My buddies were certain that the lead singer was flirting with me. Not homophobic but as you can imagine they never let me forget that.

If coloring in a coloring book with the correct pressures you can still create a picture with reasonable variations in greyscale to somewhat replicate a multi-colored picture. Okay now I gotta go take a nap.

(74,600 posts)Maybe black. 2 of my electric guitars are red, 2 are black.
I wear nothing but black pants, but have 5 different shades of red sweaters. (In fact, I'm wearing black & red right now.)
I guess I can't choose.
I'll pick the red one, but I'm stealing the black one and hiding it in my pocket.

Between the two, my favorite depends upon how I'm feeling at the time.
I once had a co-worker ask me in the parking lot "dont you ever wear any other color besides purple?" which I thought was strange since although I did wear it often, it wasn't every single day.

(40,261 posts)I love ALL colors, though! A lot of people paint all their walls eggshell or beige & that would drive me crazy!! Here's a mnemonic for remembering the sequence of colors, from the outside to the inside of a rainbow. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.

Back in the day of editing documents, we were each given a specific color to make our comments in. My color was Green. So, Green is my color.
