I was convinced my chair was blue for 7 years – I listed it, now people are saying GREY… I don't know what to believe

A WOMAN has been left baffled after discovering that after seven years, the armchair she thought was blue is actually grey. Kristin was originally made aware of the discrepancy when she listed the chair online for free, with the person interested in taking it pointing out its actual colour. 6 Kristin took to TikTok to ask for advice as to whether her chair was blue or grey Credit: 6 She showed the chair in question in the video, with the overwhelming consensus that it was grey Credit: 6 She couldn't believe that the chair, and the sofa, weren't blue Credit: 6 She tried comparing the colour of the chair to two blue colouring pencils Credit: She "Is this chair grey or blue?" she asked. "Cause I'm giving it away to someone and I'm sending pictures and I'm like, it's a blue chair and they're like, that's grey. "And I'm like, I'm pretty sure it's blue. "And she's like, can you get more pictures? It's grey. And I'm like, okay, but my couch and my chair have always been blue. "But now she's gaslighting me and I'm starting to believe it!" She showed the sofa and chair in the video, as she wondered if it was her phone playing tricks on her. "Also I shouldn't be stressing this much over a free chair," Kristin continued. Most read in Fabulous "You either want it or you don't, but is it blue or is it grey? So I can tell her the truth!" "What colour is this chair?" she asked in the video caption. I furnished my ENTIRE home with Facebook Marketplace finds - my stools were free & I saved £1k on a farmhouse table set And pretty overwhelmingly, the consensus was that it is, in fact, grey. "I wasn't prepared for how grey it would be," one gasped. "I was prepared for it to be like a blueish grey, not full on gravestone of a child who died of tuberculosis in the 1800s GREY," another joked. "I wasn't expecting it to be the oxford dictionary definition of grey," a third commented. "That is so very grey. I'm so sorry this is how you're finding out," someone else said. To which Kristin replied: "I am actually crashing out!" What is colour analysis? Colour analysis is a tool you can use to determine which colours flatter you most. It's based on your overall appearance and particularly the colouring of your eyes, hair and skin. You are then assigned one of twelve colour seasons. Each colour season comes with a colour palette, specifically designed to harmonise with your natural colouring. According to a British study, there is evidence that suggests that the colours worn by a person can affect how they are perceived by others. For example: red and pink are thought to signal sexual attractiveness, particularly when worn by women, while dark colours like black or navy may convey the impression of authority - in turn making the wearer seem less approachable. The theories of colour analysis also teach that certain colours are capable of emphasising or, conversely, de-emphasising an individuals attractiveness to others. Unflattering colours may make a person look pale, for instance, or draw attention to such "flaws" as wrinkles or uneven skin tone. Flattering colours are thought to have the opposite effect. "Is the blue in the room with us?" another asked. "Your grey-dar is off hunny. It's grey," someone else said. "Bestie if you think that is blue, what colour is the sky to you?" another questioned. While someone else said: "Are you colour blind by chance?" "If I am I am only finding out now," Kristin responded. "That chair is so grey I forgot what blue is!" another laughed. As someone else said it could be that Kristin has a condition called Tritanopia, a blue-yellow colour blindness where individuals experience a reduced sensitivity to blue light, and therefore struggle to distinguish between blue and gree, as well as yellow and red. "Specifically, grey may appear as a very pale blue or blue-green to someone with tritanopia," they added. Read more on the Irish Sun Kristin tried to prove herself right by laying blue colouring pencils and blue clothing on top of the armchair, before taking some colour blindness tests online and referring herself to the doctor. "The butterfly effect is crazy because if the Facebook lady never questioned me on this chair colour, I'd have a millennial grey living room for the rest of my life," she wrote over the top of another video. 6 She also used a blue coat to try and figure out the actual colour Credit: 6 As well as pair of grey jogging bottoms - before reluctantly booking herself a doctor's appointment to check for colour blindness Credit:

We're identical twins and we're BOTH called Marie – people say it shouldn't be legal but we love confusing people

BEING an identical twin can be confusing - but imagine how it feels when you also share the same name. This is the case for Advertisement 2 A set of identical twins claim to have been given the same name by their mum and are both called 'Marie' Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk On their 'We are named the same.' The blonde sisters document their travels and life together online, where they call themselves 'twin explorers' and 'double the fun, double the adventure.' Many people were baffled at their claim they were given the same name by their mum. Advertisement More on twins One wrote: 'Is it allowed to be called the same? Like being twins.' Another added: 'God really said copy and paste.' And a third commented: 'Your poor partners gotta be soooo careful.' And one queried: 'I thought this is illegal.' Advertisement Most read in Fabulous In a video they joked that being a twin with the same name has some benefits , including the option of taking exams for one another. They are also able to prank people - including dates - who have no idea that they are twins.

Marie explained: "The problem is we have the same picture, name, date of birth and address. Advertisement 'You don't even wanna know how many problems come up.' Not only have they had issues with post arriving for one another, but also in school, where teachers had to call them 'Marie 1' and 'Marie 2' to differentiate them. 2 The identical twins share their travel pictures online Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk One person asked if they had ever shared their frustration with their mum for giving them the same name. Advertisement Marie said: 'Nope, we're actually thankful for the name.' They added that their mum also has no regrets about the name choice, but they said that it can be hard to feel like they have their own identities. One person replied: 'This would be the worst thing ever if one of you ever committed a crime .' The twins said in response: 'No it wasn't me.. it was Marie!!' Advertisement Another pointed out: 'So you can take each other's driving test??' to which the girls joked: 'Maybe.' What are the different types of twins? TWINS are when two children are produced in the same pregnancy. They can be identical or different, and two boys, two girls, or a girl and a boy. Twins are quite rare, but are usually born completely healthy What are the different types of twins? Monozygotic – identical twins ('one cell' twins) Dizygotic – also known as 'fraternal', non identical twins. Babies are no more alike than siblings born at separate times, and they can be the same or different sexes Conjoined twins – identical twins that are joined together. They are extremely rare, and it's estimated they range from one in 49,000 to 189,000 births, although around half are stillborn, and one third die within 24 hours. Can identical twins be two different sexes? Identical twins are always of the same sex because they form from the same fertilised egg that contains either female or male chromosomes. The single egg is divided into two separate embryos, and they occur in about three in every 1000 deliveries worldwide. Therefore, boy/girl twins are always fraternal (or dizygotic), as their chromosomes are either XY (male) or XX (female). What are Di Di twins? Di Di stands for Dichronic Diamniotic, and they are the common type of twins. They have their own amniotic sacs and placenta, so are just sharing the womb of the mother, and are therefore not identical. There are few complications with Di Di twins, so have a good chance of being born completely healthy without intervention from your doctor. Di di twins are more likely to be non-identical than identical.

I'm the world's most viral person for being a meme – trolls say I look like a granny, people I know are worst offenders

AN actress who played an Oompa Loompa at the farcical Willy Wonka Chocolate Experience has opened up on the relentless trolling she still faces - with some comparing her to a granny. Kirsty Paterson, 30, has enjoyed very positive publicity on opportunities in the year since the Glasgow event. Advertisement 2 Kirsty Paterson poked fun at her own viral picture Credit: Getty 2 Kirsty said she continues to be trolled over her appearance Credit: Good Morning Britan She's landed talkshow interviews across the globe, booked acting gigs and even makes money from fan videos. But she says becoming a viral meme has led to continued criticism over her appearance. Photos of Kirsty looking glum with a costume and green hair went viral after last February's flop. Outraged punters had forked out £35 for tickets only to be ushered into a sparsely-decorated warehouse. Advertisement And Kirsty - dubbed the 'sad Oompa Loompa' - was trolled for her part in the event, which was shut down by police. In a recent "Basically I did a really bad acting job, someone took a picture of it. Next thing I know I went on every single social media channel, news channel all over the world. "It was supposed to just be a bit of fun, extra money and I didn't think an awful picture of me would have completely changed my life. In both ways, good and bad. It's just been a wild journey. Advertisement Most read in Fabulous "Some of the constant issues I actually deal with [are] the trolling and the cyber bullying that goes on." She continued: "When I became a viral meme you get criticised for the way you look, you get hateful comments chucked at yourself online. Girl from viral meme recreates other trending moments "It can be a group of people, it can be an individual person. It actually comes a lot of the time from people you know, people you know in your past. "And this is something I experience every week. It was just the comments on my looks, saying I looked like an old woman, meth addict, told I need a facelift, I'll never get a man, I was ugly and that I should die. A lot of people told me to kill myself. Advertisement "This random person I was friends with five years ago who I don't even think about anymore and I've cut off for a reason. They just come back and when I'm doing better for myself, they are slaughtering my posts." Singleton Kirsty also revealed that "dating is very difficult" as guys think they can say what they want about her because of her viral fame. She added: "But I think all celebrities or some influencers or someone who's randomly became a meme all go through this and it's difficult. it's something I'm still getting very much used to. "And it's a big issue because I think everyone's maybe experienced this on some sort of level but I've just experienced it on a global [scale]." Advertisement
