Any of you out there colorblind? Do you regret being so?

What pisses me off about being red-green colorblind is when people ask you "OMG HOW DO YOU TELL WHEN IT'S A RED LIGHT OR A GREEN LIGHT?!" Okay, I may be exaggerating by how annoyed I actually get, but it does get on my nerves.

Although not being colour-blind, I could imagine that people are curious as to what those who are do see those colours as but to ask about traffic lights is just corny...

I sometimes have trouble with seeing the difference between pink and white.

I can't tell the difference between orange and green. I used too, but I've had multiple concussions, and one time I just lost that part of my brain.

YOU SAY WHAT?! I SAY WHA?!!!!

Because of my mild Dyspraxia I can never seem to tell which colours mix to make which.

Now those are odd forms of colorblindness.

If I'm colorblind, I just don't know it.

So, pardon me since I'm ignorant, if one is colorblind, well, let's use a stop sign for example. Does it just appear a shade of gray or what?

Well if it's red-green colorblindness, it would appear either red or green. I am not sure about being fully colorblind...

Fully colorblind people see in grayscale, according to my fully colorblind 9th grade English teacher.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Nah, no colorblindness here. Must suck to be asked about it by ignorant people though...

Nope, I'm not colorblind. At least not that I'm aware of...
