Today, I spoke to my hormonal pregnant wife about baby names. I told her I liked the name "Tabitha", and she went into a full rage about how all letters have textures, colours and emotions and how T is an evil letter. Apparently it's orange, plastic, and a needle trying to stab her eyes out. FML

In the sight of the husband:
"You have got to be kidding me! We have 7 more fucking months!"
Wife: "What was that?"
"Nothing, dear. I love you... Please dont hurt me..."
All kidding aside, op must really love his wife, and is probably trying really hard. I give a big round of applause for Op.

There's actually a psychological disorder called Senesthesia that causes reactions like that. Where numbers are colors...... Ect.

177, synesthesia is not a psychological disorder, it's a neurologic particularity. Some connections in the brain that remained when they get erased in most people's brains. In fact, everyone has synesthesia when they're still a baby.

Sounds like sensasia - I believe that's the name for the disorder where you perceive numbers, letters, sounds as something they are not such as color

Synesthesia is the word you're looking for. Synesthetics experience senses that are very strongly linked, like tasting colour or seeing sound. I taste sound, myself.

There's a similar one where some people associate letters and numbers with genders as well. I have the gender one and my best guy friend has the colour one xD

Also Synesthesia. There's over a hundred different types; it's a cross-wiring of any two 'senses'? The gender form is a muted form of personification synesthesia, in which various letters/numbers have personalities. The colour one is grapheme->colour, one of the more common forms.

It's definitely not a disease, it's a neurological condition. It comes in many forms, and is not dangerous, contagious or harmful.

It has to do with two parts of the brain being "connected". When you see a number or letter, the part of the brain that responds to color, or sound, also responds. This causes numbers and letters to have a "color". Some people also "feel" when they hear music. No one knows what causes it, it just happens to some people.

a) omg everyone stop calling it a disease for fuck's sake. words have meanings.
b) actually they've done quite a few studies on it and found that the reactions are completely consistent, researchers are pretty much in agreement that even if they can't find exactly what causes it or see it in brain scans it's definitely real.
c) it's really not that trippy. it's just there. absolutely nothing like walking around on an acid trip or being psychotic.

It is not a disease. And no it would not be anything like an acid trip to these people who have it because it is normal for these people. They have had it for their entire life.

158- 4 is definitely pink- and fuzzy! But 8 isn't green- 7 is! He's mean and prickly too. :/ 8 is blue to me. 3 is butter yellow, and 6 is silver.
Seeing a fml about synesthesia totally made my night. :)

Yes, although I don't believe it's a disease, it's just your brain has somehow coming to associations. Granted it is an abnormality but I don't know that it's caused by anything or is adverse in any way. You can also make associations with sounds, textures, feelings, vibes, concepts, shapes even I bet... I have it, for example A is red, B is blue, and C is cyan, 1 is white, 2 is blue, and 3 is green.

It sounds similar, that he would have an emotion for a color that he'd attribute to a person. Does he give colors to absolute strangers or does he have to meet them first?

Wait, those are actual conditions? I've always imagined letters and numbers as having genders and even personality traits. Then again, I've always had a pretty wacky imagination and way of thinking so maybe that's why.

I have a tiny case of it. But yes, it makes everything weird. For me, each letter has feelings. It's weird, but I'm really good at writing because of it.

I can't blame her for disliking the nane... Tabitha sounds like a cat's name, not a human's. If it is a human's name it sounds like it would belong to a snarky Gothic chick.
