So... that was a flood.

It all seemed so harmless at first, but it quickly went downhill, didn't it?

I've got a question for you, actually. [Eddie disappears off screen, and comes back with a little piece of card, then holds it up to the camera. The card is a square of orange, much like a paint sample swatch ( Read more... )

surprisingly competent, complimentary colours, painting by numbers, won a prize for mustard, not a chromotologist really, secretly a victorian

Root vegetable?

Roots are white man. [He knows, he's had to dig for them] What, you don't know what color a root is?

Re: D: one day I swear I will read it on my kindle. needshumility April 26 2011, 17:15:36 UTC

Not... vegetable roots? I don't know, I don't farm them, but that's the colour the vegetables turn up on your plate.

I know carrots are supposed to be orange, but I can't see it unless it's been given Univisual colour. I was wondering how accurate the Univisual colour was.

You can come, but I'm not hurt.

Re: Private needshumility April 26 2011, 17:35:00 UTC

Sure? I'll bring my swatches anyway.

Re: Private thebestnose April 26 2011, 19:13:30 UTC

I'm sure.

Bring them if you really want.

Re: Private needshumility April 26 2011, 20:17:03 UTC

I'd rather just make sure.

I'll see you in a bit.

It's very...orange.

needshumility April 27 2011, 06:15:29 UTC

Well, yes. But is it carrot orange?

19centconstable April 27 2011, 06:24:50 UTC

It's the sort of orange a picture of a carrot might be, but I don't believe I have ever seen an actual carrot quite that shade.

needshumility April 27 2011, 20:44:43 UTC

...That's actually a very interesting perspective on it.

A friendly game of cricket would be a corking way to pass the afternoon. I've nearly finished reading a splendid little book called Ethics, Institutions, and the Right to Philosophy. I'd be happy to join you as soon as I've flipped the last page.

The colour seems to me just a touch redder than any of the fruits, roots, or gourds mentioned. It is, however, very close. Perhaps the colour of a persimmon?

Re: [Friend filter] needshumility April 27 2011, 06:12:25 UTC

Brilliant! That book sounds... interesting.

So you think a carrot is slightly towards the yellow side of things? Right. I'll make a note of it.
