Afterimage Memes

Your brain is currently being trolled by an optical illusion. Stare at this cyan-tinted landscape for about 30 seconds, then look at a white surface and—surprise!—you'll see a perfectly red afterimage. Your visual cortex is experiencing neural fatigue from the cyan receptors, causing the opposing color channels to fire when you look away. It's like your brain's way of saying "I'm tired of your scientific shenanigans" and rebelling against reality. Next time someone tells you seeing is believing, remember your own neurons are pathological liars.
