is your most favorite color, and what is your least favorite color? My cats are curious.

On edit: Red/shades of red, and green.

9. Especially if it's a Beige with too much yellow...
It looks like it needs to be repainted. :yick:

13. Exactly. The sallow skin color - one of our neighbors painted
their front steps that color. The rest of the house house is spruce green. :puke:

17. I'm an earth-tone person and hate beige as well
There are plenty of tans, taupes, and darker shades that put "beige" to shame.

Favorite: a deep, rich, warm, chocolaty brown.

5. I know the feeling about those "short people."
Mine usually bring a few extra with them. (And two of them aren't that short anymore, so it can feel really crowded.)

My favorite "color" is probably black. I can't say that there is any color I don't like. It all depends on the context...Pink is nice on a rose, but probably not for my sofa. I wear a lot of blue, but would never paint my walls that color. :shrug:

7. That makes sense. I used to wear almost exclusively black and
I loved it, but my decor was pink/red/brown.

11. That depends.
My favorite color is usually shades of dark green, though it varies.

My least favorite color is usually anything florescent. Especially florescent green.

14. Good point about the fluorescents.
I remember when they were in style for clothing. Bad times.

16. Very bad times.
Let's hope that the retro-fashion trends never rediscover those particular colors. :puke:

23. Green and green!
I like deep rich greens, and I hate baby shit green. I also hate easter pastels, ick...they remind of the time when my dog hurled after eating a pack of jelly beans.

29. Lavender and orange
Actually I like almost all colors in one way or another. But lavender/lilac is truly my most favorite.

34. It is a beautiful color; I agree. Do you ever wear it?
Orange I dislike as much as green, except at Halloween and on certain fruits.

35. I do have several shirts of that hue
One of the things I miss most about sleeping upstairs is my lavender walls. Very calming.

and the walls there are papered in reddish/lavender. I miss it!

41. You're living in the playroom?
Come live with me. There's another spare bedroom next to mine though I'm afraid it's not heated.

Is there a bathroom in your vicinity? I think I've asked that. No?

42. LoL. I like toys.
bwahahaha.

No bathroom. Which sucks. I have to walk upstairs and use the powder room. It also very cold, which I think I've mentioned. But I have two space heaters I'm using to warm me up. Ahhhh, the charmed life, eh?

Can hardly smell the litterboxes any more.

Erp.
