I've never heard anyone say that their favorite color is brown.

In fact, I've seen people preferring blue M&M's over the brown ones even though they taste the same!

So I'm wondering - is anyone's favorite color brown??

Only when it's on the chocolate. [Cool]

I actually like different colors in different situations / on different things, I don't think I have a favourite one...

For example: I like to dress in green. But I like to see girls dressed in red or orange, you know, hot colors. (Who doesn't ?!) And I'll always appreciate a clear blue sky.

But brown ?!

Why are you doing the combined British/US English?

You said favourite and color.

It's either

favorite and color

or

favourite and colour.

You can't just combine them! [Mad]

Because I'm not an English native speaker, and I write the words the way they come to me. So my favourite way to write color is without a 'u', as you can see above [Wink]

Brown is one of my favorite colors to wear.

I think brown M&Ms are the best.

Brown is my favorite color when it's on brownies, chocolate cake, and dirt.

Otherwise, I like other colors better, but on the above, brown is really best. (OK, red dirt is okay, too, if you're in an area that has lots of clay in the composition.)

I find brown to be a very comforting color. It's nice on skirts and shoes, and in things like oak and chocolate. I find the whole favorite color thing to be somewhat false, though...I like to look at the color green, wear the color burgundy, and be in yellow-colored rooms. Does that mean I have three favorite colors? [Dont Know]

How do you define your favorite color, anyway? For me, brown brings up a series of associations I find pleasant.

I grew up in southern California - so there is something very comforting to me about brown hillsides, as opposed to green ones. Now I live in central California, where everything out in the country but the hills is relentlessly green from spring through harvest time. Vines, trees, all the crops. It's about this time of year, as a matter of fact, that I get really tired of seeing all that green everywhere.

Brown is a natural color, and makes me feel earthy and warm. I also have hazel eyes, and it brings out the green. So does wearing green, so I don't really understand why it doesn't bring out the brown, but there you have it.

O_o

You have hazel eyes too, Elizabeth?
 
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
 
Yes, I do.
you are not a Scorpio, though.

Right?
 
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
 
Nope. Aries.
 
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
 
OK. Phew.
 
Posted by littlemissattitude (Member # 4514) on :
 
That makes three of us with hazel eyes. [Smile] Oh, and Virgo here.

Brown is my favorite color! It's the color of rich earth, of many mammals, of the family room in the house where I grew up, a color that looks good on me, the color of my eyes and hair, the color of wood.

Unfortunately, my husband has brown issues, and he inevitably thinks of a rather malodorous brown substance whenever I wear it.

My eyes are brown/olive green hazel eyes. Oh, and I'm a Virgo, too.

Jenny, Monkeys are sometimes brown, and they tend to throw that substance.

[Smile]

But, I Agree about it being the color of Earth.

Brown is the color of poop.
I am brown from head to toe.
My favorite color is yellow.

Our son insists that his favorite colors are red and brown. This has been consistent for at least a year now. Just the other day he admitted to me that he thought blue was prettier than red. (This after watching Tron) So I asked him if he still liked red. He said, "No, so I guess brown is my favorite color."

Last night I was looking at all the shades of brown hair for my children and some of their cousins. It was really interesting to consider the range. Later on, my brother mentioned that I'm the only one who's hair is actually black.

When I was in second grade, my favorite colors were brown and yellow. All my outfits, my room, everything was brown and yellow.

Now I have no idea what possesed me.
 
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
 
I fear conformity. Hence, my favorite color is the least favorite of the populace.

"Brown is the color of poop.

Yellow is, unfortunately, also the color of poop.

Ummm...I'm sorry to hear that. I've heard of green, blue, and purple, but never yellow. I"m pretty sure I don't want to know.
