That is weird!!

StealthPolarBear · 20/09/2019 10:48

I'm going to listen for green storm

recrudescence · 20/09/2019 10:49

Most interesting thing I’ve experienced in The Torygraph for a while.

StealthPolarBear · 20/09/2019 10:51

I can't hear the 's' sound when I think of green needle, even when I am trying to. Its very clear in brainstorm

Sunnysidegold · 20/09/2019 11:13

Ahhhhhh! This has just fried my head!

zxcvhjkl · 20/09/2019 11:15

Definitely brainstorm

AintNobodyHereButUsChickens · 20/09/2019 11:20

I hear brainneedle Confused

CharityConundrum · 20/09/2019 11:23

I heard green needle the first time but since then can't hear anything but brainstorm and can't even understand where the green needle came from in the first place!

BananaPlant · 20/09/2019 11:26

Both!

First time brainstorm, second time green needle.

StealthPolarBear · 20/09/2019 11:29

Banana run it again and listen for each separately on different occasions

ThanosSavedMe · 20/09/2019 11:31

Wtf

EmAreSea · 20/09/2019 11:32

I can hear both.

1984isnow · 20/09/2019 11:33

I heard brain needle, then brainstorm the second time. What is real anymore

1984isnow · 20/09/2019 11:35

Surely it's one of those toys that play different sounds in a pattern

Celebelly · 20/09/2019 11:38

I only hear brainstorm, even when thinking hard about green needle! Confused

bobstersmum · 20/09/2019 11:39

I can't hear brainstorm at all, it's clearly only green needle!

DinoroarDinosaur · 20/09/2019 12:22

This is so weird. The first time I listened I heard Brainstorm. Then when I listened a second time and focused on the words Green Needle, I heard green needle. I wonder if I listen a third and fourth time I could hear brain needle and green storm 🤔

DinoroarDinosaur · 20/09/2019 12:24

Ok...just tried brain needle and green storm, and they work too. How funny.

SoupDragon · 20/09/2019 12:28

Surely it's one of those toys that play different sounds in a pattern

In the article, it says that it's a toy "speaking" and it is programmed to say Brainstorm.

I would like to have listened without knowing what I was listening for. I heard brainstorm but that might be because it appears first in the title.

onlyjustme · 20/09/2019 12:39

Well I heard brainstorm, green-needle, brain-needle AND green-storm.
That is just bizarre!!!!
Confused

Celebelly · 20/09/2019 13:03

Dp only hears 'brainstorm' too Sad We are broken

1Morewineplease · 20/09/2019 17:53

My world has just gone topsy-turvey!
If I think and say ‘green needle’ I hear that. If I think and say ‘brainstorm ‘ I hear that too! No matter how randomly.. I hear what I’m thinking.
Need a lie down...
