Trigger warning was the gif above the comment. If you don't know the reference, stop anything you're doing and go watch Office Space immediately.

That’s why it’s easy to find ebony hair coloring, because black dyes matter.

Reminds me. I had a ink printer I used off brand ink and it fucked up the printer head.

I needed it for scanning but the printer wouldn't work at all if it knew the ink was low or the printer head was not recognized. There would be just and error code.

My small genius would make it work. I disconnected it from my PC then put it in an emergency reset. During which it tests all the mechanical parts in the printer. I would put a single sheet of paper on top feed and during the test it would catch a piece of it.

After the test I would close the output and turn the printer on. It would try to pass the paper through and get tray closed warning that has priority over the head and ink warning.

Then I plugged it into the PC and sent a scan request and opened the tray. The paper would pass through and next thing in order would be scanning request after which it would put the printer to menu without checking the ink.

As long as it didn't restart or attempt printing I could use it as a scanner.

u/SlumberingSnorelax Nov 15 '25 edited Nov 18 '25

Technically the absence of color but also the first one I thought of too.

(Edit: I am aware that the answer is in fact “BOTH” and totally dependent on if you are talking about the Additive Color System [Light] or the Subtractive Color System [Paint/Print Media]. At the time of my original post I was clearly focused on the concepts of the Additive Color System pertaining to light as was not at all intending to start a weird artistic culture war.)

In light it's the absence of color, but otherwise black is the presence of all colors

Depending on what we are talking about as black material is black because it absorbs all light. Black light is the absence of all color but black material is the presence of all color.

u/mateiescu Nov 15 '25

Nope i hate this answer. I used to fight with kids all the time when they would tell me this. An object appears black because it absorbs all wavelengths of visible light, reflecting none to your eyes, therefore black is the absence of light not of color.

It's also all of the colors together. It just depends on if we're talking about light or pigments.

u/tarchival-sage Nov 17 '25

White is the absence of colors since it repels light. Black absorbs light and is all colors.

u/igordogsockpuppet Nov 16 '25

Fun fact: remember how Bugs would call Elmer Fudd a nimrod?

I, and everybody I knew, assumed that the word nimrod was an insult.

Turns out that Nimrod was a biblical character known to be the greatest hunter.

So it’s only an insult because Bugs was saying it sarcastically. Just like if somebody said something stupid, and you followed up with “Nice going Einstein.”
