color war?
When I bought my car, the dealer offered a choice of color, and I chose a hue called "sand pebble beige".
And then Drew made a joke about "that tan car that always parks in front of my house". When I corrected him, told him that the car was beige, he insisted that the car was tan.
It's become a running joke. He says "tan" and I say "beige".
So you know that I'll never tell him that the thesaurus lists "tan" and "beige" as synonyms.
And I'm certainly not going to tell him that the DMV classified my car as "tan".
