It’s a colourful world
Yup, it is. Whether we mean it figuratively or literally our world is filled with colour. Even the shows have got it like ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ [everything comes in shades of gray].
If you’re in the pink, it means your health is pretty good and if you’re pinched black and blue (it’s true literally as well!), you definitely look unsightly for a while till the bruises disappear. If someone or something has a greenish tinge, it’s probably visible although slightly. Being purple in the face can mean you’re so enraged that you simply can’t wait to give them a piece of your mind. The idea of blue in the face differs from you look blue. The latter means feeling down while the former indicates that you’re possibly feeling cold.
There’s nothing wrong with having yellow skin [of Chinese origin] unless you have the yellow fever or you’re accused of being yellow (i.e. cowardly). Meanwhile, the whites [Caucasians] and the redskins [Red Indians] have skin colours as seen. If you’re nicely browned; you’re doing great with your summer or suntan. Of course, the same cannot be said for lobster-red skin.
It is also best to get out of someone’s way if that someone has a black look on his face as he is liable to vent his feelings on you. It has been such a nice moment colour-coding this article. You might want to put it in black and white.
