Farrow & Ball go further by just calling their salmon paint colour “Dead Salmon”.
Pink salmon have a kinda pinkish stripe on them
since when is salmon pink? it’s very obviously orange, tuna is pink.
You need to adjust your RGB settings. Tweak them until the salmon is pink-orange and not orange-pink.
Salmon pink is a real color. But I think it refers to the cooked salmon, and not raw salmon.
but cooked salmon is either pale orange (the middle) or dark orange (the outside)?
Colors are such a subjective experience! I would definitely classify salmon as pink, but now that you say it I can see why another person might classify it as orange. It would never have occured to me naturally though.
Isn’t that cool?
If it ain’t pink on the inside you better run away fast as you can
you’d* better run away
You say tomato, I say 'mater
Aaactually salmon can’t talk
No, they just don’t want to talk to you.
Now I’m sad. Thanks.
You’re welcome!
That’s not true, I caught one the other day who promised to grant me wishes if I let it go. He wasn’t lying but the wishes eventually led to my downfall so now I have a hard time trusting anyone even partially aquatic.
Did his salmon friends rob your house while he distracted you with the wishes? Happened to me one time. Just wanna make sure it wasn’t the same salmon.
I thought it was bad enough when I got catfished by a salmon but you guys got me beat
Well, at least its better than getting salmoned by a catfish. that was an experience.
Oof thoughts and prayers
A tale as old as time
partially aquatic.
So, like, a mermaid?
I would definitely never trust a mermaid. Well maybe if they sang the right song.
I just don’t like the fishtail. I’d like the fish part on top with legs.
You just don’t know where they stand
Last time a fish tried to grant me a wish, I cut its head off, gut, filet, pan sear on med high till throughly cooked and seasoned with a side of fiddleheads. Wish granted.
I think, upon closer inspection, you’ll find that you were actually talking to a large mouth bass named Billy. Excellent singer too.
Wait is this like a classic story? It sounds oddly familiar
I know it as The Fisherman and his Wife
Edit: Updated link to a more prototypical example, a fairy tale as recorded by Grimm.
One of the Grimm’s fairy tales.

You mean sauce? Cream sauce.
I am already annoyed at the ineveitble umm actually replies about salmon’s not being exactly the color salmon and humans not being the same color either. Pre-pissed
The bigger “Umm, actually” is that during spawning season, their outsides are that color.
spawning season
Damn so they NPCs fr
And when it isn’t their spawning season, you’re not very likely to see them in the wild, so it kinda makes sense that people associated the colour with the fish.
Wow, TIL.
Achually it’s named after Salmon Rushdie and is the true colour of Satan’s flesh.
D’y’know how many fish are “silvery-blue”, salmon?? Get over yourself, and be glad we didn’t name the color “sockeye pink”.
Some species just evolved to taste better with cream cheese, we don’t make the rules…
Yup. It doesn’t matter if a woman is black or white or whatever, they’re all pink on the inside where it matters. 😏 I’m talking about brains, of course.
Then why the heck we call them gray matter?
I don’t know about you but I like my women alive.
Dead on the inside, alive on the outside. Wait, I think that’s me. My bad.
Brains ARE grey, they just hold a LOT of blood, making them look pinkish. But the neurons are grey.
The brain also has white matter (the axons) which is white due to a fatty layer.
Different preservation methods, doncha know? Now sit right there as I tell you aaaaaall about why anything but formaldehyde is heresy…
Human: “Uh… you’ve seen us with dogs, right?”
Salmon: “Yah.”
Human: “And we rub their bellies, you know?”
Salmon: “Okay.”
Human “Well you all turn pink on your bellies when you’re swimming upstream to have one last gasp of orgasmic explosion over all your future kids before dying and we try to stop you and slit open that belly to rip out your organs and pop your major blood vessel before cutting you into chunks and throwing you in a fire.”
Salmon: "… Just what the Fuuuu-
Hey, you should see what we did to Mr. Steckerlfisch over there.
Now let the shrimp ask a Frenchman the same question.
“Why the long face?”
As my horny friend with 3 testicles says, “It’s all pink on the inside!”
If I had a nickel for every ET the Extra Testicle reference I have seen today…
That would be 2 nickels, more nickels than I have used as currency since I last watched “Still Smok’n”. Which is weird.
It’s umm sockeye salmon colour.
Humans: Shut up and eat more krill
