Who decided blue is good and red is bad?

Red is way better than blue. Blue is boring. Blue says nothing to me.

Red is powerful, rebellious, passionate, and courageous.

Blue reminds me of accountants, business suits and banks. Blue is a scummy, deceptive color.

Prove me wrong NERDS. You know I'm correct.

Blue is the color of the deep sea, the clear sky, the navy's overalls, skinny jeans, ain't my lover, she's just a girl who says that I am the one.

In color psychology, blue is associated with security and stability. Red is pretty much as you described. I think it's less that you dislike blue and more that you personally find security and stability to be pretty boring. Like the bread in a sandwich: nice to have around i guess but never the reason you got the sandwich to begin with

Red stands out and has a primordial connection to danger in our lizard brains.

Red is the color of blood and fire.

Blue by itself is kinda lame but blue mixed in with other colors makes them much more beautiful. Like teal and purple.

Also blue gives us this butt

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I was gonna argue but then I realized that while blue is a beautiful color, it actually isn’t all that exciting. But that’s okay I love it anyway.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I agree but I must add that orange is worse

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Blue is the color for people who hate color
