I am already annoyed at the ineveitble umm actually replies about salmon’s not being exactly the color salmon and humans not being the same color either. Pre-pissed
We pink inside too :(

The bigger “Umm, actually” is that during spawning season, their outsides are that color.
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
And when it isn’t their spawning season, you’re not very likely to see them in the wild, so it kinda makes sense that people associated the colour with the fish.

Wow, TIL.

Achually it’s named after Salmon Rushdie and is the true colour of Satan’s flesh.

Yup. It doesn’t matter if a woman is black or white or whatever, they’re all pink on the inside where it matters. 😏 I’m talking about brains, of course.
Stovetop@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Then why the heck we call them gray matter?
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 5 days ago
Brains ARE grey, they just hold a LOT of blood, making them look pink. But the neurons are grey.
The brain also has white matter (the axons) which is white due to a fatty layer.

Some species just evolved to taste better with cream cheese, we don’t make the rules…

D’y’know how many fish are “silvery-blue”, salmon?? Get over yourself, and be glad we didn’t name the color “sockeye pink”.
Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 days ago
since when is salmon pink? it’s very obviously orange, tuna is pink.
surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 4 days ago
You need to adjust your RGB settings. Tweak them until the salmon is pink-orange and not orange-pink.
Croquette@sh.itjust.works 4 days ago
Salmon pink is a real color. But I think it refers to the cooked salmon, and not raw salmon.
Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 days ago
but cooked salmon is either pale orange (the middle) or dark orange (the outside)?
FeatherConstrictor@sh.itjust.works 4 days ago
Colors are such a subjective experience! I would definitely classify salmon as pink, but now that you say it u can see why another person might classify it as orange. It would never have occured to me naturally though.
Isn’t that cool?

Human: “Uh… you’ve seen us with dogs, right?”
Salmon: “Yah.”
Human: “And we rub there bellies, you know?”
Salmon: “Okay.”
Human “Well you all turn pink on your bellies when you’re swimming upstream to have one last gasp of orgasmic explosion over all your future kids before dying and we try to stop you and slit open that belly to rip out your organs and pop your major blood vessel before throwing you in a fire.”
Salmon: "… Just what the Fuuuu-

Farrow & Ball go further by just calling their salmon paint colour “Dead Salmon”.

As my horny friend with 3 testicles says, “It’s all pink on the inside!”
zarathustrad@lemmy.world 5 days ago
If I had a nickel for every ET the Extra Testicle reference I have seen today…
That would be 2 nickels, more nickels than I have used as currency since I last watched “Still Smok’n”. Which is weird.

If it ain’t pink on the inside you better run away fast as you can

The extra terrestrials which tractor beam specimens up also use chemicals to make our flesh more appealing, nothing wrong here.

Pink salmon have a kinda pinkish stripe on them
youvegotmoxie@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Because the meat is pink? Seems simple to understand for anyone who’s been to the seafood counter at a grocery store

Aaactually salmon can’t talk
alekwithak@lemmy.world 5 days ago
That’s not true, I caught one the other day who promised to grant me wishes if I let it go. He wasn’t lying but the wishes eventually led to my downfall so now I have a hard time trusting anyone even partially aquatic.
SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 days ago
Did his salmon friends rob your house while he distracted you with the wishes? Happened to me one time. Just wanna make sure it wasn’t the same salmon.
HikingVet@lemmy.ca 5 days ago
Last time a fish tried to grant me a wish, I cut its head off, gut, filet, pan sear on med high till throughly cooked and seasoned with a side of fiddleheads. Wish granted.

I think, upon closer inspection, you’ll find that you were actually talking to a large mouth bass named Billy. Excellent singer too.
