What Is Your Favorite Color?

I'm making this poll so that I can test a theory of mine. But it's a common enough question, I imagine other people might be curious about the numbers too.

What is your favorite color?

If you're one of those people who has their favorite color narrowed down to a particular tint or shade, just choose the basic color from which it's derived. If your favorite color is between two basic colors, such as turquoise or plum, decide which basic color your preference is closer to and select that one.

Because people are lazy, spammy posts in this thread will be given infractions. I'm saying it right here. Don't get all indignant and act like there was no warning. Not trying to be a jerk but a post consisting entirely of "Mine's red." just doesn't cut it.

If you post, try to discuss why you like the color you chose. Explain why you prefer it over other colors. Maybe there are pleasant memories attached to blue. Maybe you've always been a serious person and brown feels very natural. These things interest me.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You've got it backward. In artistic terms, black is the product of combining all colors. White is considered to be the absence of color.

Perhaps, as a filmmaker, you were thinking about it in terms of light, wherein white contains all color until it is refracted, and black is the absence of light?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
