I saw this and thought of you...
I went to my favourite restaurant in Rotorua (which am in New Zealandlands) and ordered a 'berry parfait' and received ...
this...
No I did not re-arrange it for amusement value and Goddamnit it's almost magenta too...
Thought you might like it... er.. by which I mean... oh blush!

'ningles all,
I checked under my pillow and yup, the hangover fairy's been!
EDIT: I do wonder at how stupid kids today are. Just had a kid's quiz show on TV and they could only get 60% of the questions right.
Admittedly that's not too bad but they failed to ntice that every single answer was 'Red'.

Was one of the questions
'What is the colour code for fisting'?

Yup me too.
They were getting questions lik 'Mars is know as the what colour planet' and What colour do you get if you mix red and yellow'.
Fucking guests. I go to three supermarkets just so I can fit in the budget for brekkie; bread, bagals, croissants, brown and white bread, fresh coffee, cheese, ham, cereal and tea. Obviously not good enough for some though as I just found one tucking into my food from the fridge. I don't care how it sounds but it's always the Asian guest too.

So did they reply "orange" to the second question
only to be told they were wrong for some spurious QI-like reason?

I always find it amazing
that some people don't know what you get if you mix two colours...it's something I've known since before I can remember.

Then again it's not quite reliably true with paints
because if the red is a little bit inclined towards purple and the yellow is a little bit inclined towards green, you end up with sludge. Orange only really comes from orange-red mixed with orange-yellow. And then there's mixing coloured lights, which is completely counter-intuitive.
