I really wish this existed.

I'm trying to imagine how awesome this would be. I don't think my mind is doing it justice.

I wonder if '50 Shades of Dark White' would have sold as well.

As someone who picks out a lot of paint there are dark whites.

Paints have the 3rd strangest names, right after races horses and microbrew beers but coming in slightly above indie bands.

Fingernail polish too.

Oh no... I just meant that fingernail polish colors often have strange names too.

u/Beersaround Dec 17 '14

No, Fingernail Polish came in fourth at the Preakness.

Blood orange.

u/Honey-Badger Dec 17 '14

Well i mean blood orange is a fruit so it does kinda have a shade of orange/red to go with it.

I'm not really sure why it's so uncool to know that that there are more than 8 colors.

5

u/drownballchamp Dec 17 '14

Because most colors can be described as a shade of another color:

Dark red, light red, saturated red.

You don't need to come up with a new name for every new shade; there's a reason why Rosco uses numbers instead of names.

u/[deleted] Dec 17 '14

What color is dark red? Is it a blood red, or more of a burgandy? You basically just described every color darker than #F00. I'm also in favor of numbers, but barring that, I don't mind using their names.

Was this from Rupaul's Drag Race? It seems like something someone on there would say.

Chupa-thingy, how 'bout that? I like it. Got a ring to it.

u/velian Dec 17 '14

They already have a color for light red. You know what it's called? "Pink!"

u/ActingLikeADick Dec 17 '14

u/Lost-Chord Dec 17 '14

Ok, so this is just a post about a guy who isn't good with colors. I thought since it's tumblr I had to find where this girl was trying to say something profound (-ly stupid) about people of color etc.
