Funny but true: a complicated relationship with the colour blue

It is clear that some of us have a complicated relationship with the colour blue.

Light blue is okay if it's waterfall, similar to how dark blue is okay if it's Galaxy Starry night sky. 

But my Zia and I both agree that flight attendant dark blue is NOT okay. N2, MZ, and I agree that powder blue has become a very mean girl colour, unless paired with brown distinctly, and/or is a very organic texture.

The "nice mean girls" (not actually mean girls, just independent boss ladies with flair who don't have the internalized misogynistic view that femininity is a weakness) who defend everyone with spice and stick it to the mean mean girls are waging a good war against this appropriation, however.

Also this is another topic, but don't get me started on accountant green. Forest green is good, but accountant green especially on an accountant car is too far out for my own realms. (MC agrees, too.)

Speaking of which, her and Vine have helped me happily return to Japan blue (With a natural line by cream, and artistic and nature-cebtric arts placed in an organized way. Ugh, gotta love it.) My Dad, MC, and Infin and I are all such natural suckers for it.
