Older Charge (upon seeing my new handbag): I’ve never seen a purple purse! I like that!
Younger Charge: Purple is my favorite color! No wait, what is that other color that’s like purple?
Older Charge: Blue?
Younger Charge: No…
Me: Pink?
Younger Charge: No, that other color. Like that on that picture (points to a drawing on the table.) Green.
Older Charge: Green?
Younger Charge: Yes, green! Green is my favorite color!
Older Charge: But green isn’t like purple at all.
Younger Charge (angrily): It is to me.

It’s true! Green and purple share the same attitude. Both slightly edgy colours, especially when seen together.

Man, that is Dusty and Red right there. With Red being the one who likes green because it is like purple.

Purple minus red equals blue.
Green minus yellow equals blue.
So of course they’re kind of alike – they have blue in common.

Friday and Magpie, you make good points…I wasn’t sure how amusing this would be to people who don’t know the charges, but it tickled me enough to want to share it.

It tickled me, but I was not tickled pink. Just normal-colored tickled.
