Does this mean that if I showed you a picture of the Amazing Spiderman next to the Inredible Hulk, you wouldn't be able to tell which was which?

I reckon I would have about a 50/50 chance. Slightly more if they were wearing name tags.

Also my Dad did actually drop me on my head once, but my eyes were probably spazzed out long before that.
can I play with magnets?

Some boffins did a bunch of tests in the 30s on south sea islanders to see if their perception of colour was any better than that of europeans. The theory was that theirs would be better becuase they were less evolved than the white man, therefore still had more acute senses for hunting and that. It was to do with eugenics. But they found they all had the same discrepancies between recognising different colours as us, so that was the end of that chapter.
I played Bubsy for many hours myself, and there is actually a higher place you can get to in level 2.

I thought we'd all watched that same programme, due to hivemind.

It would have been a better story if the natives had been found to be inferior, and they torched the island, which then sank.

I got 202 on that test. They should have made it easier by not having the colours all dance around and change like the lightbulbs on top of some 70s vision of a futuristic computer.

Do we even know if anyone sees colours the same? Is my 'yellow' Murray's 'puce'?
i used to wonder about this, but then I thought that if this was the case stuff like camoflage probably wouldn't work, and people would go round wearing colours that clashed madly like the early 1990s.
Yes, and someone would like my poo brown was cornflower blue, and paint the dining room the colour of shit.

Yes, your dad only did that in 2007 whilst, ironically, giving you an 'airplane'.

I am colourblind, by which I mean I would have sex with a black woman like Beyonce. Not one of the ugly ones though.

I got 8 but my laptop screen is quite old and yellow with jank so I am happy.

For my will is as strong as yours, my kingdom as great... Damn. I can never remember that line.

What if the jank helped your score rather than hindered it? What then for humans?
