The Puce Llama? That doesn't sound right. Can't we pick a color that's not purple?
 
user61230
N-not... purple? You... you don't like... purple? [sniffle]

What did purple ever do to you?
(feel free to propose other ideas. :P)

Note that the disturbing "green llama" video (here: youtube.com/watch?v=xe_t_gpr0KI) ends with a pink llama, so watch out!

@Emrakul Mauve, Ruler of the Color Spectrum, shall unfailingly squash your pitiful Puce into microscopic Puce-pieces until it is no more!

Why was this room called The Green Llama in the first place? I hope it was not because of the YouTube videos.

Can someone explain to me what the starred messages on the righthand side even are? I can't seem to find a description. D:
Also I don't hate the idea of "The Scarlet Llama"

@BaileyM See this page. Basically, it means someone thought the messages were useful/interesting.
My sister had that suggestion this morning. It's not too bad.

Bailey M
Thank you, that was exactly what I was looking for!
And scarlet certainly sounds better than puce, anyways...

My sister has a bunch of crazy ideas, including but not limited to: The Dancing Llama, The Dead Llama, The Flea-Infested Llama, The Ghost Llama, and changing my profile pic to her favorite cartoon character. Wonder why she insists on the llama being in a very pitiful state. :P

@leoll2 Surely the turquoise porpoise was the go to there?
I'm also a fan of the ecru emu.

"The magenta placenta"

That's just wrong

If we're trying to find something less disturbing than "The Green Llama"... well, I think I've gone in the wrong direction.

What don't people like about puce? [sniffle]
 
Bailey M

It doesn't roll off the tongue quite like mauve does...rather, it collapses off the tongue in a dead heap that taints the rest of the sentence.
Also, it's french for "flea"!
 
user61230
But... well, well neither does the Mauve Llama! Ha.
 
user61230
Ahaha is it actually? That's hilarious.
 
Bailey M
Bailey M
Apparently. I didn't actually know what color Puce was, so I googled it
 
user61230
I wonder if the etymology is connected
 
user61230
4:15 PM
....it is. Apparently, in the 18th century, it was France's word for "flea-colored"
 
Bailey M
Bailey M
that's, uh
kind of gross!
 
user61230
Iunno. "The Flea-Colored Llama" does roll off the tongue pretty well...
 
Bailey M
Bailey M
Interesting that @mmkin
er, @mmking was recommended "The Flea-Infested Llama"
 
user61230
...ha! (Need to go; will be back in a while.)
 
Bailey M
Bailey M
Maybe fleas are simply in this llama's destiny.

We could have a chatroom name that's actually something puzzling-related, either as well as or instead of being puzzling in itself.
How about "Why?"

What's so great about llamas?

"What's so great about llamas?" is now my nomination for the room name.
