Subject: [CR]The worst color and soap opera

Thank Heavens no one has stepped forward to champion chartreuse! The only thing this color should appear on or in is Absinthe, that mysterious Wormwood and alcohol concoction 19th century artists were so fond of. The Chartreuse Fairy, as it was sometimes termed.

Some wag (Oscar Wilde?) once remarked that "Absinthe maketh the tarte grow fonder."

Not much bicycling content in this post, but there has been a real paucity of such, anyway, in the recent threads about individual taste in converting to fixed gear, what bike would one keep if limited to only one and the worse color.Soap Opera has attained legitimacy here of late.
