Ok. So this is kinda compacted. I was thinking that maybe we don't all see colors the same way. Maybe when I look at Red I might see it the same way another person sees Blue but we both call that color Red because we have always been taught that. How could we ever kno if somebody else sees colors the same as we do? Am I making any sense? Haha
Is the color thing supposed to be some sort of analogy? Or are you just saying that people see colors differently? Because I know that's true...When I look at something pink, my dad perceives it as yellow I bet all humans see colors differently...

Its a strange thought kinda
That just seems really unlikely to me. All humans are almost the same biologically. It would just be too abnormal for us all to see different colors.

Some people can see better than 20/20. Our eyes do not all see the same. How could we ever kno if each other see colors the same. I am not saying your wrong. I am just saying that I think it could be possible. No way to kno really
If you think about it, we could all even perceive chairs differently, or the sky, or the taste of cheeseburgers. Oh man, I love thinking about stuff like this, especially with the help of a few unmentionables.
There are many different types of color blindness that cause people to perceive colors differently,but I doubt the entire world population perceives color different from normal.
haha i always thought about that exact color thing when i was really young prob 5 or 6, does that mean i was a stoner before i even started smoking haha?
Some colors seem duller when others say they are brighter and vise versa with me. I always thought I saw certain things a bit differently than others (not just with colors either)

[quote name='"DuncanTokes"']Then explain ROYGBIV. This thought works until you question the color scale and shading.[/quote] ROYGBIV would still apply because we would both still all red red. I just mean maybe we don't see red the same. And the same with OYG and BIV
[quote name='"SmokeyH"']yeah, thatss a classic stoner thought[/quote] I agree. I thought this years ago all stoned with my best homie. I just thought it makes an interesting thread. See if other people agree or not
No you're wrong, if we saw different colors but labelled them the same, the shading and order of shades would be different. ROYGBIV is an order of shading, and it wouldn't be in order if people saw colors differently.

Im not understanding what shading has to do with it
honestly we probably see 99% of most things the same, because we are biologically and physiologically the same.....so the similar structure of our bodies would produce similar perceptions... however we do have different eye colors, so maybe people with green eyes see things a certain way, as do browners and blueeyeders
