My high school opened in 1993. Our colors? Teal and Black, baby.
70s: Orange and brown
80s: Neon and pastels
90s: Teal
2000s: ??
Admiral, Sir, you are showing your age. We're already almost a quarter century in.
80s
90s: Teal
2000s: Off White
10s: Material Color Palette
20s: Pink
Pink? I've kinda had my head in the sand for a while, but is there really that much pink around nowadays?
I saw an interesting argument, I can't remember where, saying that bland white/beige has become so popular for interior decorating because we are inundated constantly with colourful advertising everywhere in our lives now. So, to be able to retreat to a home without vivid colours blasting you in the face everywhere you look is a relief.
I seem to remember neon pink and green were both still kind of a big deal for most of the 90s lol
And clear! Totally forgot about that one.
Well a lot of us went emo or goth, so black?
But then the skaters just went baggy, lots of girls went baby pink and hello kitty.
Every group had their own shape of jeans, we wore shirts on top of shirts.
A lot of it was just the cheapest stuff that could be made in the colours no one hated and it's not gone away since.
But it feels like every shirt had a logo or picture on so I'd say "graphics" was the colour of the 2000s.
If you were poor and didn't live anywhere near a major city ... it was more like:
1980s: were like 70s: Orange and brown
1990s: were like 80s: Neon and pastels AND 90s: Teal
2000s: all the fads, colours, designs and pop culture started to get mashed into one giant kaleidoscope monoculture
kaleidoscope monoculture
2010's+ this was rebranded as "rainbow"
Don’t forget it was the default windows 3.1 background color
And every other Windows OS right up to XP.
We still love our teal in San Jose
Hell yeah!
You and Anaheim aren’t so different
We used a lot of it on Teal'c
My 90s were neon green, yellow, pink, and purple. Teal is more of a meme/vaporwave thing.
The Windows 95 desktop default color!
I had this car, mom got it new and then gave it to me around 2001. I loved that car. It’s a little more green than this picture shows but super bright.
We sadly spent it all at all the 90's Taco Bells
The fact the Charlotte hornets aren't the main team in the sports square is unforgivable
Smh. People be disrespecting Grandmama. That's not cool.
I was talking about this with a coworker on monday, I hate basketball but I'm about to give in buy a hornets hat just because the logo is so fucking sick. If black dudes can wear baseball hats and not give a fuck about the team so can I but for basketball.
I had that beeper!
I wasn't sure why it was my favorite color until this post made me see clearly where I come from
I was just looking into this CNC with a familiar color scheme...
Man I remember loving the Anaheim ducks, even though I lived on the opposite of the world from any ice rinks or hockey culture, I guess I just liked the logo and I think I had a mega drive game with them or something.
Also my yak bak
