Are you an 8-color type?

Qoute from John Mayer, an american pop music singer. “Life is like a box of crayons. Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you’re really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back." I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I’ve got a few missing. It’s ok though, because I’ve got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.. so when I meet someone who’s an 8-color type.. I’m like, "hey boy, blue!" and he’s like, "oh, you mean indigo!" and he goes off on his indigo thing, and I’m like, "no - I want bluemagenta!"

Do you have the same problem as mine?
