Today, I found out I have superior colour vision.
What have you felt pointlessly smug about lately?

Oh random bent southerner!
Why must I put down my bottle of what is no doubt BRUT and what is also no doubt some kind of bald hair gel or something to reply?
Now I'm putting my trainers on.
Another insight.

It's about discrimination between shades.
You basically get a load of colours and have to arrange them into a spectrum.
People with poor colour vision get them in the wrong order in certain regions.

What Porsche said.
The fact that you can see what you think of as green and what you think of as blue as distinct shades alone means that you're distinguishing between them, which many people can't.
My eldest brother has red/green colour blindness, which meant he couldn't join the RAF as he planned.

There used to be a rule in football in that
if it started to snow while the game was being played, they would change the white ball for a orange one, as the orange ball showed up nicely against the white snow.
However, if the snow melted during play, they were not allowed to change the orange ball back for a white one, and this caused problems for players with colour blindness as the orange and green are two of the colours that cause problems for colour blind people.
I suspect the rule has changed now.

That isn't a promotion.
It just means you've let yourself go a bit and they've had to reclassify you from "foxy" to "matronly".

I don't know what the bonuses for being a horrible sister would be...
I think you should wear a Nun outfit too so you can be Sister Sister and also only watch the late 90s Nickelodeon TV show 'Sister Sister'

Superior colour vision typically means poorer visual acuity.
Well done Captain Technicolour. You can't see shit. But at least you can't see shit in colour.

I haven't had an acuity test for a few years,
but when I last did I was normal/supernormal. I also normal VEPs.
This training is great, I get to do all kinds of tests on myself.
