Colors
There were some young men who grew up in poor families on old farms in a small town. As a result, their access to fashion trends was extremely limited. For the most part, the people in that old town had only known overalls.
One day while the young men were in town considering new pairs of overalls for themsleves, they happened upon a traveling peddler that introduced them to designer clothing. The myriad shapes and colors that these new clothes had to offer overwhelmed them as they pondered what they had been missing all their lives. So they took a large portion of the money they had allotted for such things and purchased the garments of the colors that appealed to them most. They proudly displayed their new attire everywhere they went. Some of the other townspeople saw the beauty of these new outfits themselves and decided to follow suit.
They began to exclaim how wonderful it would be if everyone in the town would wear colors just as they did! At first they thought of how drab the overall clad people’s lives seemed and desired to introduce them to a brighter way of life. However, they gradually began to look down upon the overall townspeople and criticized them for their choice of attire. Some of the residents resented them and refused to ditch their overalls so to not be associated with such mockers. Eventually, those who preferred the red clothes began to consider their own choice of colors best. It also happened with those who chose the yellow clothes, the green clothes, the blue clothes, and the same with all the others.
Now the children of those that preferred red associate mainly with others that prefer red, the yellow with the yellow, the green with the green, the blue with the blue, and the same with the others. The color groups often think of themselves as the true colors while maintaining a rather dim view of the others. They are known to put each other in a bad light, and allign only when discussing how the overall-clad citizens should start wearing color.
And in despite of it all, more color groups continue to be added to this day.
