Great collection of memes, though my favorite is "Did we run out of colors?". Drives me crazy; on an auto forum I follow, how excited people get over a new shade of... gray.
I will simply note in passing that I am seeing some very colourful cars lately. I speak of the lime green ones. So odd.
Apparently (in the UK at least) the overwhelming desire for monochrome cars is because the tend to have higher resale values.

I have had that thought about vehicles many times recently. Such boring colors. Is that gorgeous sunset for real? Dang. Lately the sunsets here have been so bland. That bridge in Vietnam ~ wow! 🤩
Bwahahahahahaha. I love your sense of humor. My favorite was the guy and the horse. I spewed my coffee.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. ♥
O that’s just great now the Reflecting Pool got Monkeys in it.
Rade/Anvil: Just had to go out this morning and I paid attention to cars. There are a few with real colors, mostly red or dark blue, but there are very few of those. Probably 95% of cars are dull indefinite shades of grey or occasionally brown.
NickM: I suppose that's possible, but most people who buy a car expect to keep it for many years. It's hard to predict what used-car buyers' preferences will be a decade in the future.
Paula: The sky photo is real as far as I know. The bridge definitely is. Interesting design concept.
Sandee: That guy's lucky to be alive, considering how hard horses can kick.
Tim: They can only be an improvement at this point.
