The expectation vs. reality of CSS color names! Three menacing dragons labeled "red", "green", and "blue" look absolutely terrifying, while the fourth one labeled "grey" is derping out with its tongue sticking out. Meanwhile, "darkred", "darkgreen", "darkblue", and "darkgrey" are just slightly more saturated versions of the same colors. Frontend devs know the pain of trying to explain to clients why "lightsalmon" and "papayawhip" are legitimate color options but we can't just have a sensible naming convention. Thanks W3C, very cool.
