    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.

    When light gray is used for a background to call it a “dark theme”, instead of just going #000000

    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.

    Neon/fluorescent colors. For a highlighter color, sure in small doses. For everything else… It’s not for me. It just overwhelms me.

    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.

        Shouldn’t look too institutional so he went with grey? I associate grey with institutions so heavily. It’s cubicle color.

        That said, I’m a huge fan of the old great society era government building style
