How specific are you with your colors?

I'm very specific, so I'm particularly precise in use of color-based adjectives.

I see a particularly precise colour-based adjective and I want it painted black. No colours anymore I want them to turn black.

Not very specific, at all. I usually just make up my own names for colours, because I am lazy/dumb. :}

As a straight male I recognize primary and secondary colors. Anything further is nonsense.

I'm color deficient so I couldn't care less about the damn things.

For someone who is so specific, you failed to cite any examples!

(I got a three on lynxie's test)

I usually stick to crayola colors

I was able to get a question right on You Don't Know Jack against some co-workers because I remembered that Macaroni and Cheese was a Crayola color!

I scored a 10 on that test. That's reassuring since I do a lot of car wiring. :p

I don't really get too detailed in color descriptions.

I got a 0 on the hue test! :D

I love colour names, especially obscure and euphonic ones, but when describing a colour I try to keep it on a level where I can make myself understood, rather than breaking out the most specific word I know for it.

Best score for your gender and age range: -11840
Highest score for your gender and age range: 11722

I don't really get those best and highest scores, but hey at least I got it perfect. I'd like to thank my MacBook Pro for providing me with such a great and accurate screen despite it being a TN panel.

Salmon is not a colour. Your shirt is pink. :colbert:

Actually scratch that, pink is not a colour either. Girl is a colour and includes "colours" such as "purple" and "pink"

Your shirt is girl.

If it's not in the 96 color box, it doesn't count. I dont' care about that glitter :bou::bou::bou::bou: or Gel FX or whatever the fuck else they try to pull on me.
