Forget Yanny and Laurel, what the heck is this toy saying?
The Yanny/Laurel debate divided the internet more than The Dress did a few years ago. It ruined more friendships than pineapple on pizza. It's facilitating more arguments than the American Chopper meme. It's tearing us apart more than Lisa ever did.

But let's be real: the Yanny/Laurel thing is already getting kind of old — isn't there anything else to talk about? When you log into any social media site, it seems like everyone's still arguing over whether that audio clip is saying Yanny or Laurel. The U.S. Air Force jumping in on the debate was the final nail in the coffin: Yanny/Laurel is a dead meme.
But don't worry, everyone! If you're on the hunt for a new mystery to ruin all your relationships, listen to this video: is the toy saying "brainstorm" or "green needle?"
If you heard "brainstorm," try thinking "green needle" and then listen again — you'll probably hear "green needle" this time. Now try it in reverse: think "brainstorm" and then listen to the video. You may even be able to hear "green storm" or "brain needle."
You can pretty much choose what you hear. It's wild.
Understandably, people are freaking out about this. One Redditor offered this explanation for why you hear what you're thinking:
Comment from discussion You can head "brainstorm" or "green needle" based on whichever one you think about.
OK, that makes sense. It's the most rational explanation. But u/syntheticwisdom said what we all feel:
Comment from discussion You can head "brainstorm" or "green needle" based on whichever one you think about.
After all, it's almost like we love memes like The Dress and Yanny/Laurel because we want to be divided!
WATCH: Yanny or Laurel? We asked around the office and fights almost broke out.
