Used to be Purple, then it was Brown… it’s probably still Brown, although I like Green a lot too. Especially that retro-green (“pea green”)… and that, _with_ Brown… whoa baby! ---

Blue. Always and forever. But to wear, definitely black. Not all black, but black shirts with jeans. I like the way it goes with the blonde hair and black glasses I have. Hate purple and orange. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-is-your-favourite-colour/328559.md?page=2)
