kagi’s ai answer is okay…

White crayons serve several useful purposes in art and crafts, despite often being perceived as less versatile than their colored counterparts. Here are some key uses:

• Highlighting and Detailing: White crayons can be used to create highlights in drawings, such as white clouds on a blue sky or light reflections on surfaces12.
• Working on Dark Paper: They are particularly effective when used on dark or colored paper, where they can stand out and add contrast3.
• Blending and Lightening Colors: White crayons can blend with other colors to create lighter shades and smooth transitions. This technique is useful for achieving gradients and softening edges in artwork45.
• Coloring Easter Eggs: They can be used to draw designs on eggs before dyeing, as the wax will resist the dye, creating patterns3.
• Crayon Resist Techniques: In watercolor projects, white crayons can be used to draw designs that will resist the paint, allowing for creative effects6.

Overall, while white crayons may seem less useful at first glance, they play a significant role in enhancing artistic expression and creativity.

“Flesh” crayola crayons were not white, but still something problematic.

I feel like this is a rich vein of humor, but I cannot recall specific examples.

Urban Dictionary: white crayon

Progessive! Crayola finally acknowledges the white crayon is useless

If you have summer and winter tires you have to mark the position of them before storage. move tires from the left to the right it’s a no-no, and also you have to swap front and rear.

Considering that 99% off her tweets for the last few weeks are about Kamala’s race I suspect she was trying to say something only she can understand.

Trump is a defective product?

I’m probably just an old pedant, but “all paper isn’t white” means something different from “not all paper is white”. It’s definitely not just this author, it’s become incredibly widespread, our whole culture has forgotten how negatives work.

You should tell that to Shakespeare.

Yes, you probably are. No one’s confused* in that context by “all paper isn’t white.”

*That’s my rule for when to refrain from voicing my pedantry.

If all English speaking culture has forgotten how negatives work, then that’s not actually how they work in English. I think you are looking for Lojban instead.
