Am I the only sane person left!? I am the only one in my family who hears and sees Yanny in a gold and white dress! Everyone else? Laurel in a blue and black dress! What is that!?

(#TeamGoldAndWhiteDress) Well, the truth of it is, neither parties were crazy. The blue-dressers were no more or less crazy than the Yanny-hearers. The audio clip really explored cognitive tendencies in…
