MOST POPULAR HUE

One of the colour shades which is incredibly popular, especially in ultra-macho places like Texas and the Appalachias, because it goes so well with worn military fatigues, camouflage patterns, and interior design, is what is known as 'gunmetal'. A dark grey with a blueish tinge suggestive of the alloy used in Civil War weaponry. And please remember that the Civil War represents the greatest age in America. Life was better then. Which everyone in certain important areas of the country knows. Everyone.

It's invisible to ducks, by the way.

Gunmetal is a reassuring decorative element in Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

Here in California we actually tend towards 'shrinking violet' and 'crocodile green', which were the dominant colours of the hippie era. We never experienced the Civil War, you see, and vastly prefer the gentle tints of tofu. As well as puce. Puce is nice.

But never mind.

Anything can be 'gun metal'. Watches. Cyber trucks. Cigar lighters.
Bathroom tiles. Eyeshadow. Canned food.
Religion.

Government agencies. Caskets. Voting booths.
Housing. The Department of Re-education.
Your inbred cousins from Tennessee.
Repurposed building equipment.


Over the next few months your familiarity with this hue will greatly increase.


Along with Ballistol Break-Free CLP, Hoppe's No. 9, or Remington Rem Oil, which are all known for their cleaning, lubricating, and corrosion-preventing properties.
Essential parts of a hip and with-it fashion sense.




Please note: Very many things remain unsaid, and several risky words have been avoided, because I don't want the godddamned authorities to arrest me on some ridiculous pretext and "disappear me". Yes, I'm an American citizen, but that has not helped me in any way in the past. And I do not want this peace-loving Christian blog to become 'Exhibit A' in a trial of un-maga dissent. Which is another reason I won't ever live in the goddamned shithole states like Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. All places, by the way, where literacy is often non-existent.
And the food is garbage. How is the price of eggs?
Covfefe!
