Default What is so hard about "blue"?

I once offered to make my sister some pillowcases for Christmas.

She said "How about some blue ones."

I asked her to please send some paint chips so I could choose a color that (I thought) she might like.

Her response "What's so hard about blue?"

She has - thank goodness - since learned that there are many variations of a color and that some clues to narrow down the choices are helpful.


Have any of you had discussions/aggravation/miscommunications about what you and the other person had in mind when a particular color is mentioned?

I have learned that it is better if I choose my own thread (or whatever else involving color) rather than sending someone else to do it. Then I see for myself what is/was available and can't complain about what was selected.
