Thursday, October 22, 2009 - Crayola

Today I shall post rather randomly about Crayolas. I don't know exactly why but don't doubt that I have 64 sharp reasons for doing so.

There are about 64 online games about crayons. You can test your personality here ~ I came up black:

You are most like:

Black


You are bold with a dark side. You make clear lines wherever you go, though you color outside of the lines. Many people may just see the surface of you and think you are merely plain, but you have a lot of depth to you as well.

 

Take this quiz: Which Crayola Box of 8 Color Are You?

 
That gave me no particular insight.

You can see if you recognize the colors of the 64 box here, though I must warn you this page is not quite accurate. They do not know that thistle has been retired, for example.

Or, if you are really bored, and have an extra 12 minutes, you can go here and see if you can identify all 64 colors by name. I guess that also depends how good the color on your monitor is.

Three questions to be answered in the comment you are about to leave:

#1) is there any invention greater than the sharpener in the bottom of the box, and if so, what?

#2) what is your favorite Crayola color?

#3) do you agree: Prang crayons smell greater than Crayolas. (Even without a sharpener.)

#1 The one invention greater than the sharpener on the 64 box of Crayola Crayons is the nose pads on a pair of glasses, followed closely by the Charmin double roll.

#2 My favorite crayon color is Burnt Sienna, as long as we talking about crayons and not the Toyota in my driveway.

#3 I’ve never heard of Prang crayons, much less smelled them. I hope there isn’t a crayon snorting epidemic starting in our school systems due to Prang. Is this some sort of conspiracy from a huge crayon consortium to hook our children on crayons? I’d hate to see a 14 year old slink onto the playground to offer some unsuspecting second grader a Royal Eggplant or an Aquamarine. I think it’s time to call Geraldo.

#1: It is a great invention. I also like the newer invention of gel crayons. I wish there had been gel crayons when I was little. Much smoother color application. (Am I overthinking this?

#2: Purple. Harold was my hero.

#3: No idea. Although I have been an avid crayon enthusiast, I have never inhaled. :o)

Peace and Laughter,

My crayola affinity is:
:::Earthy and humble, you are often mistaken for being plain, when you are actually quite interesting. Your gentle spirit causes you to be very attractive to others who are searchng for genuine friends.:::: Whatever.

#1 - While the sharpener is, indeed, a fantastic device... must say, sticking with the near office supply theme you have here -- Post-it notes would have to be number 1. Followed by the ball point pen. But Running water and indoor plumbing are still tops of all inventions...EVER.

#2 -- I don't have a favorite. Too many awesome things can be done with those crayons...that to pick just one would be most difficult.

#3 -- I've only LOOKED at prang crayons. I've never inhaled. (*snicker*) but I love the smell of crayolas...and I actually enjoy opening a new container of Play-doh, too. But I'm odd and not ashamed to admit it.

#2) Flamingo Pink

#3) . What is a prang? I have never had the opportunity to smell them :D

Well, I'm skipping the questions.
I do feel that the personality traits on that quiz are a bit... um... broad? Maybe aspiring fortune-tellers should read up on them. :D

I'm black, too.

Now that I'm here, I don't remember the questions, but I used to love midnight blue. I'd probably do better on the old color names than the new ones, but I have to go in a bit, so I guess I won't take that quiz.

Oh..a pair of scissors or a pocket knife works ok for me instead of the sharpener.

1. I never really liked the crayola sharpener and always used a regular, manual pencil sharpener to get them really pointy.

2. evergreen

3. I have never sniffed the Prangs.

1) Why sharpen pencils or crayons? It makes life too stressful. It's cool to have it where you won't lose it, but fingernails work fine if they really need to be sharpened.
2) Thistle Rules -- Just as new coke was rejected by coke lovers 64 crayons without thistle should be rejected by real crayon lovers. So it sounds like the site got it right and crayola got it wrong.
3) I agree with the others who want to avoid substance abuse/misuse. It is inappropriate to comment on this in a "G" rated post.

I think your darling daughter claims that she didn't like the questions b/c she really didn't like the colour they called her -- what was it sewer green? We know she doesn't like that colour. (FYI: my personality is Black).
