Since it hit Tumblr yesterday, the image below has started an internet schism that may never be healed. Some maniacs, it seems, see the dress as gold and white, while other completely reasonable people see it as blue and black.

This is not a joke. This is not a prank. This dress is blue and black but some people say it's not.

Buzzfeed even opened a poll to try to get to the bottom of this, and things are looking bad for the side of the sane:

In private discussions, Gawker staff have been unable to agree on the color of the goddamn dress or develop a workable theory as to why it appears different colors to different people. With that in mind, please take our own poll below, and remember, there's only one right answer (blue).
