No Wonder Bust-A-Move Was Aggravating

How I (color blind person) see the world! (found at Digg)

Taking a look at this test in particular, roughly 92% of males, and pretty much every female should see all of those numbers. I can see the 25 clearly, the 56 if I focus, parts of the 29 and 45 if I really look at it, and pretty much a bunch of dots on the bottom two. Maybe some very faint green if someone else points it out for me.

Now I'm even less perfect than when I woke up late yesterday afternoon.

I vaguely recall being told about this colour blindness before, many years ago. For some reason, I remember it being at the same appointment where I got stabbed in the back 40 times (otherwise known as an allergy test), though I doubt that's right. It's never come up since then, so I guess it's not a big deal.

The Bust-A-Move reference comes from not being able to discern between the blue and purple bubbles at times, when the pace picked up. Though upon further investigation, my problem lies with greens and reds. So B-A-M's still just flawed.
