Having favorite color leads to startling lack of depth

Orange is a great color. It’s cheerful and spontaneous and fun and not so popular as to be irrelevant, but prevalent enough that it doesn’t have to go by a ridiculous Crayola name. (If you so choose it as your favorite color — as I encourage you to, if you haven’t got that figured out yet — be prepared to be the only one sticking up for it during awkward icebreaker games.) But it got out of hand after a fashion, as do all such almost-cute obsessions.
