Color blind

Post by G. Keenan »

Apparently I'm color blind, at least when it comes to one particular shade of green. I was wearing a shirt yesterday that for the life if me I always thought was black. Turns out it is unambigously green.

I've never made this mistake before and never been told I was color blind in my life. Just two weeks ago I was at the eye doctor and took the color blind test and everything. No indications. Other than this one shirt I have no problems telling black and green apart. Weird and offputting. Makes me wonder if I'm mistaken about other colors.

It's safe to assume, then, that you have never seen/read any of The Green Miles posts? You don't even know he exists, do you?! Or are you .....him! :wink:

But is the shirt also gay and part of a duo of superheroes with phallic-shaped vehicles?

(Sorry, I couldn't resist, as I see the word "unambiguously" used so infrequently.)

I guess that would mean that for you, the GreenMiles is actually the BlackMiles? Homer Bush?

Wow, that's really interesting. Whenever I hear about color-blindness it's how the colors green and brown are ambiguous to people.
