I’m pretty sure you can still fly a plane even in black and white. WW2 pilots did. /s
Ohh I get it, they’re both wrong because there is actually no number visible!
I think I can make out a 21 with some squinting.
It’s a 74. But parts of the 4 are a different shade so you see 71 if your color vision is different.
so you see 71 if your color vision is different.
I have mild Deuteranopia and there is no hint of a 7.
21 or maybe 81.
Is it bad that I glanced at it and also thought it was 71, and had to actually consciously pay attention to the colours to see the 4?
Who the fuck thinks that’s yellow??
That 74 is kind of tricky and my vision is “normal”
This reminds me of a time I was taking one of these colorblind tests. The person administering it was flipping (way too fast) through the numbers and I was reading them fine. A trickier one came up which I could very clearly read, like this 71/74 one, and I said (because fucker was flipping way too fast) “71… no, 74 actually.” He marked it wrong. It felt like a real life Seinfeld incident after that where I kind of stopped the whole test and was saying basically, as nicely as I could, “hey. I said 74. Mark that correct.” MFer didn’t even vocalize a response. I can’t remember but I think he did like two more numbers, said I passed with whatever number of tests with one incorrect. I had to get my eyesight examined after that (this was for some pilot shit. Like a physical) and I told the doctor and he kind of shrugged it off too like “you passed it. It doesn’t matter.” IT MATTERS TO ME GODDAMNIT
Thanks for triggering this random traumatic event from over a decade ago.
Can I just tell you how much I hate those Ishihara tests? I don’t see shit in that OP one (which was exactly what I expected).
Once upon a time, Panasonic did a print ad for one of their new color printers that was a dot test that read “Panasonic”, with nothing else on the page. Not super-effective advertising - although I suppose color-blind folks weren’t necessarily the target demographic…
“I hate those tests because they do their job!”
Yes, they do.
I kinda hate them because non-colorblind people generally say one of a few things when conversations about them come up: “OMG do you really not see any numbers on there? It’s so OBVIOUS”, “Wow… so what color is this [insert random obvious thing]?”, or “So you’re colorblind? How do you deal with traffic lights? LOL”.
Okay I saw 21 but I am colorblind
If you’re being serious you might want to go get checked, because it’s possible you have some color blindness.
But they already said that they’re colorblind.
Doesnt hurt to get a second opinion
I apparently have reading comprehension issues. Ha. I have no clue how I missed the end of his statement. I think I read “am I colorblind.” Gotta slow down and read.
I have been checked, and I am definitely officially color blind. I’ve known this for years and there is no doubt about it.
