Colourful Personalities

Try to imagine everyday colours trying to have a civil conversation together. This is what I came up with.1

PURPLE: I like purple.
BLUE: I like blue.
PINK: I like yellow.
ORANGE: But you're pink!
YELLOW: Shut-up orange, you're such a fruit!
GREEN: Oooo disssed!
BROWN: Come on man, are you gonna take that crap lying down?!
GOLD: It amuses me when brown uses crap in a sentence. Considering that's the colour he actually is.
BROWN: Oh nice! Toilet humour! Man all you shiny colours are so up yourselves.
SILVER: Don't you dare put me in with him! He's always making me look second best.
GOLD: Only because you totally are.
BRONZE: You don't have to be so mean, gold. No wonder you don't have any friends.
GOLD: Ah. The sparkly brown finally speaks. Haven't you ever heard the saying, "you can cover a turd in glitter, but it still can't be anything else bar a turd?"
BROWN: Oh. That. Is. IT!
WHITE: Please try to calm yourself Brown. Remember, words are all he has now. 2

(Long Pause)3

BROWN: Fine, I'll just have to ignore him.
FUSCIA: Good, everybody else does.
GREEN: Hey Fuscia, when'd you get here?
FUSCIA: Pink and purple escorted me in just a second ago.
PINK: She's very pretty isn't she?
BLUE: I'll say.
BLACK: Pink is prettier.
GREEN: Yeah but you're biased. You've been partnered with pink since the beginning. None of us ever stood a chance.
OLIVE: I hear ya.
BLACK: You're just jealous because nobody ever uses you. The lonely, unwanted colour in the background that does nothing but take up room.
WHITE: Black!
OLIVE: What? As apposed to everybody using you?! Let's face it, you're the tramp stamp of all colours.4

(Several colours gasp)5

RED: Now, hold on. I may have just arrived but even if I missed some kind of antagonism, that insult was way outta line.
GREY: Oh shut it, Red! We all know you have the hots for Black, you pretty much hang off his frigg'n shoulders!
GREEN: Is that why she rejected you Grey?6

(Awkward Silence)7

BLUE: Oh Red, girl, that's so cruel.
ORANGE: Yeah, she rejected me as well. Said that our colours clashed. Sheesh what a bi-
WHITE: Orange! That language is uncalled for.
GREY: Shut your mouth you stupid goody-goody. You don't understand what we're going through at all!
YELLOW: Hey, don't be mean to white. She's a good friend of mine.
WHITE: Thanks.
BLACK: Why don't you and Yellow just shut the hell up? It's her fault these arguments even started!
PURPLE: It is not!
PINK: Don't even worry about it Purple. Black has been fighting with white since forever. Always trying to outsmart and overthrow her.
YELLOW: So true.
FUSCIA: It's quite sad really.
BLUE: What is this? Gang up on Black day?8

(Horrified Silence)9

.......10

GREEN: Oh, erm, I think I'd better go. I don't want this turning into a racial argument.
BLACK: OH PLEASE! We're all colours for pete's sake! Racial prejudice is what we're all about!
GOLD: Black's got a point you know.
SILVER: GRRRR! Would somebody please shut him up?11

Author notes

As you can see, my mind tends to wander to a very strange and dangerous place when I'm bored. But I have to admit, I found this pretty funny.

    i love that!!!!!! so cool, your mind sounds a bit like mine only i never have paper around when such thoughts happen to me and it so happens i have a short, short-term memory span Love it!! Very creative, it's awesome...i wonder if there is a way to "favorite" this...?

  • hahaha, that was really creative. I loved the first part were Purple said 'i like purple' and then blue said 'i like blue' and then pink said 'i like yellow'. It was all really funny though. You should get bored more often, especially if this is the kinda stuff you produce!

    Witty and Hilarious

    I love the idea of all the colours having different personalities and how some have formed alliances. It makes me really think about colours more now!
    That really captured my interest.

  • Wow

    This is one of the most original pieces of written work I have seen so far in SW.

    It is very amusing, fun and interesting.

    I was 100% hooked on your story.

    The language and expressions used feel so human, so common. It definitely resembles a natural, real conversation with hints of humour all the way.

    You put great points across whilst using colours as speakers.

    Please, do continue to work on it, I want to read more of it. It's mouth watering and very comical.

    Absolutely great.

    LMFAO
    Wow. That is glorious beyond means. *wipes a tear*
    I just don't know what to say about it. xDD

    Great imagination, great conversation, and I appreciate your entering my contest. Good luck. xD

  • the Best!

    Can't be improved upon. I love it. Great fun. I wish I had thought of it. I have envy of your imagination!

  • Random Alert!

    But I like random. Random is amazing. This is pretty funny!

    9 and a 1/2 out of 10

    I thought it was very funny, in a good way! I really liked it but it could be a bit happier if you took the swearing out of it. But that is just my opinion! Anyway, I loved it! I have never read something like that before. How did you come up with that idea of colours talking to each other? You must have a good imagination! I think this is very good and I'm sure everyone else would agree and liked reading it. I would really like to see another conversation of the colours because I am dying to reading more! But its just an idea! As I have already said, I loved it; brilliant, creative, and unique!

    Great Job!

    P.S Don't forget to look at my stories please! And if its not too much trouble, please leave a comment because I would like to know what you think. Thanks!

    I'm not adding finalists till the contest gets over, so I don't want to make any kind of promises. Just like to say it was a good story, and best of luck! (The colours get a bit confusing sometimes. )

      Thanx for the awesomely long comment haha as if I would forget your awesome writing prowess my friend. I will edit my Dracosapiens and stop by your page as soon I can. Lol it's just a competition I'll survive.

  • This was funny, I really enjoyed it, however it is nothing what the contest is looking for and I am going to have to DQ it. But, I want you to know that I thought it was hilarious and really enjoyed reading it. Man, those colors can be mean!

    "GANG UP ON BLACK DAY"
    This was hillarious. Just so you know I hate gold, too yellowy I love silver, especially with Blue.
    I like white and black together. Olive is a good color for a purse or belt. Fusia goes good with purple or lime green (in my head it does, not for clothes though). Red and baige are awesome.
    Yellow and brown are good.
    And if anything I'll put bronze while wearing a red dress.

    I thought this was very witty...

    ...as it wasn't hitting the reader over the head with humor, but the simple lay out really aided to the subtlety of the comedy. The dialogue was funny with out trying too hard, with the odd aside to the humanities; such as "BLACK: OH PLEASE! We're all colours for pete's sake! Racial prejudice is what we're all about!" I thought it was very clever and very refreshing.

    Wow!

    That was so funny to read! This is the most random thing I've read on this site, but the funniness adds a big boost to it. Very unique. But I must say that I would have never thought about colors really talking to each other... =\
    Good job, though, no doubt! ^.^

    Interesting. The word games are fun.

    I do wonder why they all sound like teenagers though. Also, black should be way cooler.

      It seems everybody has it in for the way I have portrayed their colour.

  • I thought this matched the colors well. My favorite color (that would be blue) behaved quite immaturely... Lolz.

    Thanks for posting this -- it was funny. ^_^

      Really?

      That was the whole point. He was the immature boy (blue is the typical dude colour anyway). Excellent! I am so glad you got that!

  • Very amusing! I always think colors and numbers have personalities of their own, also.
    i thought this was funny, too.

      I'm glad somebody got it. it was kind of an intellectual funny not a laugh out loud kind of funny. If you get my drift.
