The color that came from space, it fell one day from the sky, or from… somewhere else. It got into the ground, the plants, the water, the animals, and… and us. It changed things, mutated reality around it, turned them into a form more like where it came from. I can’t picture it when I think about it, the color, it doesn’t exist in the human mind, it doesn’t belong here, but I still remember seeing it… and I can’t forget what it did. I’m still not sure if I ever got away from it, if you can get away from it… It was a color out of space…

My favourite colour is bright orange, like candy. Followed by bright yellow, like canary feathers.

The colour I hate is the nasty pumpkin-flesh yellow-orange ochre that exists between them.

Probably makes me hard to buy for that people think they're getting me a nice orange thing in 'my favourite colour' 🤮

I don't know if I have a least favorite overall - there is a color between brown and green I find distasteful but there are colors I like but not for certain things.

I cannot wear orange, or coral. They make me look like I am green and sick.

I can't stand red on walls. We moved into our house and the kitchen was painted red it was almost offensive. I think they were going for "Tuscan" . My grandma's house had a Red Room and I never liked it either.

Floors should not be gray planks pretending to be wood but clothing in that color can be so beautiful. I have a gray silk cami and it is like liquid mercury looking, so pretty.

Holy shit I had that very thought like two days ago. I always hate people who go on about favourite because well, I love all colours, really. Yeah, even beige or greys can be beautiful in the right context.

And so I thought to myself, "now hate, that would be interesting to know the reasons!" This is gonna be a fun read.

And to contribute I don't have a hated colour either but I do remember being absolutely annoyed at CSI Miami egregious use of colour contrasts. Like Nick with his red (orange) hair vs his blue clothes / eyes. The lab with its purple vs yellow hues. And I do remember a great episode where it all happened in the jungle and it just kept on hammering red vs green. It was funny at first, but it was so unsubtle, it really got to my nerves after a while.

That desert tan color the Army painted everything for 20 years.

Purple. Quick explanation: Ravens, R. Madrid, Újpest (Hungarian soccer).

Currently that "Black Cherry" that Schecter guitars is doing. I play lefthanded so there's not that many options when you want something slightly more specialized (in this case, a >=27"-scale 7-string guitar under 1000€), and Schecter apparently decided that they have to make their only lefty model in that configuration this fuck-ugly color/pattern. What happened to boring old black? I don't really like black guitars, either, but at least it looks neutral.

The color white, specifically in the context of clothing.

I'll pass on the coolest t shirt ever if its only available on white.

[-] Noodle07@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Orange, like what am I supposed to do with it ?

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Orange can be a really nice highlight color in an earth or jewel tone, but a bright orange is very easy to overdo

Just murky colours, khaki or camo or anything actual Murky or Lurky would wear, from Rainbow Brite, because I just look at myself and still say, yuck, you look like Murky and Lurky. Fun fact, just realised I named one of my kids after one of the colour kids! Another fun fact, when I was 3yo, I decided I was done with my home and I was running away to live with Rainbow Brite, I patiently waited for a Rainbow to appear in the sky, grabbed my favorite toy, said sorry to all the ones I had to leave behind, walked to the end of the street and, then realised I could go no further because I wasn't allowed to cross the road, so I, defeated, returned home.

My house had really gross almost nude colored accent walls and doors. It was awful. I painted over it before I moved in so I wouldn't have to see the disgusting color every day.

Orange. It's the "please look at me" color, it's grating and annoying

[-] moseschrute@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

0% saturated grey. Blue grays can be cool

[-] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

No hated color, but I dislike the number 6

Yellow is meh

Love brown though

[-] hkspowers@lemmy.today 2 points 1 year ago

Whatever that color scheme is for all the US national parks. They picked the ugliest shades of brown and green I have ever laid eyes on. Every time I go to a national park, the facilities painted in those colors gives me a deep depression...

Fuscia actually hurts the eyes

[-] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Mine is also brown, but I'm ok with wood and trees that are naturally that color: I just hate the thought that people would paint things/dress themselves in such a depressing color.

: wears all black, ironically:

[-] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

bugger green.
