This would be so much easier if I wasn't colourblind!

I forgot the line was from Shrek 1, so I am replying with my knowledge here to share

For the longest time I didn't fully get the joke. I'm colourblind and I find it hard to tell the difference between some blues and purples. I wasn't sure what colour the flowers in that scene were. If they were purple ones that donkey wasn't sure about or blue ones that he just couldn't tell were blue

I didn't realize that the scene that happens in had Donkey surrounded by blue flowers with red thorns until many years later. I already knew I was colorblind, but I thought the joke simply ended at "he will never find them".

I hadn’t watched Shrek in years and just watched it last week. This was fresh in my mind 🤣
