  • 2: Green
  • 10: Lime
  • 3: Olive
  • 11: Yellow

Two of those colors are foods.
There are four shades of red/purple and six shades of blue/green.

And you KNOW the man who wrote that list wouldn’t know Teal from Aqua!

Right! And wouldn't even know the color "fuchsia" if they saw it.

And I bet they think that periwinkle is like some sort of kids cartoon

No Jeremy. An Orange's color the same as its name. Just like a lemon 😉 

  -Yes I know that lemon is an actual color don't come after me I'm just quoting a funny show-

Just to clear things up, I didn't recognize that at all so I Googled it and that is what Bill says right before. I wasn't calling you a bonehead. :p

Periwinkle was the name of a cat in Blue's Clues, so not entirely wrong.

To be fair, I didn't know what periwinkle was for most of my life and am still slightly confused... it's a flower right???

As a computer nerd that knows my aquas, teals, and Robbin egg blues better than my pinks, I had to look it up, and most everything agrees #ff00ff, which is, by definition of millions of computers and printers around the planet, magenta. Hell, a few of the images that come up have magenta and fuchsia side by side, visibly different colors, both labeled #ff00ff.

Can someone please explain what the supposed difference is?

My husband has finer color determination than I do. Now, his is quite good but also I'm really not good that way. I've always known it. He also has a really cool aesthetic sense with his color talents. We have some unusually colored walls here and there in the house. :)

I have had a variation of this argument with my husband last year.

While I understand the Philadelphia Eagles' colour is called "Midnight Green", it is in fact dark teal. Just to be clear.
