This kind of reminds me of the feud between the guy who obtained exclusive rights to use “Vantablack”, the blackest black, and the guy who created the pinkest pink but made his purchasers agree not to let it fall into the hands of that other guy.
It was an AMC Gremlin, so not exactly.
mmm
I had that color Gremlin. We called it Mountain Dew green, even though that color has too much yellow in it. Rather like #5FD460 on the color palatte.
My Gremlin is kudzu green at the moment. It started out orange.
I can picture that exactly. Nature does take over.
We have three cars:
- My Mustang is metallic red
- My wife’s Corvette is “Laguna Blue,” and her Mazda SUV is a medium blue
I dislike the fact that most cars today are black, white, gray, or silver; I’ve owned a white car, and a black car, in the past, and I’d rather not own another car in any of those neutral colors.
It seems I’ve had a lot of orange vehicles. It ain’t right, I tell you.
But much safer during hunting season.
My high school girlfriend drove a Ford Maverick (remember those?). It was painted “Hulla Blue.”
Ford thought they were hip. Other colors were “Antiestablish Mint” and “Original Cinnamon.”
William Burns is a 67 year old man sporting a 16-year-old’s mustache. That thing is weird looking. It’s almost as if he had a full mustache, then tried to cut it off with craft scissors without a mirror just before walking into this room, and that’s the best he could do.
Yeah. I wasn’t sure whether to vote “too much” or " too little", but that’s one weird and unflattering mustache for a grown man to sport.
My previous car was a red station wagon – extremely easy to spot in a car park. Now I have a silver sedan which blends in with all the other silver and grey cars.
Hyundai had a really nice copper colour for their SUVs a few years back. I’d love to have one of those.
Wait…you still have a Gremlin?
Ha, the Maverick was my first car, before the Gremlin. I don’t remember the name of the color but now it looks like it may have been Antiestablish Mint.
mmm
I think I know the problem with the mustache, and it’s the same one I had with wispy bangs: when the hair turns white, it starts getting translucent, and the overall effect is to make it disappear. It’s the right amount of mustache, but he’s going to need to either grow it bushier or dye it darker. Or shave it off! I’m almost always rooting for less facial hair.
I take it she means it is out between the ancient magnolia and the split-rail fence that runs along the northwest edge of the property, just behind the big boulder that marks the end of the field it was dug out of. Careful when you open the hood, those yellowjackets tend to be in a nasty mood even this time of year.
It sounds like Beck’s Gremlin has been reclaimed by the Arkansas brush.
Yep. So true
Somehow, I’m not surprised. Orange or red.
I admit I didn’t know that Elephant’s Breath is actually a color.
Frasier once had a hilarious scene with Frasier and Niles discussing the twenty shades of light gray, IIRC, in some high-end clothing catalog. Wish I could find it online.
Ah, ok. For a minute there I was jealous.
mmm
