The Russian Army Has Got You Pegged
A Team Orange member recently discovered this gem at EnglishRussia.com. Popular on Russian blogs, it's supposedly an entry-level test administered by the Russian army. Here's what the translation says:
Six questions that help to identify any hidden psychological diseases young soldier might. If the soldier can't see the number in one of the 6 circles on the test picture, then he likely might having...:
See your diagnosis, after the jump!
Can't see circle 1: High agression, proneness to conflict, the recommendation is to add more physical excercise and cold showers.
Can't see circle 2: Possible lower than average intellectual abilities, can't serve with sophisticated equipment.
Can't see circle 3: Possible debauchery, soldier should get increased daily ration, should get more physical activity tasks, should not be connected to food supplies, etc.
Can't see circle 4: Possible inclination to violence, can be assigend as a leader to his unit, as he can preserve discipline.
Can't see circle 5: Possible latent homosexuality. Can have light to uncontrolled excesses of attraction to the same sex.
Can't see circle 6: Possible schizophreanic tendency. Requires additional inspection.
Every soldier should be tested before assignment, according to the order #2299."
How did you test, soldier?

does this really work or is "team orange'' a bunch of bastards and put in a fake one ;) nice one guys
mm army guys
Oh gosh, according to this I think I might be gay. Who would have known?!
OH SNAP! I'm Homosexual.. Good thing there are these tests to find it out!
What circles?
Is this for real? Cause I really can't see circle 5!!! Well, this means that I'm even gayer than I thought.
is this a real test if so...I'M GAY!
Ha, I see what they did there.
Apparently I'm gay.
Wow, i can't see 5.
:D
OK It is really weird but I cant see #5
YES!! I passed.. I'm a big queen.. Nothing in circle number 5.
I remember meeting some Russian Soldiers back in Bosnia. They were all so cute. I felt bad because they wanted to trade stuff, and everyone wanted their fuzzy hats. All we had were cheap trinkets to give out.
And oh yeah, I couldn't see anything in circle 5. I'd be curious to see who could?
Wow... I can see all the numbers except number 5. Ain't that funny.
Try as I might, I really can't see any number in Test 5. Does the clarity of visibility correlate with the strength of the conditions?
is there even a number in entry 5??? lol
Ha ha, I certainly could see #5, they've got it wrong in a big way.
I CANT SEE #5!
I can't see circle 5 xD
25, 29, 45, 56, 13, 8
What's the point?
can't see anything in #5. hmmmm......
omg i couldnt see circle 5 haha, i guess it works
OMG....Not joking.... I can't see #5------this can't be real, I am going to test my brother lol
If this 'test' works, then everyone is a latent homosexual :)
Hah! I couldn't see #5, and yes I'm a ragin' & proud queer homo!
Well, my homosexuality isn't so latent, but I don't see anything in circle 5
HOLY SHIT
I can see them all EXCEPT FOR 5.
Coincidence? I think not.
When I read the diagnosis I think I shat bricks.
Wonder how they'd explain away the fact that I'm a woman who must be very, very straight, seeing as how I love gay porn... heh
This fake test is as old as Jake Cruise. Guess which circle contains no number.
I can't see anything at all in circle 5. Uhhhh I've been out since I was 16.
Oh, and I can see all the other numbers.
Hah! They are so way off. There is nothing latent about me. As for circle #6, I can clearly see it is 23 even though the voices are telling me it is 8.
LOL unsurprisingly the only one I couldn't see was number 5.
C'mon, these are test for the color blind. just search google, and you find them. By the way, circle no 5, sooo obvious.
That's stupid. Those are used to test for color blindness. They are called Ishihara plates.

Holy shit, I can't see 5. I can see all the others, but I just can't see five. I guess this test is accurate for me...
I couldn't see 3 and 5? What numbers can you distinguish in the circles?
That HAS to be a trick. I seriously couldn't see circle 5-- is this a late April Fool's joke or is there some kind of actual validity to this test?
is this real?
i've seen this on facebook tests...
is it me or
does everybody can read #5???
even an owl can't see what's
the number on it...
the author just invented the #5 diagnose...
or all of it... i guess...
funny... lol
busted!
I'm latent homosexuality!!! no violence, not schizophreanic, not stipid (lower than average intellectual abilities), not even agressive, just a simple homo. simply faggot. simply fabulous.
and people seem to think the russain army isn't that progressive...
possible latent homosexuality? yeah il take that.
what is the number on number 5 anyway?
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT !!! I COULDN'T SEE THE NUMBER IN CIRCLE 5 !!! And I Am More Than Latent !!! I Am a Proud and Happy and Out Homosexual !!! What is It About Circle 5 that indicates that I was born Gay?!!! I Could Easily See ALL the Other Numbers in the Other Circles, but Not Circle 5 !!! What is the Genetic/Biological/Scientific Basis For This?!
I believe number 5 does not have a number associated within it or it is inverted so that you cannot see the number. I have worked the no 5 in Picasa with all different color schemes and nothing... random dots. I believe number is 5 has no inside image.
Jeez, the number in circle 5 is plain as day!
It's 69, for those of you who can't see it.
I'm gay and schizophreanic!!!! Fuck!
All I see is 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42.
Maybe that will get me in bed with Sawyer?
PS: Let it go, people. The Army talking about homossexuality? Please.
what bullshit - I'm colour-blind and can only see #1 - I had this test in Grade two and nobody freaked out.
Quel surprise. And I was wondering why I drooled every time I saw Teo. I guess that puts that baby to rest.
I "get" the joke, kinda like that "check your fingernails" thing where if you hold your hand one way to look at them, you're gay, hold your hand another way and you're straight. But seriously, hacked color blindness charts? I would say, "Who falls for these things," but reading the replies answers that question. I'm guessin' anyone who's never been tested for color blindness.
this is a basic color blindness test - nothing to do with homosexaulity mumbo jumbo. I'd know because I actually am colorblind and have seen these for over 10 years!
circle 5 doesnt have a number,but yay! i'm gay lol
This is only a color blind test... This was in my Psychology text book a couple years ago... It just measures the different "levels" of color blindness, as in can't see a specific color or completely color blind...
Funny joke about gays not seeing #5 though...good one!
I always thought I was straight who like gay porn... but this test can´t be the last word...btw what i see is 85 (if correct)...
I think that the fifth circle may be a test for color IN-sensitivity. That is, if you see a number it is because you are LESS able to see the full spectrum of light.
Maybe that's why I loved playing with Barbie and her pink hairbrush so much as a kid.
**Oh GAWD! This ith thoooo thilly!**
Couldn't see 5 either...guess I should give my boyfriend the news
I don't see a number in #5. I see Diana Ross from the Wiz.
It's set up...#5 is the only one that uses the color for the number in the background of the circle...all of the other ones only use the color of the number for the number only. I don't know about now, but I know that they've used these circles to test different types of color blindness.
is this real i can't see number five or is it fake i'm starting to freak out... can some one tell me if i'ts real or not.
is this real i carnt see number five or is it fake im starting to freak out...... can some one tell me if its real or not
maybe this thing is just a joke about the number 5
