Today, my boyfriend and I broke up because we got into a fight over what color that confusing black and blue and white and gold dress was. FML

YDI for letting something so trivial become such a huge issue. Priorities, OP.

I can't believe this shit is going viral.

Uh if here to! No escaping this debate....

The fact that you posted this same FML about 30 times but worded slightly differently each time shows how either very fake this is or how desperate you are for a little attention!!! Ps I spotted all of this whist moderating

We are not supposed to comment on whether we think a post is fake or not, just incase your comment is removed, I wanted to let you know I agree with you. I voted no to 10 of these submitted in 90 min this afternoon and there were a lot more before I started counting.

Me and my husband just had a huge argument over it too lol I see white and gold. He said blue and black. He's f.ing blind!

Sorry, he's the one with better vision. If you google it again now there have been links to the dress online as well as other pictures from the wedding where the first picture was taken, and the better lighting shows it is definitely blue and black. (Also, I think if the person who posted the picture has said from the start this was at a wedding it would have been less of a debate--if it were actually white that would be pretty rude!!)

Seriously? How old are you? 13? You couldnt have had a very strong relationship if it ends because of that. YDI

Am I the only one who sees the dress as gold and blue?

I saw blue with gold mixed into the black

Me too. Baby blue and the ugliest mustard gold color. Then I saw an article with several pictures of the dress in different lighting, and now I only see black and blue. It's crazy how our brains play tricks on us.

YDI for having something like this end a relationship.

I'm seeing it as blue and gold and this is really stressing me out because I need an explanation as to why I'm seeing it differently.

i dont understand. what is the argument about? the color of a dress?

NiceGuysDoWin 21

It's a picture making the rounds on social media of a dress with weird lacy stripes across it. About 60% of people see it as a white dress with gold lace, about 10% of people see it as a baby blue dress with gold lace, and about 30% of people see it as a blue dress with black lace. It has to do with the lighting in the picture and the fact that the film was overexposed. the dress is actually black and blue, but most people cannot filter that exposure to see the real colors. it's a stupid thing to argue about, but everyone is 100% convinced that the way they see it is the right way and everyone else is just lying.

Holy **** that made it to FML really fast!

Am I the only person in the world that has no idea what dress everyone is talking about?

There's a dress going around that is supposed to be either white and gold or blue and black. It suppose to tell you how good your eyesight and what not is.

OK, I google the dress and now seewhat everyone is talking about, I just don't see what everyone is arguing about. It looks to me like someone is manipulating the color from picture to picture. So big deal.

I didn't until I was stumbling around the internet and saw articles explaining the dress and went 'what...dress?'
