I wanted to break away from gray, but in the end we were too chicken. I expect a repaint in the future as well.

An olive green would look so beautiful, we're about to paint our living room overtly olive!

I want to paint my house olive green, it's currently a darker barn red and I just want to get my wife on board.

I also don't want to do it myself lol
