SecretSam Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Weird question, but hey: does anyone else avoid buying things that are blue - I'm talking cars, etc. - for example, I simply won't buy a blue car. Partly because I owned an unreliable POS that happened to be blue, but also because...well, you know. 3 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFCGav Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 If I'm buying item, and item comes in a range of colours, I never get the blue. Something I thought I'd grow out of but just didn't. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheReds Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Not me personally, but I do know one of the blue few who refuses to get anything red, refuses to shop in Sainsburys (because it was all their fault why they haven't got a new Stadium), and he also refused to go to Ashton Gate for his Covid jab!

Barrs Court Red Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 I like the colour blue. Green though. Urgh. While I love green scenery, anything else that is green is an abomination and should be destroyed, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOZZYBCFC Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 I love the colour blue and it suits my colouring. However, I hate that fact and would rather it be red!! Obviously I wear red on match days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Never crosses my mind . I would never buy a quartered shirt, specially in that horrible blue, but it's not like 'they' are much more than an after thought. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderingred Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 (edited) I’m okay with other shades of blue but there’s a distinctive blue that reminds me of them which I really don’t like. I’ll avoid buying things in that shade. I know an old timer who takes it to another level. As far as I know, he’s refused to ever let a Sag into his house.. he even asks repairmen before they come in to make sure.

Port Said Red Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 It depends on the shade of blue. I am looking to change my car and saw one of the model I am looking at in a very bright blue and thought it looked good, and as my wife always says "would be easy to find in the car park . If it was more "Tesco bag" blue I would think twice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red_Alligator Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 On the subject of no blue, it's good to see that the new edition of Bristol Monopoly does not include the Gas, but does include us of course - and Bristol Manor Farm. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Before my retirement I didn’t see any men wearing red suits at work. Red / blue is generally limited to football and doesn’t influence people’s lives outside of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodjias Wrist Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 No they don't own the colour or the pirate image so got no problem wearing blue. But if you are referring to playing, watching football or watching city i wont wear blue obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledAjax Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Being colourblind means the "purple" kits that we have tend to look blue, so in my world we've worn it as a kit on a few occasions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse With No Name Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Funny thing this came up. When I was younger and Penguin bars came in packs of 8 with two red, two blue, two green and two yellow wrappers, I refused to eat the blue ones. Even now when we buy a pack of toothbrushes I bin the blue ones. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtyseconds Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Yes. Did a thing where we asked our kids kick boxing club what colour they like hoodies and stuff. And not that blue was the BIG answer. And not a few. Virtually all of hundreds of kids. South Bristol thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
