Something in the line of : Yahrryl ... lol

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

Yanny, though I appear to be in the minority

 

[Flannelman]

Gary. Clearly something is wrong.

 

[Dr Hook]

Yanny- not even a hint of Laurel in there for me. What a strange thing

 

[Absurdity]

Richard

Yanny

 

[GlenFeatherstone]

Laurel. But it could be Barzal at this point thanks to some here. I don’t know.

 

[Alicat]

Yanny.

I'm the only one in my office that heard Yanny.

 

[UConn126]

I hear Laurel...

What is this?

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

I listened to it yesterday and eventually started hearing “why am I attempting to give a s**t?”

 

[BruinDust]

Yanny.

I'm the only one in my office that heard Yanny.

My co-worker claims the first day he listened to it he heard Laurel. But now he hears Yanny.

 

[Rubber Biscuit]

I heard Yanny the first handful of times and then I heard Laurel

 

[lopey]

Every time its Laurel, my daughter hears Yanny...

[DarrenBanks56]

[DarrenBanks56]

[KrejciMVP]

This whole situation convinced me there are multiple realities and we all hear different things

 

[KrejciMVP]

Laurel

I mean how can anyone hear a Y ending at the end of laurel. Definitely a spooky twilight zone thing

 

[Absurdity]

Laurel or Yanny? The scientific reasons behind the viral sound illusion

Yeah I saw something similar and when they raised and lowered the pitch of the work being said, it totally different. F**in nutty

It was the opposite for me. My daughter played it and at first I “thought” I heard Yanny followed by what @Donnie Shulzhoffer said: “why am I giving 1/100000th of a crap about this at all” then I clearly heard Laurel

 

[KrejciMVP]

I wonder if all my friends growing named Laura pronounce their name Yann

After hearing my co-workers debate this again today, I moved onto the bolded as my final answer.
