• 0:29
  I Hate Talking: Welcome to episode 34 of I Hate Talking.
• 0:32
  I Hate Talking: Hi everyone.
• 0:33
  I Hate Talking: So we're pleased to announce that there is a new podcast coming out.
• 0:39
  I Hate Talking: Woohoo.
• 0:41
  I Hate Talking: And it is not done by us, but it will be done under the auspices of, I hate talking.
• 0:48
  I Hate Talking: Oh, I hope that's our word for the day, cause I don't know that word.
• 0:52
  I Hate Talking: But yes, we are overseeing it.
• 0:56
  I Hate Talking: And occasionally guest starring in it.
• 1:00
  I Hate Talking: And it is by the most adorable little podcaster.
• 1:05
  I Hate Talking: And he goes by the nickname Dark A, and we'll be talking about nature facts.
• 1:11
  I Hate Talking: Yes, he has always been about science from the youngest age, he was the only way we could get him to stop crying as a newborn, like a baby baby, was playing this song about the solar system.
• 1:29
  I Hate Talking: It was the only thing we could do to get him calm.
• 1:32
  I Hate Talking: And by his 3rd birthday, he knew.
• 1:36
  I Hate Talking: Everything there was, it seems like, about the solar system.
• 1:40
  I Hate Talking: Uh, he could teach adults things.
• 1:43
  I Hate Talking: Now he's veered to space, he's veered towards dinosaurs and animals.
• 1:50
  I Hate Talking: Right now, his passion is geography, so he definitely is a science guy, and he wants to share all his nature facts about science with us.
• 2:03
  I Hate Talking: And the show is aptly called Nature Facts with Dark A.
• 2:07
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, so you can find it wherever you find podcasts.
• 2:11
  I Hate Talking: Look it up.
• 2:12
  I Hate Talking: It, they're very short episodes, and it is literally a small child teaching us about nature facts.
• 2:20
  I Hate Talking: And we plan to have episodes drop every Friday and like my co-host said, relatively short episodes.
• 2:30
  I Hate Talking: So just little snippets of nature facts that you can enjoy on your Friday morning.
• 2:36
  I Hate Talking: And I will also put in just a little caveat that we don't necessarily fact check him.
• 2:42
  I Hate Talking: But any time in the past, I have fact-checked about anything, he is right.
• 2:47
  I Hate Talking: He reads, he checks out books from the library all the time on science.
• 2:52
  I Hate Talking: Any time he says something and I look it up, I'm like, oh, you were correct.
• 2:57
  I Hate Talking: So we are not, at least at this point, fact checking him, but I actually would take His facts serious with a grain of salt.
• 3:07
  I Hate Talking: Exactly.
• 3:08
  I Hate Talking: So small children sharing facts, and now you have some large children sharing facts that may or may not be accurate, -- but -- they are here we are, sure we're kids too.
• 3:20
  I Hate Talking: And at heart.
• 3:22
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, share the podcast with your family, and if you know, uh kids, especially would probably enjoy listening to other kids talk about science, I think that'd be super helpful.
• 3:33
  I Hate Talking: So we will put a link to the show in the show notes so that you can find it more easily, and then we will move on to our word of the episode on this podcast, I Hate Talking, which is the word auspices.
• 3:48
  I Hate Talking: Yes, I don't know that word.
• 3:50
  I Hate Talking: I'm excited to learn it.
• 3:51
  I Hate Talking: So you were correct in sort of the guess in terms of oversight as sort of giving a definition of that word in the modern context, usually will be used in the phrase under the auspices of, and that is like the phrase that is used that contains that word and you probably won't really hear it too frequently used apart from that phrase.
• 4:17
  I Hate Talking: Yes, OK, side note, I'm pretty sure I've heard that phrase you just said.
• 4:21
  I Hate Talking: I always thought they said under the office of, is that true or is that a completely separate thing I'm hearing?
• 4:29
  I Hate Talking: I think you're just making up a word that may be one that's in your Vocabulary vocabulary that is not at all what they're saying.
• 4:41
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 4:42
  I Hate Talking: All right, go on then.
• 4:43
  I Hate Talking: So under the Ostrich Um, what was it?
• 4:49
  I Hate Talking: Now, we're not talking about flightless birds.
• 4:51
  I Hate Talking: It's not the ostrich or emu or penguin or dodo bird.
• 4:54
  I Hate Talking: It is auspices, auspices.
• 4:59
  I Hate Talking: Yes, and the spelling is A U S T I C E S Auspices.
• 5:06
  I Hate Talking: So it means that it has.
• 5:10
  I Hate Talking: The frame of reference of patronage, support, or sponsorship.
• 5:15
  I Hate Talking: So basically the authority.
• 5:18
  I Hate Talking: Of some office or person giving this other party.
• 5:25
  I Hate Talking: Some sort of power or authority to do something under their name or sponsorship is essentially what it means.
• 5:34
  I Hate Talking: Right, OK, have you heard the phrase under the office of?
• 5:39
  I Hate Talking: No, I don't think I have.
• 5:40
  I Hate Talking: Are they always saying under the ostrich of auspices auspices.
• 5:48
  I Hate Talking: Oh no, I can't get that word.
• 5:51
  I Hate Talking: Under the auspices.
• 5:53
  I Hate Talking: Is that a phrase you've heard?
• 5:54
  I Hate Talking: Yes, that's the only phrase that I've heard.
• 5:57
  I Hate Talking: So, I think I've always heard this then and since I don't know the word auspices.
• 6:05
  I Hate Talking: I've always thought they say office of, like, under the office of president or under the office of pastor or whatever.
• 6:15
  I Hate Talking: My brain must have always equated that cause that's the word I know.
• 6:20
  I Hate Talking: Now it is interesting that when you Google this that I think maybe even the AI is getting confused because they are perhaps reading some incorrect things from.
• 6:31
  I Hate Talking: The world of all things text that they are trained upon.
• 6:36
  I Hate Talking: Because that does actually say that under the office of is a phrase that means reporting to or being subordinate to a specific office or position within an organization.
• 6:46
  I Hate Talking: Man, I should work for AI.
• 6:48
  I Hate Talking: Uh, you might do a better job.
• 6:50
  I Hate Talking: But when you just Google under the office of, it does come up with some things of.
• 6:58
  I Hate Talking: Not necessarily that idea, but.
• 7:02
  I Hate Talking: Office of Undersecretaries.
• 7:05
  I Hate Talking: So, the actual title being Under in.
• 7:10
  I Hate Talking: The title of that person.
• 7:12
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 7:13
  I Hate Talking: His auspices come up in that whole thing?
• 7:17
  I Hate Talking: Yes, if you Google under the auspices of you get tons of results, and that is one of the things that we'll be talking about because the etymology of this particular word is actually quite interesting.
• 7:26
  I Hate Talking: Hey, teach me.
• 7:28
  I Hate Talking: So, like I mentioned, in the modern usage, auspices does mean patronage, support, sponsorship under the authority of some higher office.
• 7:38
  I Hate Talking: And that will typically only be used at least in things that I've heard and read.
• 7:45
  I Hate Talking: In the phrase under the auspices of.
• 7:48
  I Hate Talking: But the original word comes from the Latin.
• 7:55
  I Hate Talking: From the word aspects, which means observer of birds.
• 8:01
  I Hate Talking: And -- like -- an ostrich, what?
• 8:04
  I Hate Talking: So I do not believe that the etymology in any way relates to the actual word ostrich, but it comes from.
• 8:13
  I Hate Talking: Even further up in the etymology history of the word Avis, which is Latin for bird, and specter, which is Latin to look, and those were put together and made into the Latin word aspects.
• 8:30
  I Hate Talking: And then came to be used as auspice um and then auspices in the modern day English.
• 8:37
  I Hate Talking: Wow.
• 8:39
  I Hate Talking: Now the reason that this is interesting is because.
• 8:43
  I Hate Talking: Why would sponsorship or authority being delegated have anything to do with birds?
• 8:51
  I Hate Talking: Because We're watching them.
• 8:55
  I Hate Talking: I don't know why.
• 8:58
  I Hate Talking: So the reason that these people were observers of birds or literally bird watchers was because that they were looking for a divine or prophetic token.
• 9:11
  I Hate Talking: So they were essentially watching for omens in the flight of birds hoping for some sort of divine message.
• 9:20
  I Hate Talking: Either one of favorability or approval or support.
• 9:24
  I Hate Talking: OK, so they're not under the authority of something.
• 9:28
  I Hate Talking: They are looking to like a higher power for favor.
• 9:32
  I Hate Talking: Precisely.
• 9:34
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 9:35
  I Hate Talking: So that is very different.
• 9:37
  I Hate Talking: I'm thinking of it as like, under the authority of like somebody, oh, I guess not.
• 9:42
  I Hate Talking: So, cause I'm thinking about it, like, there's somebody and these are their subordinates.
• 9:48
  I Hate Talking: But it still is, right?
• 9:50
  I Hate Talking: Like they are still looking for approval by a higher power.
• 9:56
  I Hate Talking: Precisely, and it's not the bird that is the higher power in this particular context, but the divine being that is communicating through the birds.
• 10:10
  I Hate Talking: So as you look at this usage of the word with bird watchers looking for omens in Latin times and being used in the English language in the 1400s, 1500s.
• 10:26
  I Hate Talking: Up into the mid 1600s as any indication of future events.
• 10:32
  I Hate Talking: Especially favorable.
• 10:34
  I Hate Talking: So around the 1630s to 1650s, it extended the meaning of the word to give the sense of benevolent influence of a greater power, influence exerted on behalf of someone or something.
• 10:49
  I Hate Talking: So basically the birdwatchers were looking for favorable approval or quote unquote sponsorship from this divine being and now hospices means that there is a higher person.
• 11:04
  I Hate Talking: Giving their authority to a particular person of which they are delegating that particular authority or sponsorship.
• 11:13
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 11:13
  I Hate Talking: So that is both our announcement that I Hate Talking has a new podcast that is not really ours but is under the auspices of I Hate Talking, Nature Facts with Dark A, as well as our word or phrase of the episode, auspices.
• 11:32
  I Hate Talking: OK, so, just working this out one more time because I am a verbal processor.
• 11:39
  I Hate Talking: So Nature Facts with Dark Day is under our auspices because we oversee his podcast and he cannot physically create one without us helping him.
• 11:57
  I Hate Talking: And there's also the aspect of sponsorship, which is in the definition of auspices because we are in fact paying for that podcast to be produced and hosted.
• 12:07
  I Hate Talking: Yes, we're sponsoring him.
• 12:09
  I Hate Talking: Financially and otherwise.
• 12:12
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 12:13
  I Hate Talking: And if you're wondering, I hate Talking does not currently have any sponsorships.
• 12:18
  I Hate Talking: So if you would like to advertise or sponsor this podcast, please reach out to us and let us know.
• 12:24
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, we'd love that.
• 12:25
  I Hate Talking: That would be amazing.
• 12:27
  I Hate Talking: Just picture your advertisement right here, right now.
• 12:31
  I Hate Talking: I don't know if you'd picture it.
• 12:33
  I Hate Talking: Or would you -- Hear it in your -- mind.
• 12:38
  I Hate Talking: You would hear it, and then you would picture it in your brain.
• 12:43
  I Hate Talking: I suppose so.
• 12:45
  I Hate Talking: Do you picture?
• 12:46
  I Hate Talking: Sounds in your mind?
• 12:48
  I Hate Talking: Oh yes.
• 12:49
  I Hate Talking: I don't think you would picture them though, when you, I don't know if there is a word for like.
• 12:56
  I Hate Talking: Listening aspect per se of picturing something in your mind and you are theorizing in your mind how something sounds.
• 13:06
  I Hate Talking: So, there's a brain thing with that.
• 13:09
  I Hate Talking: I don't know.
• 13:09
  I Hate Talking: It's not a normal thing.
• 13:11
  I Hate Talking: I'm looking at what it is called, like, The number 13 is purple.
• 13:16
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, what?
• 13:17
  I Hate Talking: like.
• 13:18
  I Hate Talking: M is blue.
• 13:20
  I Hate Talking: The word M is the letter M is blue, 13's purple.
• 13:25
  I Hate Talking: What are you talking about, you know?
• 13:26
  I Hate Talking: But it's like some brain thing that they Picture it in their head, and that's how it connects, and it's actually like a genius theme.
• 13:34
  I Hate Talking: I was gonna say like, hey, just like that.
• 13:36
  I Hate Talking: I can't find what it's called.
• 13:38
  I Hate Talking: Maybe we'll have to do some research on this particular topic because it sounds like we are very ill prepared to talk about that in the remainder of this episode, -- but perhaps -- a future we can cut this out then and talk about it another time.
• 13:50
  I Hate Talking: Or you can tease it because this would be like a teaser for the upcoming episode on the phrase that we don't even know what it's called.
• 13:58
  I Hate Talking: It might be called this synesia.
• 14:02
  I Hate Talking: I don't even, why won't even load?
• 14:04
  I Hate Talking: Right, cause you didn't picture it in your mind, so AI didn't know what you're looking for.
• 14:10
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I think that's it, right?
• 14:13
  I Hate Talking: It's like 3 is apricot.
• 14:15
  I Hate Talking: OK, well, our little podcast host, Nature Facts, which are gay, actually has undiagnosed.
• 14:25
  I Hate Talking: Synethia Syneesia, even at a young age, he would be like, The number 2 is the color purple.
• 14:35
  I Hate Talking: Like what are you talking about?
• 14:37
  I Hate Talking: You big or the letter O is lavender.
• 14:42
  I Hate Talking: And talking to other people and stuff, there's an actual thought process, and we'll talk about this later.
• 14:52
  I Hate Talking: We'll research it more maybe if people are interested and we can figure it out.
• 14:55
  I Hate Talking: He sees the world in colors like that.
• 14:59
  I Hate Talking: And at a very young age, was really good at math because he saw them not as numbers, but as colors.
• 15:08
  I Hate Talking: So as you're saying this, it's perfect because we're talking about this little podcaster that loves science and sharing information with the world, and he does see pictures in his head when you're talking to him.
• 15:24
  I Hate Talking: Well, there you go.
• 15:25
  I Hate Talking: I wonder what color somebody's ad would be on our podcast.
• 15:30
  I Hate Talking: I, I instantly thought green.
• 15:33
  I Hate Talking: I don't know why.
• 15:34
  I Hate Talking: Is that because it's money?
• 15:35
  I Hate Talking: Is that?
• 15:35
  I Hate Talking: Or it's my favorite color.
• 15:37
  I Hate Talking: My favorite color is green.
• 15:39
  I Hate Talking: I'm not sure.
• 15:40
  I Hate Talking: I pictured purple because that is the color of all our iconography, as well as our podcasting, studio equipment and software.
• 15:50
  I Hate Talking: It's not your favorite color, right?
• 15:52
  I Hate Talking: But you've actually always been interested in the color purple.
• 15:55
  I Hate Talking: Your drink you're holding right now is purple.
• 15:58
  I Hate Talking: It is.
• 15:59
  I Hate Talking: OK, let's talk about that.
• 16:01
  I Hate Talking: Where does your deep love for this color come from?
• 16:05
  I Hate Talking: I don't know if I as a child had deep love for colors.
• 16:10
  I Hate Talking: Uh, I was actually as a child.
• 16:13
  I Hate Talking: Enjoyed Telling people that my favorite color was gray when they would ask what my favorite color is and the typical, you know, getting to know a little child, what's your favorite color?
• 16:24
  I Hate Talking: What's your favorite animal, blah blah blah.
• 16:26
  I Hate Talking: So it's a random color.
• 16:27
  I Hate Talking: And I think I did it in part because it was so not normal.
• 16:32
  I Hate Talking: That people would be sort of thrown off that my favorite color was great, but it also was.
• 16:38
  I Hate Talking: One of my favorite colors and a lot of my current dress as well as in my childhood, especially, was very colorless and a lot of grays and blacks and so on and so forth.
• 16:53
  I Hate Talking: Mhm.
• 16:54
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, and still to this day, we always tell people your favorite color is gray, and just Interesting to watch their reaction cause it's not a typical color people gravitate towards.
• 17:07
  I Hate Talking: And then there was probably sometime in my early teen years that something switched and.
• 17:15
  I Hate Talking: I did enjoy other colors and especially wearing other colors, a lot of bright old oranges, maybe some reds.
• 17:25
  I Hate Talking: Uh, we're in there, not so much purples or anything in that color spectrum, but definitely a lot of orange, also sort of like maybe the neon green.
• 17:37
  I Hate Talking: Do you remember that when we were newlyweds or before we got married, we were making our registry.
• 17:43
  I Hate Talking: I don't know, people don't seem to do that too much anymore.
• 17:46
  I Hate Talking: We made a registry for like people that were coming to our wedding could buy items we need to start our new home.
• 17:55
  I Hate Talking: And then I remember you wanted a purple bedspread.
• 17:59
  I Hate Talking: And I was like, how come?
• 18:00
  I Hate Talking: You're like, it's cause it's royal.
• 18:02
  I Hate Talking: Like, it's, you'd be like kings and queens.
• 18:05
  I Hate Talking: Do you remember that?
• 18:06
  I Hate Talking: I do.
• 18:07
  I Hate Talking: I think we -- did -- get like -- a -- it was for the guest bed.
• 18:11
  I Hate Talking: I was for the guest bed.
• 18:12
  I Hate Talking: I made us get white for our bed.
• 18:14
  I Hate Talking: We had a like a black one, yeah, -- it was doubled and then we -- still have it, yeah.
• 18:18
  I Hate Talking: Our guest bed still has it.
• 18:21
  I Hate Talking: It's double sided.
• 18:22
  I Hate Talking: You can have black or purple.
• 18:24
  I Hate Talking: And I like, I mean, purple is fine color, but I just like them for aesthetic, the white, browns, very neutral colors, very boring, I understand.
• 18:36
  I Hate Talking: And then our sheets are purple.
• 18:39
  I Hate Talking: They are, because our bed is a purple bed.
• 18:43
  I Hate Talking: So, a little bit of like, I think that's probably the only color.
• 18:46
  I Hate Talking: I don't know if you can get other colored sheets from purple.
• 18:48
  I Hate Talking: From the company purple.
• 18:51
  I Hate Talking: Yes, cause we have other sheets for the bed too.
• 18:54
  I Hate Talking: Y'all can look up.
• 18:57
  I Hate Talking: Uh, purple bed.
• 18:59
  I Hate Talking: That can be a podcast in the future.
• 19:02
  I Hate Talking: Adam had severe back pain for years, until we got this special bed.
• 19:08
  I Hate Talking: And it was within weeks, right?
• 19:12
  I Hate Talking: Less than maybe a month?
• 19:13
  I Hate Talking: Your back pain was gone or significantly gone.
• 19:19
  I Hate Talking: True.
• 19:20
  I Hate Talking: Yes, there was a lot of other strategies that was in play for trying to reduce and eliminate my back pain, but I do believe the purple bed was a big contributor to the elimination of my back issues in that time frame.
• 19:35
  I Hate Talking: And, you know, maybe who knows, maybe purple will sponsor us.
• 19:39
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, we still use it.
• 19:40
  I Hate Talking: It's a good bed.
• 19:41
  I Hate Talking: But OK, why do you think, going back to the colors that we like, Why do you think green is my favorite color?
• 19:48
  I Hate Talking: You, I don't know if I've ever asked you if you know why.
• 19:51
  I Hate Talking: There's a specific reason.
• 19:53
  I Hate Talking: Now, I don't know if I know the specific reason.
• 19:56
  I Hate Talking: It is interesting to note that uh the human eye can detect a wider range of shades of green.
• 20:05
  I Hate Talking: I think this was alluded to or maybe even explicitly stated in an episode of Fargo where that has to do with the fact that humans are prey animals and they therefore need to see a higher degree.
• 20:21
  I Hate Talking: Of green colors in order to detect predators within an environment that has plants based on the chlorophyll process that will typically result in an abundance of green plants.
• 20:35
  I Hate Talking: So do you think green is my favorite color because of my eyesight?
• 20:40
  I Hate Talking: I do not, but I just thought that was an interesting anecdote to throw in there.
• 20:44
  I Hate Talking: That is super interesting.
• 20:45
  I Hate Talking: Also, last week I went to the eye doctor again and Yeah, my eye prescription once again and It was pretty embarrassing when he was like, yeah, this is ridiculous what you're on.
• 20:57
  I Hate Talking: Like, we got up this significantly, which we knew I had been about a year and a half since I'd been.
• 21:03
  I Hate Talking: We knew my eyesight had gone worse, but It is not because of It's not because of being safe from predators.
• 21:14
  I Hate Talking: No, I'm not too worried about that.
• 21:17
  I Hate Talking: We're um in my little home here.
• 21:20
  I Hate Talking: It's been my favorite color since I can remember, though, do you know what color would be my second or pretty much probably my true favorite color?
• 21:31
  I Hate Talking: I would say purple.
• 21:33
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, -- so I definitely gravitate towards -- you're wearing a purple sweater right now.
• 21:37
  I Hate Talking: I definitely gravitate towards purple or a pinkish, not the bright neon pink.
• 21:44
  I Hate Talking: The lavender pinkish colors, purple colors.
• 21:49
  I Hate Talking: I um, I Probably feel like they're more actually my favorite.
• 21:54
  I Hate Talking: But ever since I can remember.
• 21:57
  I Hate Talking: Green has been my favorite color, and it's because my grandma, my favorite person in the whole world, aside from you.
• 22:05
  I Hate Talking: Her favorite color is green.
• 22:07
  I Hate Talking: And I can't think of anyone I want to be more like than my grandmother.
• 22:15
  I Hate Talking: And I think Because of that, I made green be my favorite color.
• 22:21
  I Hate Talking: Her house was green.
• 22:22
  I Hate Talking: She literally painted the exterior of her house bright green.
• 22:26
  I Hate Talking: It was shocking when you drove by it.
• 22:30
  I Hate Talking: Green was just everywhere in her home.
• 22:33
  I Hate Talking: And I think because I want to be her so much, even at a young age.
• 22:38
  I Hate Talking: I said green is my favorite color.
• 22:41
  I Hate Talking: And I find myself, even today as an adult, I cannot not say green is my favorite color, cause I think of her every time I say green is my favorite color.
• 22:52
  I Hate Talking: And who knows, maybe somewhere deep in my psyche in a early childhood memory that there was somebody that I looked up to and their favorite color was gray or in some form or fashion indicated the importance of the color gray that made me like that color as well.
• 23:12
  I Hate Talking: Maybe.
• 23:12
  I Hate Talking: So that would be super interesting to hear from any of y'all, if you have a favorite color, if you know why or Even if you don't know why, let us know what your favorite color is, because our children have specific colors.
• 23:28
  I Hate Talking: They don't change.
• 23:29
  I Hate Talking: Our 11 kid changes slightly, like yellow and green, which are similar hues.
• 23:36
  I Hate Talking: But all of them.
• 23:39
  I Hate Talking: Have been like from birth, like a child, gravitating towards a very specific color which makes our lives easy.
• 23:47
  I Hate Talking: Because everything that's red belongs to him.
• 23:51
  I Hate Talking: Everything that's blue belongs to that one.
• 23:53
  I Hate Talking: And it is very separate.
• 23:55
  I Hate Talking: I wonder why they gravitate at such a young age.
• 24:01
  I Hate Talking: I don't feel like we did anything different, but maybe we did, or maybe someone in their lives influenced us that we don't know.
• 24:08
  I Hate Talking: Or perhaps it's that emphasis of individuality that plays a part in that as well because that was part of the reason that I claimed gray as my favorite color was to stand out among my peers.
• 24:22
  I Hate Talking: And likewise, it is interesting to note that of our four kids that none of them are the same color and that they in some form or fashion seem to have claimed their color in a different color scheme from any of the other brothers.
• 24:38
  I Hate Talking: That's true, cause they want to stand out.
• 24:41
  I Hate Talking: Is this going back to when we talked about how subconsciously, I'm trying to fit in with people, is subconsciously, I want to be my grandmother.
• 24:49
  I Hate Talking: So I want to like what she likes.
• 24:52
  I Hate Talking: Where you don't want to be like people, so you like gray cause your average person doesn't like gray.
• 24:59
  I Hate Talking: I don't like that.
• 25:01
  I Hate Talking: I want to fit in so much.
• 25:03
  I Hate Talking: I don't want to be so adaptable, but also, side note, everyone in the world should know my grandmother because she was an amazing person.
• 25:15
  I Hate Talking: So that may play a part in it.
• 25:17
  I Hate Talking: However, you'll maybe be happy to know that green is not the most common favorite color.
• 25:23
  I Hate Talking: Is it?
• 25:24
  I Hate Talking: Can I guess?
• 25:25
  I Hate Talking: Don't tell me.
• 25:25
  I Hate Talking: Is it blue?
• 25:26
  I Hate Talking: -- It is -- blue.
• 25:27
  I Hate Talking: OK, I had my college roommate.
• 25:30
  I Hate Talking: I remember we all chatted about this at one point, and she said blue was her favorite color because there was no ugly shade of blue.
• 25:37
  I Hate Talking: And I loved that.
• 25:39
  I Hate Talking: It's true.
• 25:40
  I Hate Talking: My answer was, I don't know, I like green, cause my grandma liked green.
• 25:43
  I Hate Talking: But there are really ugly shades of green.
• 25:46
  I Hate Talking: I loved her thought process that there's no ugly shade of blue.
• 25:52
  I Hate Talking: And that is some of the popular theories on why blue is the most popular favorite color is that it is typically associated with universal experiences like clear skies and clean water, and so to your point, there is no ugly blue color and is actually associated with cleanliness.
• 26:13
  I Hate Talking: And good experience.
• 26:15
  I Hate Talking: What is the most hated color?
• 26:17
  I Hate Talking: You figure that out.
• 26:19
  I Hate Talking: What would your guess be?
• 26:20
  I Hate Talking: What is the most disliked color?
• 26:24
  I Hate Talking: I guess sort of like a putrid yellow.
• 26:28
  I Hate Talking: Like a mustard yellow or like like a vomit yellow.
• 26:32
  I Hate Talking: Is that yellow or is that more like green?
• 26:36
  I Hate Talking: It is almost green, but it's, I, -- I would classify it more as a -- yellow.
• 26:41
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 26:42
  I Hate Talking: So, according to Wikipedia, there is a specificantone color, 448C.
• 26:49
  I Hate Talking: It is described as a drab, dark brown and informally dubbed the ugliest color in the world.
• 26:56
  I Hate Talking: -- So that -- is and what's it look like, like on the hue, so it's, is it like a brown, like chocolate brown?
• 27:03
  I Hate Talking: Or what tone are we talking about?
• 27:07
  I Hate Talking: Well, we'll put it in the show notes as well.
• 27:10
  I Hate Talking: Right.
• 27:11
  I Hate Talking: Oh, it's like a greenish.
• 27:14
  I Hate Talking: It's got like a green tone to it.
• 27:15
  I Hate Talking: -- It does have -- a little bit of a green.
• 27:16
  I Hate Talking: I would classify it in the brown -- color -- scheme, newborn poop.
• 27:21
  I Hate Talking: That's the color of, that's the color of newborns.
• 27:25
  I Hate Talking: Huh.
• 27:26
  I Hate Talking: I don't particularly find it.
• 27:28
  I Hate Talking: Like offensive Right, OK, is this offensive to talk about that you don't mind cleaning up newborn poop?
• 27:38
  I Hate Talking: I do.
• 27:39
  I Hate Talking: And that was like our deal, especially cause like, I had just given birth, so it was your job to change diapers.
• 27:46
  I Hate Talking: If y'all have ever had a baby, or just prepping you for when you do, A newborn has a very specific type of a diaper that comes out in their diaper, and I hate cleaning it.
• 28:00
  I Hate Talking: I don't mind when they're a little bit older, but that newborn, a day or two old, but you don't mind it, and it is that color.
• 28:10
  I Hate Talking: I suppose so.
• 28:12
  I Hate Talking: I'll have to see if I can find a color of what I'm thinking of as I'm picturing it in my mind this color because you can't share that.
• 28:21
  I Hate Talking: No, I'm saying this sort of yellowish, greenish and that is what I guess because I would have, I guess, erroneously thought that perhaps my most hated color would be in the majority, but I guess as I reflect on that, that would not make sense because my favorite color is far from the majority.
• 28:40
  I Hate Talking: Is it that yellow shirt I wear?
• 28:43
  I Hate Talking: Is that the color you're picturing?
• 28:45
  I Hate Talking: I can't picture the shirt, but it's probably, it's probably why I can't picture it, because I just can't bring it in my mind because I was so offensive.
• 28:55
  I Hate Talking: I haven't worn it in years, but I'd wear it and I'd get tons of compliments, and you would always tell me you hated it.
• 29:03
  I Hate Talking: Y'all, to Adam's credit, he is so kind and very complimentary.
• 29:09
  I Hate Talking: I'm not trying to bash him at all.
• 29:11
  I Hate Talking: I had a specific shirt, he hated me wearing.
• 29:16
  I Hate Talking: I don't even own it anymore cause I got rid of it.
• 29:18
  I Hate Talking: Because I know you hated it so much.
• 29:21
  I Hate Talking: They got compliments every time I wore it, and it was mustard yellowish.
• 29:29
  I Hate Talking: Maybe a little more brown mustard yellow.
• 29:33
  I Hate Talking: Is that what you're picturing?
• 29:34
  I Hate Talking: Yes, that's the color.
• 29:35
  I Hate Talking: -- So -- I personally thought you just hated the shirt on me.
• 29:38
  I Hate Talking: You just hate the color.
• 29:40
  I Hate Talking: There's something about that color shirt.
• 29:42
  I Hate Talking: If I ever find that shirt in a photo, I will maybe even put it in the stories to share, but Do you know what I'm talking about now that I'm talking about it?
• 29:55
  I Hate Talking: Yes, I believe that is even the color that I'm thinking of.
• 29:58
  I Hate Talking: Maybe that's why I didn't like it.
• 30:00
  I Hate Talking: I guess so.
• 30:01
  I Hate Talking: The reason I remember it is because I always got compliments when I wore it.
• 30:06
  I Hate Talking: I knew my husband hated it, so it was like this hard back and forth between, do I want to make you enjoy what I'm wearing versus somebody else.
• 30:17
  I Hate Talking: I eventually gave it away because your opinion matters the most to me.
• 30:21
  I Hate Talking: Indeed.
• 30:23
  I Hate Talking: So perhaps some content that we can consider next time for a future episode on synesthesia.
• 30:31
  I Hate Talking: And as we wrap up this episode, in case you're curious, the purple drink that I was consuming this particular episode was a IPA from the makers of beer at Wicked Weed Brewing called Pernicious IPA.
• 30:48
  I Hate Talking: Mhm.
• 30:49
  I Hate Talking: Very good.
• 30:51
  I Hate Talking: And do you like that, the logo and all that?
• 30:54
  I Hate Talking: Does that appeal to you?
• 30:55
  I Hate Talking: The purple color does appeal to me.
• 30:58
  I Hate Talking: It also has a lot of sort of strange looking plants that are outside of the norm, uh, which will perhaps also be a future episode that we can talk about in terms of how non-standard nature things are loved by older generations.
• 31:18
  I Hate Talking: All right, sounds great.
• 31:20
  I Hate Talking: Wait, before we leave, are we an older generation?
• 31:25
  I Hate Talking: No, right?
• 31:26
  I Hate Talking: I do find myself associating with things that are Typically used to describe older generations.
• 31:33
  I Hate Talking: I'm still, I feel like we're at the cusp, we've talked about this before.
• 31:38
  I Hate Talking: We're at the cusp of like, just stepping our toe into the older generation, and I'm not having a crisis about it.
• 31:50
  I Hate Talking: But like, I don't believe it until I talk to someone younger, then I'm like, oh man, we're old.
• 31:57
  I Hate Talking: The sandwich generation is what I'm experiencing right now, that sandwich generation where the older parents and young kids, and we're in between dealing with both.
• 32:09
  I Hate Talking: We're not old yet.
• 32:11
  I Hate Talking: Perhaps some things we can consider on a future episode.
• 32:15
  I Hate Talking: Sounds good.
• 32:16
  I Hate Talking: So from your friends at I hate Talking, until next time, remember, it is only through talking that we begin the journey to understanding.
