Has anyone ever wondered?
Who in the world chose the color for the standard pencil? It's SO random! I was just staring at one earlier and thinking, "what is this color even supposed to be? and what is it called" what's the purpose of it? I'm just curious.

Hahah that's true, but WHY this color? Is there a reason for it?
I don't know why this is annoying me so much but it is!
It makes no sense! Why not make them straight up orange, or yellow? Or even Brown?
This in-between color is freaking me out! Hahaha

Ohsohappy, Are you ohsobored? Well, here you go: Pencil - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
What color would you like? The color of your avatar lips? That would be cool to me.

Haha yeah me too. :) I once had over 50 gel pens, some of them were metallic, and others were pastel, and others were glittery and neon and basic. It was insane, I used them all up! :)

I can agree, but the next question is WHY would they choose THAT color for the standard pencil?
It's a mystery.. .

Why? Because they can.
It sort of looks like the color your snot turns when you have a cold.
Now you'll be thinking that when you look at a pencil. :D

Alty, you sure have a way of putting images in one's head don't you? I might have nightmares about blowing my nose and pencils coming out now. Then how would you feel?
:p

I'd giggle. A lot. :)
Yawn. Time for me to go to bed, early morning tomorrow.
I'll dream of pencils and sadly also of ants, penils (?) and chickens. :(
