The colour craze

Underwater ink photography by Alberto Seveso
Have you noticed how nowadays noone uses simple colour names anymore.

Now all I hear is

Oxblood

Camel

Salmon

Brick

Rose

What is rose? Pink? Red? White? Yellow?

And these people who use these unnecessary new names aren't even designers.
When did the common man get so fancy?
And so complex.
And why is everything the new black?

Is it normal for everyone to know the colour of the blood of an ox?
Well, I'd just call it Maroon.
Or Wine when I'm trying to sound fancy.
