    Yanny? Laurel? It's the fight that's tearing the internet apart. @StartHereABC talked to an expert to settle the debate—or at least try to explain it. https://abcn.ws/2L7xEAD pic.twitter.com/UyCqvFd6vI

        Its "Yanny" but if you keep telling ppl its "Laurel" so many times it will reshape your brain to hear Laurel.Its the old saying if you keep listening to the same lie repeatively it will become the truth for many. My take!

        Whether it's Yanni or Laurel is not a debate. Either perception is correct and there's a scientific explanation for it.

        It’s because we pay attention and give our time to stupid sh*t like this that we don’t have/take time to educate ourselves about more serious matters that affect our daily lives. Air & water pollution? Help for the homeless? Corrupt politics? The list gets longer every day.
