I'm like this with plants, too.

[–] kazerniel@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I was a bit like that too, but since I started using Flora Incognita, I'm actually recognising different trees as I'm walking on the street, even without the app 🤯

Shrimps cant see extra colors though. They are just too dumb to mix basic colors in their brain, instead just evolved extra color receptors

OOP can tell a truck from a sedan.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Ooh fancy pants over here, able to distinguish colors from each other. Capable of describing things. Having the capacity to tell objects apart.

Basic reading skills and a not completely non-functioning memory is beyond people's abilities?

I'm more discerning regarding the model of my first car, or similar models. Got used to finding that car in a parking lot, etc.

Meh same with dog, tree, flower, architecture, bird, etc, people.

Spanish Revival

I used to be like that back in highschool/college when I was more into cars. It was fun being able to find the small details of the car to single out which year model it was and stuff like that.

Now, I don't have the time or interested to do that any more.

I used to be able to detect a 90s Chrysler/Dodge engine by their sound. It was very distinctive across the whole range.

Not a lot of those survived. Their transmissions sucked ass. I don't think I could do it anymore.

The Chrysler/Dodge 5.7L V8 "HEMI" engine has a distinct sound as well. They put that engine in all their cars, trucks, and SUVs from 2000 almost to the current day.

Sedan? Yeah no. Brown car. Saying sedan makes you sound like some kind of car expert.

Do you know why a chicken coop has two doors? If it had four, it'd be a chicken sedan

So true. I work on vehicles every day and I still have to look at the logo on the bumper every time
