.

What is interesting, assuming there isn't a test for this, it would mean there is no evolutionary dis/advantage if you saw the colors differently which would lead to the trait being passed along through generations. Which could mean we are all living looking at slightly different colors. Although if you are correct the trait would likely have been eliminated long ago.

It is more difficult for me to think what a remapping of notes would cause one's life to sound like and how that may/not effect your life.

I doubt any of this is actually true but it is an interesting thought experiment. Maybe someday advances in neuroscience will clear it up.

Actually I don't really think it is a medical question at all, or a question medicine/science could answer.
It is much more of a philosophical consideration about perception itself, if we all actually perceive things the same way, or if everyone may have his own little world he sees...
