Chronomatopoeia 

Substituting "chron" for a syllable in a word, to make a weed-related pun, with a self-referential meaning.
"The Democratic Republic of Chrongo" is a chronomatopoeia.

Chromatography 

Chromatography is a chemical method to find out the type and/or the amount of chemical substances in a gas or a solution.
The main principle of chromatography is that the gas/solution slowly spreads over a "stationary phase" (for example a piece of paper). Since different substances travel with different speed, the compounds of the gas/solution split up while spreading through the stationary phase and can be measured seperately.
Guy: "Hey, what kind of stuff is in those gas cylinders?"
Scientist: "Let's do a chromatography to find out".

(Hours later)
Scientist: "Okay, that gas consists of 60% nitrous oxide and 40% hydrogen"
Guy: "Amazing"

Chromatose 

The condition(adj, v) of experiencing decision paralysis when choosing a color.

A design flaw.

Often occurring in contact with a color picker.

Phase 1 starts with the uncertainty between HSL, HSV, and RGB.

Phase 2 starts with picking your first color
Phase n starts with picking your (n-1)th color
I can't art because I got chromatose.

Designing a website is easier if you use premade color palettes, because you can avoid becoming chromatose..

One would think -- but it just defers the chromatosing to choosing between multiple color pallets.
