I love the way everyone was saying it was white and gold.
Until the science came out.
And everyone claimed to have always seen blue and black.

Sorry but it's white and gold. The white only gets a blue hue due to the ambient lighting.
And it never is black!

it’s clearly blue and black. and i will force-feed anyone who thinks otherwise seventeen of those turkey legs that your aunt carole would always make for the thanksgiving family potluck when you were a kid and they were always dry as a desert but you never had the heart to tell her that her beloved turkey legs are borderline inedible and are honestly a disgrace to not only the art of cooking but to humanity as a whole.
