Gray and grey are different colors. Gray smells plasticky like hot car like when you open an old car on a 105*F afternoon and the fumes wafting up from the poly-blend seats burn your nose. It hurts like really long drives or like being stuck in assembly or church if you’re not religious. Grey is colder and windier and smells kinda icey. It’s kinda weighty but like dense fog. Grey is the one you see in movies shot on film. Gray has a forest/army green quality to it, but grey has a charcoaliness to it which makes it the truer color to me. Gray is also evil. Grey is okay like he’s not my bestie but he doesn’t want to kill me. Gray wants to kill me. I have always believed this
