i don't really have a favorite color
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Saturday, 25 April 2009 06:02 (fifteen years ago) link
i wear black because it's slimming and badass
but i wouldn't want, say, an apartment where all the walls are painted black
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Saturday, 25 April 2009 06:04 (fifteen years ago) link
No, most of mine are that off-white bumpy color, but I do have a nice display wall in the bedroom that's bright red, and I'm kind of proud of it.

Man, I can't possibly choose - every color looks fantastic in the right circumstances. This poll is going to take a lot of thinking. Good call with the end-of-July closing date.

BROWN although maybe would have picked gold if it was there. Blame being born in the 70s.

The time stamps give the whole game away.
Sorry, though. Of course I was talking a pile of shit every step of the way. I wonder if I do it just to clear away cobwebs. Like when you have really weird dreams about bratwurst and Ed Harris and shit.

You just sounded so angry over colors! The internet is strange, though.

Heavens no, I'm not ANGRY over colors. Piss-taking, sure.

I have prejudices against blue. In fact I have a desktop background that I put up sometimes so I don't get all panty-twisted over everyone wanting everything to be blue all the time. It says, "Blue is not the enemy."

Actually... I think I DO hate blue sky. Or at least I fear it, because that's where sun comes from. Somewhere there's a picture of 14-yr-old me at the beach in a turtleneck.

Y'know it's funny on the same tip I adore blue and especially sky and sea blue but could never bring myself to vote for it because it's also the colour of the Tories.

It's the color of rejected balls.

purple is the colour of depression. no wonder i knit so many things in that colour until my husband demanded i stop using purply yarn. hah

is it the color of depression?
becuz i've come to understand that my inner color is a deep smoky purple
but it's also supposed to be the color of grandeur

It is also the color of motherfuking PRINCE (bcz he is such a hueg Vikings fan).

Red. Burnt orange. Burnt red. Mostly red.
Red does something funny to me, especially if it's dancing about somewhere near a smokey sky blue.

orange is a good food color. I remember going through a phase in high school when all I wanted was orange food.

also, the color orange is basically proof god doesn't exist.

― CaptainLorax, Saturday, 1 August 2009 03:04 (fourteen years ago) link
I've been into orange lately. Yellow is very interesting to me conceptually. It looks so different from red and green! Whereas I can grasp cyan as a mix of green and blue, and purple as a mix of red and blue.

I can grasp cyan as a mix of green and blue
I still can't grasp additive colors on an intuitive level, probably because I had 'green = yellow + blue' drilled into my head by 10+ years of grade school art teachers (and a school play about red blue & yellow working together as a team). I wonder if I would benefit from deprogramming.
