    The sky isn’t blue, it just appears to be blue because of space.

      No, it appears to be blue due to blue light being scattered more than longer wavelengths.

      Like how we don’t say that blue glass is blue because it’s really just the light that’s blue?

      Appearing blue when looked at is what it means for something to be blue.

      If you’re gonna be that type of pedantic, just jump straight to “nothing has color but light”.

        Sounds to me that lemmings never go outside and converse with people. Damn people here are pedantic as a motherfucker. The only joke you know is the one staring back at you in the mirror.

          Or your joke was just so unfunny that it wasn’t recognizable as a joke and was mistaken for your honest opinion.

          If no one laughed at your joke, maybe it’s because it wasn’t funny.
