I remembered songs from the overall color I got from them.
And I hate the way certain words look. Meal being my least favorite word ever because of this, followed by panties.
I didn't even know it was a condition until I was 14.

What a strange condition! So when you think of the name Stephanie, you get a mental image of the reddish-purple colour or do you just think of the colour everytime you hear that name? Does shortening the name to Steph give you the same colour?

I knew a guy who said he had a condition where he would read a sign back to front or smtimes when he was listening to people speak he would involuntarily get the words of the sentence mixed up, either confusing him or amusing him.
