Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for August 15, 2021

I’d go with Shocking Chartreuse!!

/SHNARK/

Carbon nanotube black. It is darker than background space. Look for the blackest moving thing that you can not see.

Auburn. Make it auburn so the big baboon by the light of the deathmoon can comb his auburn hair.

Why paint it at all?

“Stormy gray. It matches your eyes, sir.”

What ever you, don’t say that they both look the same to you. Don’t!

Ungoliant death web black!

What other choice is there!!

In deep space, everything is black.

Despite the names, Silver Peony is far more menacing.

Electric Banana.

Trooper-X13 is me when in the same situation. Yet when an opinion is voiced, it’s deemed wrong.

Go to your local home decor center. Fifty-seven variations on white.

Go Astral Silver or go home. ;-)

It’s Fifty Shades Of Grey.

Why not Stormy Gray, since it’s full of Storm Troopers.

These guys are so funny…!

Pick the wrong colour and you probably won’t make it back alive.

From “Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House”:

Muriel Blandings : I want it to be a soft green, not as blue-green as a robin’s egg, but not as yellow-green as daffodil buds. Now, the only sample I could get is a little too yellow, but don’t let whoever does it go to the other extreme and get it too blue. It should just be a sort of grayish-yellow-green. Now, the dining room. I’d like yellow. Not just yellow; a very gay yellow. Something bright and sunshine-y. I tell you, Mr. PeDelford, if you’ll send one of your men to the grocer for a pound of their best butter, and match that exactly, you can’t go wrong! Now, this is the paper we’re going to use in the hall. It’s flowered, but I don’t want the ceiling to match any of the colors of the flowers. There’s some little dots in the background, and it’s these dots I want you to match. Not the little greenish dot near the hollyhock leaf, but the little bluish dot between the rosebud and the delphinium blossom. Is that clear? Now the kitchen is to be white. Not a cold, antiseptic hospital white. A little warmer, but still, not to suggest any other color but white. Now for the powder room – in here – I want you to match this thread, and don’t lose it. It’s the only spool I have and I had an awful time finding it! As you can see, it’s practically an apple red. Somewhere between a healthy winesap and an unripened Jonathan. Oh, excuse me…

Mr. PeDelford : You got that Charlie?

Charlie : Red, green, blue, yellow, white.

Mr. PeDelford : Check.

That’s why Dirk and his storm troopers never succeed, they get too bogged down on details. Of course the fact that they are a bunch of idiots helps too.

Sounds like my wife picking furniture. 2 hours later pick the first one she looked at.

One of your coworkers could TRY to shoot you….

Near as I can tell, silver peonies do not exist in nature. Sherwin-Williams made it up.

And when you consider the company’s logo, it’s no wonder Dirk Raider picks them.

Silver Peony.

No one expects a Silver Peony Death Moon.

AKA: Pale Purple.

That IS terrible. You know how incredibly time consuming it is to pick those colors in Home Depot?

But is it worse than Vogon poetry?
