Today, I failed hard at a color test. I thought it was a joke because most of the colors looked the same to me. Now I know why people laugh at my clothes color choices. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found one of those online color blindness tests where you have to distinguish a colored number from the pattern. Not being able to, I spent hundreds of dollars on medical tests to discover that the pattern online was a joke. FML
Today, I failed a Rorschach test. How do you fail a Rorschach test? WTF. FML
Today, I tried to dye my hair blonde. Turns out, green hair doesn't suit me. FML
Today, in an effort to save money, I dyed my hair at home. I used the wrong shade, or brand, or maybe I shouldn’t have bought a cheap one, but now I look like a mutant traffic cone. My boss asked if I was “expressing myself” or “just having a midlife crisis.” I can’t afford to fix it, so I’m stuck like this for weeks. FML
Today, I thought it would be fun to tint my hair. An hour later, I resemble a blueberry and it looks like a Smurf exploded in my bathroom. FML
Today, after passing various interviews and tests, I was given a great job pending a pre-employment medical test. Now I'm jobless and colorblind. FML
Today, I decided I wanted to dye my hair a medium brown. Little did I know, some jerk switched the hair dye boxes. My hair is now bright orange. FML
Today, I tried doing a hair dye at home for the first time. I misread the instructions and left the dye on for twice the recommended time. Now my hair is the color of a traffic cone and brittle enough to break if I sneeze. FML
Today, I had a giant Scantron test. After putting 10 answers, I noticed every single answer was A. I got freaked out and started putting random answers. Turns out every answer on the test was A. I failed. FML
Today, I walked into school confident about the new hair color I'd had done over the weekend. My drama teacher apparently dyed her hair the same color; everyone noticed and thought I'd copied her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should feel special, it's pretty rare for women to be colour blind.

Hey, it's always good to know your shortcomings. All you have to do is ask somebody (like a salesman) if these colors go together well, then keep track of what color each garment is. If a blind person can do it, you can too.

Oh gee, if color blind people can't get drivers licenses, I guess my dad who is color blind has been using his VALID drivers license illegally.

This is...really embarrassing, I imagine. But you didn't know, therefore you shouldn't feel bad. Next time someone laughs, I reckon you just explain the situation. Tell them you literally can't 'see' what's wrong with your clothes combination and then kindly tell them to mind their own business. Furthermore, you can also request assistance in choosing clothes from someone close to you, right?

Sorry OP, I know your pain. I'm a girl and I usually just end up wearing white or black to avoid clashing
