	In my old fandom, there was a days long flamewar over one person calling the sky grey or some shit and others taking mortal offense. It was... interesting to watch. To this day I'm not sure entirely what the hell was going on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maybe that's what I was thinking of. I visited that board a few times, and some of the denizens scared the life out of me. (Reply to this)(Parent)

Ahaha, that was probably the IRC thing I was talking about above. What it was that one person (you could probably guess who) was saying the sky wasn't actually blue, it was black and we just perceive it as blue. Other people took offense to this. I think I came in about 15 minutes into the conversation, blinked and laughed my head off. And then I think they redid it a year later on the messageboards.

	oh dear me. I think, I think, the second fight started because one girl looked out the window and was like 'actually, it's grey today'. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	"The sky was the color of television tuned to a dead channel." So, solid azure blue, right? (Reply to this)(Parent)
