Jokes on him, gothboy is also broke. Seriously, some of my goth stuff is expensive πŸ™„

Real goths don’t buy expensive goth stuff. All you need is the attitude and a color palette* to match your soul.

Palette. A pallet holds bricks and a palate tastes food

I bet I could hold some bricks with a palette too. I mean, it's basically just a plate for your paint. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

I'm picturing now competitions in which people compete to see how many bricks at once they can carry on a palette X number of feet

Now I kinda wanna prompt an AI to give me a picture of an extremely large Bob Ross using a pallet as his palette.

Palette sounds too french for my English soul

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They're all from French. Pallet comes from a a word for straw, palette for shovel, and palate for the top of the mouth.

Also French, from "small ball." Originally Latin pilla, meaning it's twinned with pill. Pill came direct from Latin though, so no weird French influences.

Damn the French!
