Drabble by Kevin Fagan for February 10, 2016

Saw a Coatings Manufacturers’ Customer Library (FYI they prefer calling “paint” Coatings) and quit looking at it after the 40th shade of White; I couldn’t tell them apart visually! At least the test colors are visually different Honeybunch!

Usually, afterwards, the love of your life will put his life in danger by telling you : you know, I think I prefered the (put in a colour you did not use).

Luckily, my husband wanted all white, but I insisted the bedroom & kitchen be different. He just sort of agreed to a color & as he didn’t really care, didn’t comment or complain.I kinda like that idea of a multicolored room- not that I’d want to live in it.

That’s going on in our house too. :(

Use the green for the walls and the green for trim. Fabulous!

North American homes are so blah. My wife and I built this place and vowed we’d never live in a house where the inside and outside were ‘dirt colours’. People love it but they still go home to beige. Sad.

Keep going like you are Honeybunch, and you will have a camouflage wall.

The person who wants the house painted should do the painting, or pay to have it done. You can’t expect someone else (your spouse) to do it.

Why do the characters in this strip wear the same clothes all the time?

Because that’s part of the joke?

Go with the gray!

Now you can paint a rainbow.

“Nice try, Ralph. We’re repainting the room and that’s that.”
