Green Enough

Jerry would like to wear green tomorrow because it's St. Patrick's Day. Just one of those little social games that is fun to play along with. Unfortunately, he doesn't have any green clothes. So his solution was to try to convince me that his dark teal colored shirt is green.
I could have been sweet and said something like, oh sure that is greenish enough. If the subject was more serious, I might have played along as he sincerely tried to convince me that the color was forest green and I was color-blind. I wished him well, suggesting that nobody would really pinch him for not wearing green.
But I will.
