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.
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.
That mustardy-green color from the 70s and early 80s. Just looks weird on furniture.
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.
Brownish green
It"s all about the medium its on though. I was about to say bright green as there are these houses nearby of this playground bright green color and I hate them but then a thin leaf of the same color is absolutely beautiful. So it really depends what's being colored.
Dark yellow! Yellow is inherently bright and sunny, when you try to make it dark it becomes a hideous contradiction.
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.
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.
bugger green.
Mine would be pink, I think
Forest green.
Like what the fuck were they thinking with that one.
