Colorblindness

Cool online colorblindness test:

Then tell me if the TFC pipes are yellow or green (most important question in life)

Unfortunately, however, you can't spell color.

It's much more interesting to see if people who claim them pipes are green are more often colorblind, cause a housemate of mine is colorblind and when I asked him what color his sink is (which is 10x more yellow than those tfc pipes) he told me they were green :P

Why do Americans use the messed up foot/pounds system and spell colour as color.

Also, i can sort of make out both numbers, but the ones non-colourblind people see are more clear. In number 14 i can make out part of 5.

It's simple why we use color instead of colour. It's simpler. Everything you ever wanted to know and even some things you didn't regarding the differences in spelling. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spelling_differences

As for not using the metric system for units I dunno. Guess we are stuborn.

I can't decide whether US will ever follow everyone else and go Metric. They would because it's smart... but they wouldn't because they're like AMERICA FUCK YEAH = stubborn.

Why does it have to be one way or the other? I'd say they are a bit greenish yellow. Simple.

I think it's safe to say pipe's are the colo(u)r of a filled 0-3 month baby diaper /nappy... aka baby puree.

Oh, and I passed the test with flying colo(u)rs.

that...or perhaps converting to the metric system would cost billions of dollars considering we would have to change measurement denotations on every single piece of equipment that requires it.

and by the way, its true that americans do whatever we want. yes we are stupid and yes we love killing each other. but if you can name me the last time Canada helped to improve the world in any way, i will give you a large cookie.

Housing me is the most important thing Canada has done. The Man doesn't know that they contain such a huge power within this innocent country, yet.

Canada didn't start a war over oil against the will of the U.N. and kill thousands of innocents.
