I knew it was a colour blindness test because they wouldn't let me do one at school lol. I just thought it was because the number it is isn't an option for an answer lol.

I can never see those things Laughing

Has anyone ever done one of those online IQ tests and got anything below the maximum? I get the maximum every time, and so do all the people i have on facebook who put stuff like that on their wall. Surely we're not all 160 IQ geniuses Shocked

Found a post about that advert ... and the reply made me laugh even more.

Good spot Silky.

It is a truly retarded advert, but to implicate some conspiracy to make colourblind people look stupid is harsh.

That said, I've not met that many colourblind Nuclear Physicists? Thinking

Maybe they're on to something.

I did find something they are bloody good at though (to make up for the hilarity of watching them play snooker), finding camoflagued things. If you're colourblind, you can get work in any diveshop you want, because you can find and then bother octopus, frogfish etc.

Damn right! I worked as a Divemaster is Thailand, and I was always the first to spot stonefish and octopus and the like...

Always a good thing if you want to avoid a nasty sting Thumbs Up

Where did you find a dirt bike? Best i could find there was a supernova. Annoying as it was the only island where you actually need a dirtbike. Though i did learn that getting a mate to sit on the back helps traction even when the tires are bald Laughing

I had a 'Mushroom shake' if koh phangan. It was basically a pint of blended thai mushrooms, it took ALOT of effort to drink that and they weren't even very strong Laughing

There is a bike shop run by Germans at the top of the main road off the boat! Great selection of 250cc 2 and 4 strokes plus some quads. You definately need a dirt bike on Tao - but saying that I did often see whole Thai families (5+) on a single 50cc scooter! Laughing That takes some skill on those roads...

I had a few mushroom shakes on Koh Tao - that stuff is dangerous - I have never been so messed up in my life!!

It might be me, but I got really close to the screen and looked and I'm pretty sure I faintly saw the rest to make out a "4" rather than"1"

Could just be me hoping for it Laughing

I'm colourblind, I get certain shades of colours mixed up, mainly, brown and green, red and orange, blues and purples and yellow and green, I can't play snooker either unless Someone points out the green, brown and red balls ( when the overhead light's turned on I can't tell the difference )...

My Cousin is worse, he can't tell the bifference between blue and black for a start and my late Grandad apparently only saw in black and white...

Not overly interesting, but an old workmate of mine was a huge Aberdeen football fan. He had red/green colourblindness.
I always wondered what it must be like, especially on TV (given that I knew him back before big screen LCDs were common in every house.)
