Most people are the 8 color boxes, but what you’re really looking for are the 64 color boxes with the sharpeners on the back.
I fancy myself to be a 64 color box, though I’ve got a few missing.
It’s okay though, because I’ve got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal.
I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8 color boxes.
Does anyone else have that problem?
I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.
So when I meet someone who’s an 8 color type…I’m like, hey girl, Magenta! And she’s like, oh, you mean purple! And she goes off on her purple thing, and I’m like, no I want Magenta!”
