What color is your blood?

Take it somewhere else guys.

Like say space junk. Or Itza, move this thread to space junk. You have that power you know?

 

Why does this belong in Space Junk? It's a serious discussion.

 

Because you guys have left the real meaning of the thread behind, and are just arguing.

 

It's still on topic, and that's why I reverted back to the key points.

 

You're just doing this because I quoted all your "pure blood is blue" statements.

Yeah, I know this... And yes, it is a theorom, maybe you should learn your facts.

Yes, it can be interpreted in a number of ways, but seemingly 2/3 of the forum people knew I was talking about normal blood in the body or on a cut. No one talked about pure blood, until you came along.

You're the one who keeps insisting that I'm wrong and that I specifically called someone stupid, which I didn't. Your the one who doesn't understand the facts of this argument.
Why weren't you clearer on telling me if the hemoglobin would be there or not after being in a vacuum? Even if you take out the oxygen, it doesn't seem possible for it to ever be blue unless you put blue food coloring. Show me the link, or source, or whatever, show me a picture at least.

The question also doesn't ask what the color of blood in a vacuum is!

Generally, not specifically. Nikzad's avatar shows boobs... nothing of the sort?

This question is very different than the blood question... Even if you were to boil or freeze your blood, it would still be red unlike water's density. Your comparing the color of blood and he density of water. Color and density have nothing to do with each other! Your question is invalid.

It's like me asking you, is 60 Degrees Fahrenheit (15.55555555... Degrees Celsius) hot or cold to you? Exactly, many different factors.

Here's my answer... 1!!!

I fixed it Willy, are you happy?!!?!?

 

...Look at your signature.

It's calling 2/3rds of the world stupid based on how a video gaming forum.

And you used the wrong kind of your.

Hurr.

 

Hey Willy, you have some gibberish in your post, I think it says quotes? Hahaha! You're the one with the quote typo and not me.

 

Also, fix'd.

 

Hehehehe. Clever Willy, Tricks are for kids.

 

No, I'm just doing it so I don't have to repeat myself over and over and exceed the character limit. If you felt I did it to try and avoid any of your points, just repeat them and I'll be glad to respond directly to it.

So why do you keep going on about the question not asking what colour blood is in a vacuum? Or how blood doesn't occur naturally in a vacuum? I'm just talking about pure blood.

No, it's not. The distillation of water to get pure water is not a theorem, the electrolysis of bauxite to get aluminium isn't a theorem, and placing blood in a vacuum to get pure blood isn't a theorem. A theorem's a completely unrelated term.

And that makes my point invalid? No. Just because it's been discussed for a while it doesn't mean new points can't arise. My point is that there isn't a correct answer to that question.

Sig, dude. Sig.

Hmmm?

Never said the hemoglobin was removed, so why would you assume it was? Besides, I explained fairly simply that the only thing removed was the oxygen. I even told you that the deoxyhemoglobin was still present, which is why it turns blue.

I'm sure I've posted the link before, but I'll post it again.

It's absolutely possible, and stuff like that happens all the time in chemistry. It's not at all as simple as mixing paints or anything. Remember that the addition of oxygen changes the hemoglobin's chemical composition, so it will absorb and reflect different wavelengths of light. With oxygen, the hemoglobin absorbs all wavelengths except red, which it reflects, which is why it appears red. Without oxygen, the composition is changed and instead of absorbing everything but red, it absorbs everything but blue, which it now reflects, which is why it appears blue.

Here's the Wikipedia one, and here's another one if you don't trust Wikipedia.

Well seeing as it's not specifically asking what the colour of naturally occuring blood is, and it's not specifically asking what the colour of pure blood is, and seeing as naturally occuring blood is red and pure blood is blue, don't you suppose there isn't a 'right' or 'wrong' answer?

Boobs means sluts now? Think about that for a moment.

It may be invalid if I'm directly comparing the two questions, but I'm not. Both questions convey the same concept, but not the same answer or anything.

Many different factors, yes, but the same concept? No.

Now tell me, is that pure water or naturally occuring water. See what I'm trying to say now?

 

i voted red, i thought it was actually a metaphorical question, thought your post was gonna go "if you chose red, your personality is..." if i thought you meant literally i would've been confused about weather you meant pure or natural and wouldn't have voted until you explained.

it doesn't say "chicks are sluts" it just shows a body part, theres nothing slutty about it, that didn't even cross my mind, i think its your hormones talking...

so calling you specifically ugly would be insult, but saying that your whole family is wouldn't be?

 

I just had two very large nosebleeds in the past hour, making me light headed but knowing the truth to one teensy part.

Exposed blood is red, and very hard to clean off the sink afterwards.

 

hard to clean off the firepoker aswell >_>

 

Wow. Just not going to ask.

 

*Reads most of the above posts*

Ah man, all my forum buddies are ****s and hate each other.
This place is supposed to be an escape from Real Life.

Dogs' blood is black. Just ask one and they'll say black.

 

Never had much problem with that. And I used to nosebleed almost regulary

 

Only if you let it sit for a bit, as it starts to coagulate, and dry, if you run the water in the sink as you are having a nosebleed, it won't be much of a problem.

 

Right, because I showed you how many times you repeated "pure blood is blue".

Because you keep telling me that it doesn't matter if blood doesn't naturally occur in a vacuum. It does matter. Obviously no one thought about blood in a vacuum when they looked at the question. When you say pure blood, you mean blood from a vacuum, which doesn't naturally gey there.

Yes, according to dictionary.com, it is.

Well, no, not completely. But it's true that no problems had arisen until you came and said pure blood is blue. And now your arguing about things after most people have given their answers. Yes, there is a correct answer. If I meant pure blood, I would have said pure blood. Go and look at most of my posts around the forums, most are pretty thorough.

What do you mean hmmm?!?!? You don't listen to what I say!

Why would I assume it? Why would you assume I meant pure blood? You also never said the hemoglobin stayed in the cells. If you meant pure blood, did you mean just the red blood cells and hemoglobin? That wouldn't be pure blood since hemoglobin is still in it.

Well, when I get to chemistry in high school, I'll ask my teacher if we will do anything like that. Finally, you explain why it can turn blue. However, this isn't what the argument is about. It's about what the right answer is. no, I'm not changing the subject, the answer to the poll is what sparked this argument in the first place.

There is a right answer, red. I also didn't specifically ask what the color of pure blood was. Honestly, people reading this, can you please tell me if you, for one second, thought of pure blood, or blood in a vacuum.

I told you, this would turn into an argument about Nikzad's avatar. You make everything into a stupid argument.

They don't convey the same concept, if these two convey the same concept then so did my question.

And your question has the same concept?

That's totally different. The thing is that when you ask a question like that, someone will automatically ask you is it salty? Is it frozen? Is it pure water? But the color of your blood... no one thinks about pure blood or blood in a vacuum.

 

When I think of blood, I think of blood in your body that has oxygen in it, because blood is such a smear of so many different things, that even if you put it in a vacuum and suck all the oxygen out of it, there is still many different things that would make it "impure". Blood is meant to carry oxygen, so if there is oxygen in it, then it is still pure in my eyes.

 

In response to the original question of what color your blood is....

SURRRRVEY SAYS:
It depends.
