Pet Peeve

292 views

Just a pet peeve:

Bley=new dark grey=dark bluish grey=dark bley

Light bley=new light grey=light bluish grey (which =light bley)

 

Just say bley and light bley, please.

As Jinzo put it:

grey = old dark grey

light grey = old light grey

 

bley = bluish dark grey

light bley = bluish light grey

Quote of the Day: You all laugh because I’m different. I laugh because you’re all the same.

(One of my new favorite quotes.)

I dun get it.

 

Bley is not a word to me.

 

Grey, light grey, old grey, silver, new silver, white. And black. And gunmetal.

 

These are the only grayscale colors in BIONICLE.

 

Awesome quote. Who said it?

Why, what's going on?

 

I always say light bley and dark bley since some people think of light bley as just bley and the darker color as dark bley, and vice versa.

 

BTW, since I haven't been here in some time, what's with the Calvin and Hobbes theme?

I don't know where the quote is from. I think I saw it on a car's bumper sticker. Bumper sticker wisdom FTW.

 

Bley is that ugly bluish-grey grey that started with the Toa Metru and Metruan. Before that we had the grey found in the Rahkshi and Onua. We're sorta stuck with it now, though it wasn't taken lightly.

 

There's light bley?

 

*Tries to remember*

Kikanalo hands. Toa Nuparu joints. And system sets.

Yeah, I find I have to specify light and dark. Actually, my friend calls the light version "bley" and the darker version dark bley. But "dark" bley came first so it shouldn't have to be specified.

 

But I'm bringing this up since people will say grey when they mean bley. Or light grey when they mean light bley.

 

BTW, C&H: Why not?

I don't even recognize light bleh... it's an okay color, so it's grey. Bleh is more of an insult, really.

 

:music:

Yeah, bley is an insult, I can live with light bley. It's not (as?) ugly.

 

Though it is awesome when you combine bley and dark grey!
