I think I just misspelled everything, as it wasn't taking anything I tried.

My favorite colour is Vair en pointe. So technically it's a fur, not a colour. I don't care. Anyway it's half colour, half metal, so it should count.
This webcomic, seen here is hosted on the free web host Comic Genesis which pretty much proves its not popular.

Yeah. That's right. I'm an Art major who memorizes the fancy and pretentious names on tubes of paint! Burnt Umber and Cerulean blue FTW!
Those are real universal colours? I always thought that manufacturers made them up.

I got 27, but some of the colors I wanted to give, it didn't have. They left out Hunter Green and Plum!

Denial is not falsification. You can't avoid a fact just because you don't like it.

67 on countries for me. : |

I'd have no chance with colours, so I'm not even touching that one.

Asparagus and burnt sienna were both on the list! Although burnt umber always had a special place in the paint-box of my heart...

I kept typing in Cerulean, no idea it had to be Cerulean BLUE.


Fun fact, geeks : The towns in the original pokemon were colors.
Yes.
I will deny using this fact in the quiz.

No it's not! >=(

It's a fact that there's less than 81 recognized countries in Europe, and I completely forgot about Andorra, Macedonia, and most of Scandinavia.

(And it would have been 82 if Paraguay didn't have such a guay name...)
