Today, I had to explain to my friend that the world did not used to be black and white. It was just the pictures that were. She still doesn't believe me. She's eighteen. FML

K, just wanna tell you that most of the colours back then came from nature.... Aswell as mostly faded because they were still coming up with them...

It was black and white back then. People used to walk faster and more jittery and there were little vertical grainy lines that would suddenly appear too.

Tell her that it actually use to be black and white and that it only changed to color because of the trix rabbit.

It was actually the legendary god of Skittles that rained down from the sky and colored the world.

What you fail to see is that you've all been misguided by the one you call 'Trix Rabbit.' It's all a farce, created for the sole purpose of stealing your breakfast. I understand it's hard to accept but...I'm here for you. Together, we can embrace the Rainbow. And maybe... one day, even taste it.

No! It all began with the great leprechaun! In the beginning, he first created the hearts, for each person to feel the love of his cereal! Then the stars to gaze up at in wonder! Then the horseshoes for our mounts do that we could interact over great distances and establish complex societies! Then the clover to bring us luck. Then blue moons to fill the night sky. Then pots of gold and rainbows to guide us to the gold. And finally the red balloons because face it, no matter how old you are you still ******* love red balloons.

Nowadays people move in slow motion, and explosions and romance has increased dramatically.

Here's how to prove her wrong: 1) get Stewie Griffin 2) have him help you to build a time machine 3) go back to WWII
