Imagine a rod breaking on a robot face - forever
Whenever I walk on a tiled floor with different colored tiles, I can't help but believe that certain colors feel different to step on and will avoid the tiles that don't feel "right" to walk on.

That is INCREDIBLY interesting. How does your brain tend to map colors to textures?

It's usually more of a light/dark issue than color, now that I think about it. Darker tiles tend to feel harder to step on than lighter tiles. It's not a terribly pronounced feeling and I don't always think about, but if I notice my feet are on different colors I feel ever so slightly like I'm putting more pressure on one foot than the other.
