Fuchsia.
No one ever spells it right: Color Survey Results – xkcd (scroll about halfway down to “Spelling and Spam”.)
Well, the last two colors are blue and green according to color naming, so bluegreen is before that, but some systems maybe use green and blueblack, but I don’t know which culture this is. In Japanese, “ao” covers both blue and green, but it is more commonly translated to “blue,” so green comes later. When a disambiguation or otherwise is needed, “midori” works for green.
And truly pronounced closer to fucks-ya.
“unsure-whether-boy-or-girl baby room color” is fun.
Some of you mention that maybe we’re seeing the different colors than the OP. But I agree with the OP that “[r]ed is so much more colorful, it has heart and warmth.” And I respond “so?” That doesn’t make it any more appealing compared to blue.
Fuchsia? No way! I would never wear that color! I much prefer fuscia. It’s sort of an off-brown.
Because it is bluetiful.
I think I started to prefer blue in the first place because Leonardo was my favorite ninja turtle.
The blue of glacial ice is soul-stirring. Photography can’t do it justice, but this is nice.
It would be fun if there were red glaciers as well: red, white, and blue, kind of like BombPops.
Anger he smiles tow’ring shiny metallic purple armor.
Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him.
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground.
Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted,
They quietly understand.
Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready
…
My red is so confident he flashes trophies of war
And ribbons of euphoria.
Orange is young, full of daring but very unsteady for the first go 'round.
My yellow in this case is not so mellow…
—Hendrix
Is that the same as obfuscia? Sort of an off-brown off-white off-green off-purple?
I like green, an emerald green, grass green.
Blue and yellow are cool too.
Small doses of red are okay.
Orange sucks snot through a straw, purple slightly sucks but lavender and violet are pretty.
I got behind a car the other day, brand new car. The owner was driving very very carefully ie: too damn slow.
It was the same yellow orange color as the double line in the street. I thought the car would be prettier with some dents. That was one fugly car.
A few years ago I almost bought an orange dress shirt. The clerk asked me what pants I’d be wearing with it. I said black slacks. He rightly pointed out that I could only get away with wearing that in late October.
I love my orange t-shirt though.
That must be a form of colorblindness. The Minnesota Vikings uniform is clearly purple. I have had the same argument with a few people that apparently share your color perception. It is very frustrating when you realize they aren’t just screwing with you and you will never truly agree.
This color? Most decidedly purple.
That’s what I thought, unless it’s some unlicensed knockoff. I imagine the Vikings jealously protect their color schemes, and mandate a specific Pantone color or something.
Any of the forms of colorblindness do not specifically shift the spectrum, nor cause much confusion between the specific colors of blue and purple (or violet at least). It might be possible, but as I’m guessing Sudden Kestrel is female, the odds of her being colorblind are incredibly low. Tetrachromacy (4 functional cones in females), maybe, although the jury is still working on that one. Naming can also differ between males and females as seen in the xkcd link, for various reasons.
The OP is clearly nuts. Blue is lovely. Blue makes me happy.
And you orange haters? Phooey to you. Orange is a happy color. Go hate on some beige.
Yeah, it is kinda hard sometimes to see what someone sees in something you don’t like. Isn’t it awesome that we have this message board where you can ask people to explain what they like about it so that you can understand things better?
I don’t think it’s out of the question that individual eyes can percept (why’s that not spelled correctly according to Firefox?) colours differently. When Trivial Pursuit was popular I had a hard time distinguishing between the orange and pink pieces. I had no idea I was weak in that spectrum until then.
Green, bitches, how is this even a discussion?
I try not to play favorites with colors, because I don’t want any of their feelings hurt, but I do have a soft spot for purple, which is the color of an organ engorged with blood, and I do like that.
that blue in post #45 is awesome as is MOL’s green
no way I could have just ONE favorite color for everything. I will wear a lovely robin’s egg blue T shirt or navy blue pants but if I had I horse I would prefer a reddish brown with black stockings.
for those of you hatin’ on orange, what about all the lovely shades in a campfire? didn’t think about that did you?
all the colors can be beautiful 
Maybe I just detect blues differently than my husband (and lots of other people, apparently). A lot of the Vikings garb (fuzzy Viking-head slippers, anyone?) they sell in stores is clearly purple, but their home uniforms have become progressively more blue over the years.
Huh. Upon further research, the NFL says the Vikings’ official purple is Pantone 269. Samples of that show up on my monitor as significantly more purple than the Vikings’ jerseys appear on my TV. However, when do an image search for Vikings jersey, some of the images look purple and some look blue. I even had my husband look at them, and he agrees.
The orange of the sun is pretty awesome. I like colors best when they have light.
No one has mentioned white, pro or con. Monet could paint a drop of white that I truly believe actually contains light. His blues weren’t too shabby either.
