    Pretty sure I've seen shag carpet from the 70's in that exact shade.

    It's a weirdly common color for interior paint jobs in old houses, too. Kitchens and things.

    Yellow. Almost all yellow painted/colored things make me mad. Yellow flowers do not have the same effect, however.

    So years ago I was into mountain biking, and decided I was going to buy a decent bike, well the model I liked was sold out but the guy said " if your ok with yellow I've got one in the back we can't sell" ended up getting the bike I wanted, in yellow, and he gave me $50 off. I started telling everyone yellow was my favorite color and at this point it really is. It's fun cause it is probably the least favorite color so I'm constantly find things in yellow when the other colors are sold out,also yellow things end up in discount bins. It's been 25 years now and I honestly get a happy feeling when I find something I want in yellow.

    You know when You have a couple different leftover paints but You need to paint something bigger and You don't really care how it will look? So You just mix them all together with some white and slap that on? It never comes out as a pretty colour, always some vile shade of brown. I once rented an apartment clearly painted like that. Every wall was the same colour. Pale, pinkish brown.

    since i got into art i don't dislike any colour, i do dislike how they sometimes get used though - puke yellow-green might be ugly as the base, but as a highlight to something green it's very pretty!

    I really like this trend I'm seeing about posts asking for least fav things. Personally, mine is:

    Grey.

    Everything is fucking grey these days. It's the only colour they seem to know to build with. Need to paint a window, door, fence, any portion of the building that isn't brick? Grey!

    Bloody miserable.

    I hate the way magenta reveals the subjective nature of how we interpret wavelengths of light as colors.

    Octarine. Some people say it's beautiful, but I just can't see it

    Mental health yellow and green. That stupid mint green. Please never show me those colors again

    I strongly dislike red unless it is a pinkish or purplish red in which case I really like it. I will agree that beige is boring but I don't hate it. Otherwise I like every other color, including stereotypically ugly colors like puke green.

    Dark yellow! Yellow is inherently bright and sunny, when you try to make it dark it becomes a hideous contradiction.

    What is this Brown you speak of? Do you mean Dark Orange?

    I love every color but the context is everything.

  • [–] 6 points 10 months ago

    That is a much difficult question than I initially thought. I think it is the high saturated slightly dark orange. Mainly because I do some design works, and it is bloody difficult to find a matching color. So far I found only white or black.

    That mustardy-green color from the 70s and early 80s. Just looks weird on furniture.

    yellow

    it's aggressive, but not in a good way, like red

    Pink. I really don't like pink, nor most red shades.

    Pastels, can I just loathe all pastels? Because I do.

    Red.

    It's so loud, obnoxious and in your face, I hate it.

    It's only somewhat acceptable on very small things, tiny accents etc.

    And I have a theory hear me out: no car in the world looks the best in red, there is always another color that looks better. Yes, even Ferraris and Alfas. Prove me wrong.

    my least favorite is approximately #e3ff00

    also i dislike grays becsuse they're in so many places they have no business being in, gray is too overused.

    i love cyan, light bluish green and turquoise. purple is fine too, pink is ok. weird yellow green is not a good color.

    I used to love grey. And then sometime in the mid-2000's, automakers decided that they loved it too. And every damn vehicle on the road was grey.

    Then, we got a new CEO at work. And he thought our facilities needed a refresh, but shouldn't look "institutional".

    So every damn surface was painted grey with a darker shade of grey for the trim. It felt like I was working on a WW2 battleship. In black and white.

    Now I can't fucking stand it.

    I particularly dislike that Pepto Bismol Hot Pink color. It hurts my eyes to look at it. It's tacky, it's gaudy, and the fact that it causes me actual physical pain in large enough quantities is enough for me to dislike it.
