viotetirjava: This is like hilarious but also stop being pretentious, it's a perfectly fair comparison to make. Navy blue = a darker and more desaturated blue and maroon = a darker and more desaturated red. The modifier “navy” is so disconnected enough from its roots that it makes sense for it to assume a new contextual meaning. Sure, the name comes from the British navy using it, but what we're talking about is how it modifies a color. roitemspeachonlyfinaldestination: i do not care how pretentious i sound, this joke is picking the lowest-hanging fruit ive ever seen. its LAZY. it comes across as *haha look at this funny r/showerthoughts post i saw!!! so relatable, am i right fellow non-artists?" its a low effort joke aimed at people who could not be paid to give a shit about trying any artistic medium, but lose their mind over a notebook sketch 'someone does in 15 minutes and scream “I WISH | COULD DRAW LIKE YOU" as if it doesnt take years of practice: like the artist was born with an “artistic gene” or some bulishit all i ask is that people try just a little bit more to not sound dumb when theyre trying to be funny space-cops: [cartoon of a knight hammering in a sign saying "no navy red allowed"
