No mention of viridian, a blueish green, in these comments, I see.

[–] kameecoding 12 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Viridian sounds like it should be a red

[–] I_Has_A_Hat 4 points 6 months ago

Viridian sounds like a character in a YA fantasy novel.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Ah, then you might be thinking of vermillion, which is an orangey red.

My favourite letter is V. This is likely as a result of one of my favourite childhood games; VVVVVV. Main protagonist?

Captain Viridian.

I could never forget about the existence of the best alternative to turquoise.

Childhood? Surely not, VVVVVV came out in 2010. That was basically yesterday.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Yes, childhood. I was, like, 8.

No no, people were children before the late 2000s. It can't possibly be that an entire generation has grown up since I left high school.

God, and you're a full-blown adult now, fuck me.

Veridian Dynamics we can even make radishes so spicy that people can't eat them, but we're not because people can't eat them, Veridian Dynamics, Food. Yum.

Spelled different, but seemed relevant.

I looked up "veridian" and found out it's spelt "viridian" so maybe that's the true Mandela effect at play here!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Yeah, I was going to say it might be because people associate it with veridian, but I'm late to the party.
